Reviews
This doctor is very thorough and knowledgeable. He explains very clearly the purpose of investigations and does not push for unnecessary tests.
Very professional and personable
Very prompt responses every time I contacted Dr Sean/secretary
Clear and thorough diagnosis, went through all the options available and provided a plan of action. A patient always has high expectations for a quick and easy fix, my expectations were realistic and I’m happy with the progress so far.
Dr Seah instilled immediate confidence with his thoughtful, friendly taking of my history. He was meticulous in his approach, kind, and encouraging during a compartment pressure test which put me through the wringer. I would certainly see him again and recommend him unreservedly.
I had one piece of constructive criticism more about the (generally excellent) facilities. It would have been helpful to know there was a shower facility available after my very sweaty test. But this is a minor point.
Treatment was for my daughter - Dr Seah was very approachable and put her at ease. He was very thorough and helpful
