Dr Hans Seltenreich is a doctor practising at Coastal Digestive Health. He is a Gastroenterologist & Therapeutic Endoscopist and thrilled our members over breakfast with encouragement to look after our bowels and participate in the regular government screening process. Dr Seltenreich was introduced by Gerry who managed the tongue twisting words very well.
He was accompanied by Angela Sunby who is a practice nurse.
Visitors
In addition to our Guest Speakers, we welcomed Simon Jago who brought Helen with him.
