Dr Rodney Foale
Dr Selwyn Dexter is one of the kindest and most knowledgeable doctors I have had the pleasure to work with. He is both a kind and wise GP, and a unique medical acupuncturist. I have been referring patients to Dr Dexter for almost 25 years now, first in the setting of an NHS pain clinic, and more recently within the private medical sector. Patients who see Dr Dexter always appreciate the special care that he gives, and come back noticeably better as a result of his treatment. Indeed, a family friend, plagued for many years by migraine, saw Dr Dexter for a course of acupuncture treatment. She now tells me that she has rarely had an attack of migraine since that time. I have also asked Dr Dexter to see family members, for example with pain or with intractable hayfever, and I have to say they have always come back home feeling much better as a result of his expertise!
