Professor John Silberbauer

Professor John Silberbauer is a consultant cardiologist and cardiac electrophysiologist at the Sussex Cardiac Centre within University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust. He specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias), with particular expertise in catheter ablation procedures for both atrial and ventricular arrhythmias. His clinical practice focuses on delivering advanced, evidence-based care for patients with complex cardiac rhythm conditions.

A significant area of Professor John Silberbauer's expertise is the treatment of ventricular tachycardia (VT), a potentially life-threatening heart rhythm disorder. Following advanced fellowship training in Milan, he developed specialist skills in complex VT ablation, including epicardial techniques. He has also contributed to the development and refinement of innovative procedural approaches designed to improve the safety and effectiveness of catheter ablation for challenging cases.

Alongside his clinical work, Professor John Silberbauer is actively involved in research and medical education. He has authored numerous peer-reviewed publications covering topics such as ventricular arrhythmias, substrate mapping, catheter ablation, and emerging electrophysiology techniques. He is a regular speaker at national and international cardiology conferences, where he shares insights into the latest developments in cardiac electrophysiology.

Professor John Silberbauer is widely recognized for combining specialist patient care with innovation, research, and physician training. His work focuses on advancing the treatment of complex heart rhythm disorders while helping to improve procedural techniques and patient outcomes. Through his clinical expertise, academic contributions, and commitment to education, he continues to play an important role in the evolving field of cardiac electrophysiology.
