a bloody good bloke who sticks by his philosophy that no one comes out of surgery with more hair then him. Great sense of humour and humility. I could not imagine a better person in his position

Dr Silburn
Is a very caring and honest man, he is very genuine. If it wasn’t for Dr Silburn my mother would be dead by now, he has saved her life. I am so grateful to him for all he has done for her and her Parkinson’s disease. I am so thankful that he treated my mother and I can’t say enough to praise him for his life saving brain surgery but its not just the surgery but the after care, he continues to care for my mother years later. A truly beautiful and kind man! I am so grateful to him and I wonder how my life would have turned out without him, for he has changed my life for the better. We are all so grateful to him in my family, because life without my mother would have been devastating. Thank you to one of the best Neurologists in the world! (Now we have hope!)

Highly recommend Dr Silburn who literally saved my life when I was suffering from meningo encephalitis. Nothing was a burden and he regularly checked on me and kept my family up to date with progress. I cannot praise Dr Silburn enough as I wouldn’t be alive if it wasn’t for him. He has now progressed on to other parts of neurology but I am certain the underlying care factor and knowledge has progressed with him.

My family was one of those totally devastated by the aftermath of the DBS operation done by this man. There can be no “informed consent “ as we were not told about the real risks in having this operation. Especially the psychological and non motor fall out, Dr Silburn hides behind the Privacy Act when family members want help when left to care for a stranger after DBS. Read the coroners report and be assured that nothing has changed in his attitude and treatment of patients. Warm and pleasant before he takes your money and impossible to get answers from when things don’t work out. He has little respect among his peers who see him as a money grabber. To quote one of them verbatim “ He’s fine when there’s no problems. When there are, he doesn’t want to know.” Be prepared for that when you go to see him about the DBS op. He sells it to you as quickly as possible, then it’s ‘next please’. The Medical Ombudsman has a list of complaints about this man. Look somewhere else.
