    Dr. Selvakumar spent a lot of time with us in office visits and on the phone. He was willing to change his plan of care to ensure that we were totally comfortable with it and that it was in our daughter's best interest. He is very patient and will explain things in detail! He is a great doctor, especially for us "anxious parents!" We would definitely recommend him!
