Dr. Silverman is very nice and I'm sure competent, but it appeared he had not reviewed my chart at all before seeing me. He did look while I was in with him, but I felt that cut into our time a bit. I had been very nervous after a serious event and felt he wasn't able to fully explain why he thought my risk going forward was low.
Very knowledgeable and eager to answer all of our questions.
Dr Silverman was a delight to see and instilled the HIGHEST possible measure of confidence I was in excellent hands.
Friendly doctor.
Dr. Silverman was extremely diligent about reviewing my old medical records and old MRIs in my brain, which was very impressive.
He was aware of my situation and he was able to help me with my situation
Well prepared and at end provided another step going forward
Yeah, I found the provider very professional, very helpful and the facilities there in Waltham were fantastic, one-stop shopping.
My overall experience with the provider and everyone in the area was excellent. [redacted]
