About Dr Paul Worth
I am a senior neurologist with nearly 20 years' consultant experience in the NHS and private sector. I have a special interest and expertise in Parkinson’s and movement disorders including dystonia, ataxia, and atypical parkinsonian disorders such as progressive supranuclear palsy, multiple systems atrophy and corticobasal degeneration.
I trained in medical sciences at Cambridge University and graduated with first-class honours in 1989. For my clinical medical training, I moved to Oxford University, qualifying as a doctor in 1992. After completing general medical training as a junior doctor, I trained in neurology at a number of London hospitals over a period of seven years, including the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery. During this time, I developed my special interest and expertise in Parkinson’s and related disorders. I did my PhD at University College, London in the genetics of movement disorders.
I finished my specialist training in 2004 and was appointed as a consultant neurologist at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital where I set up and developed a specialist Parkinson’s service. In 2013 I moved to Cambridge and was appointed as a consultant neurologist at Addenbrooke’s Hospital where I have a general neurology practice diagnosing and treating headache, seizures, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis and stroke and functional neurological disorders.

AI Review Summary
This summary was created by AI based on recent reviews
Dr Paul Worth is helpful, professional, clear, reassuring, and knowledgeable during patient interactions. He provides thorough examinations and explains conditions, diagnoses, and treatment plans clearly. Patients feel at ease and well-informed, valuing his attentive and supportive approach. Many consult Dr Worth for Parkinson's Disease, tremor, and migraine, finding confidence in his neurological care.
I was referred by another specialist as there were possible signs of Parkinson’s disease but was reassured the symptoms were no longer present and no further visits necessary.
Very good visit. No problems whatsoever. Everything was explained where I could understand. I was listened to and felt at ease throughout the appointment. Thank you.
The entire visit was conducted in a very professional manner; I learned much more about my health issue. The doctor was very friendly and got straight to the point. I highly recommend.
Dr Worth was understanding and helpful. I was surprised that he considered that my balance was better than I considered it to be. I was relieved that he did not consider nerve conduction tests were necessary and that the perineal neuropathy which I experience does not appear to be caused by any damage to large function nerves.
Thank you for your kind review. I hope you were reassured that although you may feel your balance is not as it used to be or as good as you would like, objectively to clinical testing, I found you to have as good or better balance than many half your age! I am sure that with balance exercises such as yoga or Pilates you might improve your balance still further. All the best for the future
Dr Worth was very thorough in his questions and examination of my Parkinson’s symptoms
Finally we got some answers and some direction to take after seeing Dr Worth . The NHS appointment that was given is still weeks away. We have a plan now to see a physio specialising in FND and things are looking more positive . I would highly recommend going to see DR Worth rather than wait months to see a general neurologist if you have tremor's.
I found Dr Worth to be very personable and empathetic, I felt that our discussion and examination covered all the areas that were of concern to me and I was given the time to explain my symptoms. Dr Worth set out a clear assessment and course of action. He was very clear in his his explanations and took care to check my understanding. Overall a very positive experience. Thank you.
Couldn't fault Pauls' approach to my referral. Facility was easy to access, easy parking and no waiting around. Painless.
