Very highly recommended! Dr Sibtain is an amazing human being. I went from stage 4 pancreatic cancer, to being in remission after 1 year having had chemotherapy treatment which Dr Sibtain arranged which then gave me the chance to have a liver ablation and Whipple surgery that saved my life. His professional and calming manner always gave me hope and the feeling that I was in safe hands and the best place to be. His team providing treatment and after care are all doing a truly amazing job. Dr Sibtain is like family to me and I am forever grateful to him.

Dr Sibtain is a constant support and I trust his understanding of me as an individual and therefore in him finding the treatments which best suits my condition. He is a gentleman. His manner is kind, gentle and is deeply knowledgable of his craft. I was immediately struck by him greeting us at the doors of the lift.... no knocking at the ‘Emperors door’ for the thumbs up or down! Dr Sibtain takes away this fear, he sits with me, not behind his desk, as we talk through the latest scan or blood test result, and together we find a way forward. I have had both Cyberknife treatment and chemotherapy treatment in tablet form while he has been my Primary Oncologist. I trust in his knowledge. He listens, and am so grateful for his kind and supportive manner and for his undoubted expertise.

Your trust is our top concern, so providers can't pay to alter or remove reviews.
