Nice talking to her
Very nice and compassionate. And knowledgeable.
Listened well, has great expertise , very helpful, did not push for interventions that were not needed . I had a great experience.
Dr. Silas fixed my hip. She is an asset to your organization. Both physical therapists I’ve been seeing praise her work and knowledge. Dr. Silas is very busy but makes time to sit with me and has answered all my questions and concerns. I’m not happy I was injured, but I am ecstatic that I have a wonderful surgeon. You do whatever it is to keep her at your facility. She is that good.
Dr Silas is truly a genuine doctor who cares about her patients and never rushes you out but also gives you the facts not what you want to hear. She’s a realist.
Competent, caring, friendly
Dr. Silas is always straight to the point and explains things that I ask as well as being compassionate and a great listener
Dr Silas has such a wonderful demeanor and is very kind. She answered my questions with patience. I would recommend her to anyone who might need her services.

Love my doc! She is the best!!!
