His expertise covers hepatology and gastroenterology, including FibroScan, colonoscopy, and gastroscopy procedures.
I recently went for a first consultation with Dr Selvapatt and was immensely impressed both by his expertise and his empathy. I was extremely anxious about a medical issue - Dr Selvapatt immediately understood the potential problem and the reasons for my anxiety. He was extremely reassuring and explained the likely causes of the issue and the possible tests and treatments very clearly. Throughout the tests I needed Dr Nowlan explained each step carefully and put me completely at ease. Afterwards he summed up the medical issues with great patience and kindness- and I left the consultation feeling so glad that I had been able to see Dr Selvapatt. He really is an outstanding doctor. Dr Selvapatt's PA Natasha is both very efficient and extremely helpful and kind.
An excellent experience with a wonderful team. I couldn’t have asked for a better doctor than Dr Sepvapatt as he was so patient and great at articulating exactly what he was doing and looking for throughout the whole process. I felt/ feel very reassured and supported throughout my ongoing treatment.
Dr Selvapatt and Natasha have gone above and beyond to help me, I could not ask for a better, more responsive medical team and feel secure in their hands, Thank you
