Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

She was the OB on call who delivered my baby. I had a retained placenta so she did a D&C, she did an ultrasound in the OR and said she got it all. Well, she didn’t. She left a very large, significant amount of placenta in me which turned necrotic and gave me a bad infection. Due to her negligence, I had to have a hysterectomy 3 weeks later. I would NOT ever go to Dr. Silva.

She was VERY rushed when delivering the exam. There were also things she didn't do that I had done on other (thorough) exams that I had to ask her to do. When I said, "Are you going to check for polyps?" (as I have always had done during my PAP exams since college) she said, "I can, but your PCP should have done that." I said, "My PCP said you should cover that since it's part of a well-woman's exam." She was flippant about it and finished the ENTIRE exam (breast, vagina, etc.) in 10 mins. No.
