Dr Peter Wurth 
Tel 9415 2622
Suite 9,  16-18 Malvern Ave  Chatswood 
David Ackling-Jones - Clinician
Dr Wurth has worked  with  people with Mental Health and cognitive impairment diagnoses over the past 3  decades. He is one of few psychiatrists in Australia  to specialise in this area  of dual diagnosis. During the 13 years that I have worked in this field many  of the people I have been treated by 
Dr Wurth. Some of these people have been  helped by Dr Wurth when other practitioners had not been able to help them. My impression has always been that Dr Wurth has a good understanding of people on the spectrum and that he has sought always to provide people with the best opportunity to live their lives with a minimum amount of medication. There may be other psychiatrist who are more gentle in their bedside manner. But I do not personally know of a psychiatrist with a better understanding of dual diagnosis and helping people to find a medication regime that is sound for them. 
  He has directly treated many hundreds of people with these challenges over the years and has an ongoing good reputation.
