About Dr Selina Shaw Dr Selina Shaw is an experienced GP with a specialist focus on the care of people living with Long Covid and related complex chronic conditions. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Dr Shaw developed Long Covid herself. This experience profoundly shaped her clinical perspective and strengthened her commitment to improving care for people living with post-viral illness. Now recovered, she understands first-hand how these conditions can impact health. “Long Covid and related conditions can be life-changing illnesses that affect every part of a person’s life. People need personalised care from a clinician who understands the complexity of these conditions and listens carefully to their experience. My goal is to use the latest scientific research to help patients understand their symptoms, optimise their health, and create a clear path forward.” Understanding Long Covid Long Covid can affect multiple body systems simultaneously, producing a wide range of symptoms including: • Severe fatigue and pain • Post-exertional malaise (worsening of symptoms after activity) • Brain fog and cognitive difficulties • Dizziness and autonomic dysfunction • Palpitations and heart rate instability • Breathlessness and digestive problems • Allergic or mast cell symptoms Because these symptoms involve several interacting systems in the body, they often require specialist assessment and personalised treatment strategies. Areas of Specialist Care Dr Shaw has developed a focused clinical practice specialising in: • Fatigue and Post-Exertional Malaise (PEM) management • Energy envelope and pacing strategies to reduce crashes • Heart-rate monitored pacing and wearable-based autonomic monitoring • Autonomic dysfunction and POTS assessment and treatment • Mast cell activation care with specialist mediator testing • Compounded medications including Low Dose Naltrexone • Post-viral illness treatment strategies • Treatment of acute COVID-19 infection with Metformin Why Patients Trust Dr Shaw Patients value Dr Shaw’s unique combination of: • Lived experience of Long Covid • Medical expertise as a GP • Research-driven treatment approaches • Compassionate and patient-centred care Her consultations focus on helping patients feel heard, understood and supported while developing clear plans for improving their health.
