Dr. Silverberg is the BEST. He has the best personality, and cares so much about his patients. But mainly, he is very very intelligent in his field and explains your health issues in a language you can understand. I have seen him since 1994 and have always had an EXCELLENT visit with him. Hope he never retires.

I always have a grate experience with Dr. Silverberg. There is never a question on what I need to do or what my labs mean. I fear the future when he retires. They do not make doctors like this anymore. He is genuine, kind & understanding to the patients needs. Thank you Doc!!

I have used Dr Silverberg for years to help me with my diabetes. He goes over my labs and explained them in detail. He then answers any questions I have. I never feel rushed. We then discuss my treatment plan and make any decisions we feel would help.

A doctor’s doctor
Dr. Silverberg is a knowledgeable, articulate, and, most importantly, caring doctor who has provided my care for almost 20 years. In the days if computers, he still takes the time to look at you and listen to your concerns before beginning his exam. His treatment options are always at the forefront of his specialty, and his follow through with his patients is outstanding. If I could give 10 stars, I would.
