About Dr. Sharon Silberstein

Dr. Sharon Silberstein is a medical doctor, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and Tongue Tie Specialist. She completed her initial medical training in Aachen, Germany. She spent some time specialising in Obstetrics and Gynaecology before finding her special area of interest, which is Breastfeeding Medicine. Dr. Silberstein has been working with breastfeeding mothers for over 8 years and has been performing Tongue Tie Divisions in babies up to 1 year for the last 5 years.

Dr. Silberstein is known for her caring and gentle manner and will use her holistic approach to treat both mothers and babies, understanding that each of her patients are individuals and have individual wants and needs. Breastfeeding Medicine is not well known in England and not practiced by many doctors, which leads to many patients being sent back and forth between midwifes, health visitors and lactation consultants. Dr. Silberstein is able to combine her medical knowledge with her lactation expertise and help many mothers and babies find a solution to a difficult lactation journey.

Dr Silberstein is the clinic owner of the Dr Silberstein Clinic in Hampstead Garden Suburb. She worked hard to make this dream come true and it is the first and only dedicated clinic to Infant Feeding and Tongue Tie. She has a team of experienced Lactation Consultants working with her and the clinic offers parenting courses, antenatal classes, paediatric first aid courses and much more.

Dr. Silberstein is always working to better herself professionally, adding to her knowledge and skillset all the time. She also owns a masters equivalent degree (Level 7) in Aesthetic Medicine since June 2020 and provides injectable treatments using Botulinum Toxin and Dermal Fillers (Anti-wrinkle treatments, cheek and lip augmentations, fillers for skin folds such as nasolabial folds, Hyperhidrosis treatment for the armpit to prevent excessive sweating and treatment for Bruxism and TMJ disorder). Her approach to aesthetics is to achieve a natural result to enhance her patients beauty. As a doctor she is able to treat patients in a clinical, safe environment and is able to deal with complications should they occur.

Dr Silberstein provided her advice efficiently and effectively, quickly targeting the root of my breastfeeding issues and offering positive and constructive advice on treatment options with a multi prong approach. She suggested both practical quick changes I could make as well as longer term medication-based treatment. I felt listened to and hopeful after our consultation and that I was in very good hands. After following Dr Silberstein’s advice I had an immediate improvement in my breastmilk supply, with it tripling in volume basically overnight. I am very grateful for her guidance and support and would highly recommend to anyone with breastfeeding issues.

Sharon is an exceptional breastfeeding consultant and tongue tie practitioner. She is professional, compassionate and incredibly knowledgeable in her field. Her expertise is evident, but what really stands out is the kindness and reassurance she brings to every appointment. She takes the time to explain everything thoroughly and ensures you feel supported and confident. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any new parent — I truly wouldn’t want anyone else supporting me and my baby after birth.

I started my treatment with Dr. Silberstein over a year ago and I have to give her a huge thanks as with her help I have been able to keep breastfeeding for far longer than what I thought was possible given my circustances. Dr. Silberstein made me comfortable and explained everything that I needed to know, and when I had questions about the treatment, she was always open to comunicate and clarify over whatsapp, any doubts or concerns that I had. Everytime I felt necessary to do a follow-up, Dr. Silberstein was happy to accomodate either via a phone call or face to face.

Dr Silberstein was incredibly informative, friendly and caring for assessing and performing the tongue tie procedure on our son. The experience far exceeded my expectations. We felt very supported and at ease having our bub in her hands.

We saw Dr Silberstein in regards to our daughter’s tongue tie in 2022, and had no hesitation in returning to see her for our next daughter in 2025. She is very calm, confident and knowledgeable. We felt like we were in safe hands from start to finish. Dr Silberstein was very professional and thorough in her diagnosis and recommended course of treatment. The tongue tie divisions were quick and both babies fed well immediately afterwards. We would highly recommend Dr Silberstein for any babies with tongue tie issues!

I visited Dr Silberstein to discuss my milk supply dipping following 2 months of successful BF and weight gain. We are on a path of getting it back and she has been so helpful and kind, reassuring me what is best for me and baby. I’m glad I found her

Dr Sharon performed a TT division for my baby and provided a lactation consultation plus ongoing support in her breastfeeding group. With her support, I was able to get my son from the 2nd centile up to the 50th with exclusive breastfeeding, and his colic symptoms improved too. I couldn’t be more grateful to her for helping get us back on track - he’s 9 months now and still happily breastfeeding alongside solids.

Took my little boy to Dr Silberstein when he was 16 weeks old as we were struggling with breastfeeding & he was losing weight. She assessed & treated him in the one appointment and it completely changed our feeding journey! Breastfeeding was instantly easier & he's now put all the list weight back on, plus more! An angel disguised as a doctor, I'd recommend to anyone struggling!

Dr Sharon is amazing doctor. She has calmly and supportively helped us on our BF journey. Her advice and tips have been sensible and she has honestly advised us that although our son has a slight lip tie it was not necessary to perform a separation. We appreciated the honesty and won't forget or hesitate to recommend her for this.
