Amazing doctor. For a year waiting in the waiting room, I've never heard anyone say anything negative of him but only how great a person he is and how well their surgeries went. Although I did not undergo surgery and cannot give my own experience in that, what I know is that the staff there are very professional driven and always willing to make life easier for you.
I was scheduled by the office for a condition the doctor does not treat. Re-verified with the office twice that the doctor treats specified condition and told yes. Waited a month for the appointment and then wasted another hour in the office completing forms.
I went with a hope to see the doctor to get my knee better if he can help me to fix the problem but instead his PA saw me and scared me and telling me not to walk . It was a terrible scary experience
Llevo tiempo con una rotura en mi nalga derecha y en mi última visita yo esperaba mejor resultado y me mandaron a dar terapia algo gue no me da resultado
Very good Doctor
Exelente
It felt a bit like lead generation for surgery. Waited almost two hours for an appointment in which Dr Seldes was distracted and immediately convinced I need surgery with limited discussion or review of my case.
Good Service
Excelente dr
