Dr. Silverstein is a excellent pediatrician. He has been our preferred Dr for our five children for at least 15 years. I would recommend him 100%. Check to verify Sunday hours a plus?

This doctor is bright, caring and kind. I appreciate his wisdom, along with his conservative approach when treating my children. I would recommend him without hesitation.

Friend of my ex wife Lorna intentionally being rude to me puts me on hold two times for over 5 minutes without reason. I was simply trying to get a physical for my son. Had to switch PHP for my child. Now the office staff is preventing me to talk to the doctor and will not forward my sons medical records to his new PHP. Very unprofessional and absurd.

I recently switched from another practice in the merrick/bellmore area and I am thrilled with Dr. Silverstein (Dr. Jeff). He was great with my daughter and very thorough. Very personable and easy to talk to and ask questions. Took his time with us without ever making me feel like he was rushing through the appt to see another patient. Awesome experience!!

Dr. Silverstein is an amazing doctor!!! He is wonderful with my kids-- even when they are difficult!! He is smart, cautious and on top of everything. His office staff is great too. When I gave birth to my daughter he checked on her every day in the hospital (5 days) even though he didn't need to-- he didn't even charge us or our insurance company for the extra visits!! He's got true integrity. He's great with new moms. He's the best doctor EVER!!!!!
