Hamish was incredible during my visit. He was kind, friendly and explained things well. He made it seem like he was happy to see me even when it wasn’t great news he was delivering.
Very professional , great manner. gave time for me to ask and for him to answer questions.
I didn’t expect to be as uncomfortable as I was however I was just one of these bodies that took a little longer to adapt. Dr Shilton was very attentive with a lovely bedside manner. I am so so very grateful to have him fix my long term pain that I have had for more than 15 years that no other specialist could fix. Thank you so so much.
Dr Hamish Shilton recently performed my surgery at the Cabrini Hospital. The surgery was successful and all the following appointments and discussions were extremely professional and informative.
I felt very well informed prior to procedure. This included what to expect with the procedure itself and then post operative instructions. Hamish was very kind in his approach and his assistant Chyna also very helpful and kind in all interactions
