Dr. Silva was very good about explaining everything in a way that I could understand. He was very positive and very helpful.

I like the fact that my care is a team effort and Dr. Silva incorporates the hospitals specialist doctors in my care also.

Dr Silva great at what he does, but definitely not a conversationalist. I do not ask any questions or talk much either to him.

I will be finding another oncologist at a different clinic. I cannot imagine a worse kind of doctor to not listen to you, not familiarize himself with your case, ignore important details, not engage and not explain things clearly than an oncologist.
