Dr. Ann Kristine Seltman, MD

I came to her for an anal skin tag. It started as a hemorrhoid following the birth of my daughter. She told me that since I was not having any "pain" and because my primary care physician said that this was to confirm her notes that surgery was not necessary. She said, "Since you are seating down it's obvious you are not in any pain." She didn't even ask me if I was feeling pain. I have been in pain for 2 plus years because of this. I have had to deal with severe itching, bleeding, pain and it's worse in the summer with sweat it turns into rashes and stings and I constantly have "smears" in my underwear. She gave me a sample of fiber and said, "good luck! You wouldn't like the surgery with me anyways." "my patients say that recovery is bad." I DO NOT recommend her! She was completely rude and so was her nurse. The nurse said,"I've had my skin tag for 12 years!"

Very professional and listens to your concerns.

After a physical exam of my anus she asks me, "did you like that?" I didn't answer that. She then said, " i suppose that's not very professional." I said, "I think not!" She also complained that I had asked the receptionist how much longer I would have to wait.

Excellent bedside manner, answered all questions, reviewed options and confirmed that the procedure would be beneficial.

This saint pulled me back from the abyss. Twice. In 4 days. Had the confidence and audacity to lay out a surgical plan 35 minutes before surgery, and then substantially change that plan when additional info was received just before putting me under. Three years later I stilI keep her in my prayers.

Very nice doctor, gentle, caring, gave good explanations and knows what she is talking about. Recommended.
