Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

HORRIBLE POST-OP CARE!! GO ELSEWHERE.
My sweet mother went to this MD for her endoscopic right total ethmoidectomy today. She was given absolutely ZER0 post operative instructions only given the Afrin nasal spray to take 'as needed'. My mom had over 10 hours of continual nasal bleeding with NO instructions of what to expect after the procedure or any instructions post op! I tried to call the number that was given to her to reach the RN, I left voicemails, and reached no one. Luckily, I am a Registered Nurse myself so I was able to get some guidance but am in total disbelief of the LACK OF POST-OP CARE that was given to her from the staff as a whole! Do yourself a favor and have your loved one go elsewhere so you do not encounter what we had to!!

Disappointing and totally unhelpful visit
Went to Dr Selz for dizziness…was told by neurologist it was a vestibular problem. After extensive and expensive testing was told no ear problems at all, it was “in my head”. Very cold and callous. Three months later have been correctly diagnosed with vestibular problem concerning crystals out of alignment. This problem has been successfully resolved via use of Epley Manuever. My recommendation would be to steer clear of this physician.

Arrogant
Dr selz completely dismissed all of my concerns and was rude from the get go. He acts with a God complex and refused to listen or look at my pictures regarding my concerns, just repeatedly stating that “everything is normal”. Waste of an appointment.

I feel humiliated and experimented on
I went to Dr Selz for a septoplasty. He brushed off all of my questions and concerns leading up to the surgery. 2 weeks later, I took the bandage off to a misshapen bridge, a leaking right nostril for 6 months and the same breathing issues because he did not fix my septum. After my vocal concerns at the 2 week checkup he brushed me off again. Learning very late that I could ask for a refund, I went to him 1 year and 10 months after the surgery. He said I needed a septoplasty and didn’t believe he had given me the original one until he looked at his records. I asked for a refund and he laughed at me and said good luck. Also wanted to set me up with his plastic surgeon as it was the only way to “fix that”. Do not go to this predatory man. He wants money from vulnerable people. He made me feel humiliated, helpless, and experimented on, and will do the same to you while denying any wrongdoing. I’m sorry if this man has ruined your self image and/or health like he did to mine.

Great bedside manner, had a great experience all together! He did a septoplasy, and uvula-something or other, (cannot pronounce it!) Lol! Just had procedure done this morning 6/9/21, nise still bleeding a bit, and throat is a pain level off the chart, brings tears to my eyes swallow but, I have a very high tolerance for meds, hoping he can prescribe something stronger, the oral hydro liquid just is not helping at all..(I'm sure a patient with average tolerance, would get the full effect of the pain med with positive results), I strongly recommend him, as well.as the surgery center in Anna..above and beyond! Very friendly, and helpful staff! Had a absolutely great experience with both doctor, and facility!

I experience pain in my right ear, and it feels stopped up. Can't close my eyes in the shower without holding onto the wall. Did a hearing test and told me I need hearing aids and told me they are expensive. Guess I look like I couldn't afford them. But not sure how hearing aids will help my balance with my eyes closed. Was close to closing time he seemed ready to get on with something else. I'll find another opinion.

Dr Selz is the ruddiest, most obnoxious doctor we have ever had to deal with, & the lady in the front lobby is no better! My husband is in a wheel chair and when we came in , I asked the lady to please push my husbands wheel chair for me. She quickly said" No I won't. I have a bad wrist and I don't wear my wrist guard because it irritates me". She turned and walked away . Ok....I got my husband into the doctors office. The Dr. came in. Never said "Hello" or introduced himself, never offered to shake hands. He asked my husband to get in the examining chair.(it has no arms on it) I explained to the Dr. that my husband is sort of shaky on his feet, so we may want to kind of help him. This Dr. said harshly "No! If he falls there is no one here to help him up...this is NOT a hospital!" In closing, my husband & I are both 85 and yet he stripped us of our dignity and pride. This doctor won't have to ever worry about us again!

Easy scheduling and very friendly staff. There is usually a very short wait time. I haven’t spent more than 20 minutes waiting on my appointment. As soon as you’re back In a room you’re seen pretty quickly. There isn’t a lot of social chatter. He may make a comment or two, but he keeps it short to maximize all patient times. Quick, efficient, and trustworthy.

Rude with god complex..does not listen and interupts. I finally told him to stop, which made him mad, after 5 mins of trying to get him to hear me of my previous esophagus diagnosis. At end of appt..he would not even shake my hand and made a comment that still has me pissed. He stated" sorry, you will have to go back to work" . I have worked since i was 13 with near 30 years in my industry. Mr Selz, you are a prime example of what is wrong with our medical in this country.
