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.

My visit was thorough, respectful, and unrushed. The doctor and the P.A. presented me with information on my condition and offered treatment options. I was given prescriptions for follow up tests, and I felt confident and optimistic when I left.

Dr. Silva is definitely one of the nicest doctors we have ever met. From the moment we walked in he greeted my Mom and I with a wonderful smile and positive energy. He took the time to get to know us, he asked questions and was genuinely interested in Mom and what she had to say. He took his time to go thru all her test results and was so thorough in his explanation that he actually has a giant note pad in the back of the door where he writes everything he discusses with you and you actually have something you can take home if you are like me and like do your own research. He sat down with us like 45 minutes and actually treated us like humans, like if we were his own family. He is amazing and we continue to see him to have him supervise Mom's treatment plan from beginning to end.

He has a bright energy and personality. Wasnt used to it. I've had many bad experiences with doctors over the course of my life. I've been suffering n not getting help since I was a kid. But recently my health issues just really declined. I finally really needed to see doctors. I need surgery n I also felt so weak I knew I would need help. I was worried I would give through the same stuff I usually do and people dont believe I'm so sick. He listened I told him how I've been dealing doe years and what's worked to keep me here. He knew what I needed and I felt so comfortable and I just knew to trust him. He literally treated me as a daughter. Hes respectful and loves his job. Atleast that's what I feel. I feel a passion to help. I hope he will be my hemo for years to come. I finally have been getting more information on my health issues. And now I wont be just getting By. I'm on my way to improvement. Gaining control of my life. Maybe I wont be in and out the hospital anymore.

Dr Silva is amazing. Listened to everything I said. Was extremely professional kind and polite and a great doctor. I have 27 years working for physicians and he is by far the best I have ever seen. A great diagnostician. Ordered the tests I needed. I followed up in two weeks. Had all results. Even wrote them on an easel so I would understand. Ordered some more necessary tests and I will see him again in three weeks. Unbelievably great physician. Best I have ever had

After vetting the top three oncologists in Miami-Dade, we chose to treat with Dr. Silva and we made the right choice. I have found him to be a highly trained, experienced clinician with a much needed gentle bedside manner. His diagnosis and treatment protocol are spot on. He is a lifesaver and I am grateful we found him.

I’ve known this doctor since 1999 undergoing chemo and radiation, thank God I’m cancer free to this day. Being a Registered nurse I found this doctor friendly, caring, empathetic and compassionate, which any sick individual would need for their healing. I’m so grateful that this doctor is still practicing as I now need his education and wisdom to heal my osteoporosis. What a great clinician.

My favorite doctor!! I was dignosed with breast cancer and since then I’ve been under the care of Dr. Silva. He is very professional and very knowledgeable. He taught me how to eat well and take good care of myself. I feel very happy that I was recommended to him by many friends. He takes the time necessary to answer all my questions and guide me through the right path. He’s always very happy, positive, and very open minded. I couldn’t change him, he’s the best!!!

I met Dr Silva one month ago for the first time and was very impressed. I would trust him completely and would recommend him to anyone that wants the best! He is honest, caring and explains anything you want to know. The one thing I learned about him is that he is a very human person. His professionalism, efficiency, and approach to health care should be a model for health care delivery. Thank you Dr Silva for everything you are doing for Francisco. You are always trying to do your best with him

Landy is a phenomenal doctor and person. Why? He's smart, experienced, and has an instinct that is spot on. He treated my mom many years ago when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Mom didn't take the news too well, and for the past 14+ years, he's always been accessible, patient, understanding, and professional (and my mom cancer-free!). Landy is a wonderful family man, he gives tirelessly to others on his "free" time, and is a true friend. I wholeheartedly recommend him!

He not just gives to his patients a treatment in traditional medicine, but he also is an advocated of health through food and exercise for body and mind. He also motivates the patient to go with their own questions that he is willing and happy to answer. He's a great human being and a great doctor at the same time. I completely trust in him.
