I'm just hearing of Dr Selhat's passing now. I'm so sorry for your loss. He was a wonderful doctor. My mother, father, and grandfather were his first patients at his office on the pike. He really did care for our family. I know my mom took his retiring pretty bad. And was there for his party. My sympathies to your family

Dr Selhat was my mother's physician for over 30 years. I just lost her 2 months ago and I know she missed his wisdom and caring when he retired and I will never forget his many opportunities he bestowed his wisdom of medicine during my nursing education. Thank you Dr Selhat you will truly be missed by your patients. My condolences to the Selhat family. Elaine Ciossek(mother Clara Ciossek)

Dr. Selhat was my physician; he was also my friend. He cared for me, and he cared about me. I remember his meticulous approach to patient assessment, his many kindnesses, and his awful jokes. George was a true gentleman. In this era of rapid change in healthcare, he will be sorely missed. -Thomas J. Stringer, Medical Editor and Lucky Patient of Dr. Selhat
