UPMC Heart & Vascular Institute

I waited a long time to decide to have back surgery. I selected. Dr. Daniel Wecht & he was was such a great neurosurgeon and I would recommend him to anyone.

Excellent surgeon! He ran a little behind but takes his time with you in the office so it was worth the wait!

Last visit, told me it was time for surgery since nothing else is working. Ordered a MRI and ultrasound to see how much bone had grown around the plate he inserted prior. This was to determine if he had to remove the plate or not. Insisted I got the tests through UPMC so he could examine the...

In 2014, Dr. Wecht perform herniated disc surgery on my back which was a hugh success . However this past year, I reinjured my back, went back to Dr. Wecht for treatment. He was kind, considerate & thoroughly explained the procedure he was going to perform. After the operation , I. Felt like a...

Dr. Silver is the best. At a hospital in a different state I was told that blockage was in an artery too small to stent and to treat it with medications but the symptoms got worse. At UPMC Dr. Silver was determined to find out what was going on with my heart. He personally took me down to have...

Dr Silver has kept me alive! I have EIGHT stints (the last 6 from Dr Silver). I see him twice a year. He is the BEST.

Dr. Silver is the best doctor on the planet! His staff is amazing as well. What a great office!

I saw Dr. Wecht after herniating my L5-S1 disc. He got straight to the point and I was in surgery days later. He is a great surgeon, but I can see where some people are frustrated in their comments. Having chronic lumbar disc issues, there isn’t a whole lot he can do for me aside from surgery or...

great doctor . concerned about his patients, we need more doctors like saul silver.

Dr. Silver is by far the best cardiologist that I know. He cares about his patients. He has helped me tremendously. I would highly recommend him.

This truly is an evil man. AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!

The PA asked all the questions. The Dr came in, didn't even shake my hand, told me to lose weight, stop smoking, and go to physical therapy because I was out if shape, The Dr is short and pudgy! The PA called a week later and was very rude because I didn't start PT yet or quit smoking. Thankfully I...

An excellent bedside manor plus an excellent surgeon.

When you are referred to him after an MRI shows 3 herniated discs and one ventrally ruptured, and your arm is weak, grip strength is weak, and he refers you to PT and his staff tells you he's going on Christmas vacation...that's a red flag. Another flag? No neuro exam. And when you fail PT,...

My experience was awful. 1 1/2 hour wait time. Doctor spent 30 seconds with me. Physicians assistant on a phone call afterward was rude, uncaring and unprofessional. Waste of my time.

Dr. Silver is an excellent physician who genuinely cares about his patients. He taught me a great deal about how to improve my health with simple lifestyle changes such as proper nutrition before immediately resorting to a medicine regimen of daily pills.

Dr. Silver and his staff are the finest. You cannot find a better doctor.
