TESTIMONIALS
I had never done a bone scan before. At Yorktown Health, Dr. Shawn George D.O. walked me through each step. He showed me my scan and gave a daily checklist for care. Now I stretch, take supplements, and walk often. I’ve seen changes, and I feel stronger doing daily chore

After a small wrist fracture, I visited Yorktown Health. Dr. Shawn George D.O. reviewed my records and gave real answers. I got a full test, a list of bone foods, and a motion plan. His advice was steady and clear. This visit helped me take charge of my health.
