Dr. Gerry George
“I love dentistry because it’s a unique blend of art and science.”
Dr. Gerry George, a passionate dentist, found his calling in the unique relationship between dentist and patient which was the basis for his decision to jump into the dental field. He thrives on open communication and building personalized relationships with each patient. This passion for dentistry, coupled with love for science and hands-on care fuels Dr. George’s commitment to the Fort Mill community.
A South Carolina native, Dr. George attended Bob Jones University before earning his dental degree from the Medical University of South Carolina, where he met his wife, Stephanie Jean. Prior to settling in Fort Mill SC, he gained valuable experience practicing in Seneca and Charleston.
Dr. George is committed to providing the highest quality dental care through ongoing education. He believes it is important to stay up to date with the ever-evolving world of techniques and materials to provide the best treatment for his patients. Beyond his practice, Dr. George actively gives back to the community, both locally and globally through dental mission trips. When not in the office, you can find him enjoying spending time with his wife and three kids (Quinn, Esther, and Isaiah) or pursuing hobbies like woodworking, hiking, and fishing.
Dr. Stephanie Jean George
“I love dentistry because of the relationships we get to build with patients.”
Dr. Stephanie Jean George has been passionate about dentistry since childhood. Her journey began with a playful introduction to the world of teeth as a young girl “assisting” her family dentist in cleaning her siblings’ teeth. This early spark ignited a lifelong dream to become a caring family dentist. Dr. George thrives on building lasting relationships with her patients, providing comprehensive dental care for the whole family.
A Charleston native, Dr. George honed her skills at Wofford College and the Medical University of South Carolina. While her dental career initially focused on pediatric dentistry, she now offers a full range of general dentistry services. Committed to professional growth, she actively participates in the ADA and SCDA.
Beyond her dental practice, Dr. George finds joy in family, travel, and culinary adventures. Her philanthropic spirit shines through her involvement in dental mission trips to Africa, Romania, Ecuador, Thailand, and Peru. Giving back to both her local and global communities is a core value that defines her.
