MIchael P. Silverstein's Online Review Report Card

When I made an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon I expected him to make a brief appearance but that did not happen. Not pleased.

Dr. Silverstein performed a 4 level cervical surgery on me 6 weeks ago. I could not have asked for a more proficient surgeon. He is a caring and compassionate individual that explains things in terms you understand. I have no regrets from this surgery. He is a greatly needed and appreciated addition to Citrus county.

Dr. Silverstein did my back surgery late 2019. He was very thorough with my care. He took my other health issues seriously and planned ahead for taking care of them. Dr. Silverstein was relentless in getting to the bottom of "all" of the issues I was having. I never felt like he was "cut hungry" and he never "pushed" me into surgery. He went above and beyond, giving me the best care ever and making sure to provide all the information and care that I needed. His bedside mannerism was wonderful. Dr. Silverstein was attentive, listened to my concerns, answered my questions and was always available to answer any of my questions, and still is. Most times he was the one that responded to my questions, not another staff member. Dr. Silverstein is a very qualified surgeon with extreme talent. The scar on my back is very straight and very thin. If scars can be beautiful, that's what mine is. I highly recommend Dr. Silverstein and guarantee you will be more than satisfied with your choice.

Dr. Silverstein is an amazing doctor. He has left Jewett as I was his last surgery. Does anyone know where he is now?

Dr. Mike is amazing. He was patient, explained everything clearly, and was so real, that we felt like we were talking to a friend (a very talented friend!) We felt we could ask him anything and he took the time so we clearly understood. His staff was wonderful, on time and his aftercare was thorough. I don't like nausea and the "being out-of-it" feeling from heavy surgery meds, so he managed the pain of the extensive back surgery really well, with alternating medications, so I could focus on healing. When it's easy to feel vulnerable and unsure, his confidence was apparent and well earned. P.S. I did a lot of research before choosing Dr. Michael Silverstein and saw some reviews that I quickly figured out were Workmans' Comp cases where someone is upset because he can't and won't unethically give them a fake diagnosis so they can scam the system for free money. I thought it was BS when I read it, and after having worked with him, it really upsets me that they would be malicious.

I would recommend Dr Silverstein to other clients. He was very prompt in my evaluation. Very personable man and listened to what I had to say. He recommended physical therapy and it helped so much. Luckily my issue was not devastating as others. I would have stayed with him if I did not have to change insurance as of Jan. 2021. The only bad thing was I had to travel so far to see him (30 miles) but I am glad I did.

My husband has been in constant pain for the last year and a half . Dr Michael Silverstein is very kind , compassionate , a great listener , knowledgeable and caring , Physician. He put in a spacer and screws in his back . We are so grateful for this Dr. My husband is feeling better and getting back to some activities. I would highly recommend Dr. Silverstein. He is awesome and cares so much .

After doing pain management for the better part of 3 years, it came down to needing spinal surgery. I wanted the best given what was at stake, and my research led me to Dr. Michael Silverstein. From my very first consultation Dr. Silverstein went above and beyond to answer all of my questions and to come up with a care plan and when it came down to it the best surgical option for my injury. The procedure I had done was: L4, L5 posterior lumbar decompression and fusion with bone graft and instrumentation For 3 years I was in so much pain in day to day activities like sitting and walking. Post surgery my injury pain was gone immediately. Dr. Silverstein has given me my life back and I am so grateful. I don't remember feeling this good. Dr. Silverstein is very knowledgeable, personable, easy to talk to and takes the time needed to answer all your questions plus he's the best of the best and I would recommend him 1000%.

Dr. Silverstein is an excellent doctor. This was my first major surgery. He made me feel very comfortable. He explained everything that was going to be done , so that I understood it. He answered all of my husband and my questions. I am so glad that he was there for me. He treated me just like family. Thank you
