Sevgili Selim Hoca ile tanıştığıma gerçekten çok memnunum.Yaklaşık üç sene önce tendon kopması sebebiyle bir tendon bağlama operasyonu geçirmiştim ve sol el işaret parmağım tetik biçimindeydi.İlk ameliyattan iki buçuk sene sonra tendon gevşetme operasyonu için araştırıp Selim Hocayı buldum.Kendisi sakin,samimi ve oldukça gerçekçi bir biçimde ameliyatın nasıl gerçekleşeceğini,sonrasındaki süreçte neler yaşayacağımı ve özellikle de bana acı eşiğimi sorarak;canımın ne kadar acıyabileceğini izah etti.Ben de kabul ettim ve ameliyatımı gerçekleştirdi.Kendisi hekimliğin tüm vasıflarını taşıyan,hastasına güven veren ve oldukça ilgili bir cerrah.Öyle ki yolunuz düştükçe bir hal hatır sormak için bile yanına uğramak isteyebilirsiniz.Kendisine ne kadar teşekkür etsem azdır.Hayatta iyi ki tanışmışım dediğim sayılı insan arasındadır.Hocama tekrar tekrar teşekkür eder,sevgilerimi sunarım.
