Patient Reviews
Apr 19, 2022
Dr. Silverstein was a shining light in a difficult time in my life, having been diagnosed with breast cancer. I did copious research before consulting with surgeons at UCLA, Cedars, and then Dr. Silverstein at Hoag. I know I saw the most amazing surgeons at each of these great facilities, but when I met with Dr. Silverstein, I just knew I needed to be his patient. He helped me in so many ways, from assembling a team consisting of himself as my oncological breast surgeon, my oncoplastic surgeon, Dr. Savalia, my radiation oncologist, my medical oncologist, and my nurse navigator. I had intra-operative radiation with immediate oncoplastic reconstruction, and am so happy with everyone on my team. His staff is fabulous too. Dr. Silverstein is a hero in my life, and I shall never forget the exemplary care, both physically and emotionally, that he gave me.
