I cant imagine anyone ever giving this doctor and his Nurse practioner anything less than 5 stars. The only issue I ever have issue getting an appointment with Dr Silvestry. He is so popular, his appointments book up more than a year in advance. But his assistant can see you any time and if she needs to refer you to the doctor, she get you in to see the doctor. I would ignore those negative reviews. I have never had a doctor spend so much time with me, remember everything about my history, and be so caring. I would give him 6 stars!

Dr Silvestry spends a good amount of time explaining what is going on with each patient. He is very thorough. He suggests issues that are even outside of his expertise and will make appropriate referrals to get to the bottom of issues. He is good at keeping appointment times. The only issue is how long it takes to get an appointment because he is in such high demand. I almost hate writing a good review because it might add to my wait time for the next appointment. But he seems worth the wait!

I cannot put into words the admiration and respect that I have for Dr. Silvestry. He has kept me alive for many years. I am not the best paitent in the world, however, Dr Silvestry's ability to accurately diagnois issues and refer me to the right Surgeon, has kept me out of trouble. Recently, I was in Europe and had a heart issue. Without hesitation, Dr Silvestry called the cardiolgy Doctor in Europe, got me home safe, and once again, got me back to normal. Doc is never in a hurry with paitents spends time explaining and always follows up. Dr Silvestry you ARE the Best of the Best

It is difficult to get an appointment with him, but if you can its worth the wait. He is an expert, smart, accurate, and caring doctor who will make you feel comfortable. You will hear back regarding tests from his nurse practitioner or nurse promptly. Can't say enough good things about Dr. S.
