Patient Reviews

“My chronic conditions have been been life-long, so I have seen many doctors over the years and I can honestly say Dr. Russell Silverstein has been the best listener and caring doctor of them all! He covers all my kidney and related issues clearly, updates me on new medicines, and offers very useful advice. Without a doubt, he respects his patients and has included me on points of decision-making. Prescriptions, tests ordered and information provided are up to date and timely. He gives encouragement! I seem to feel better after appointments whether at DNA north office or via telemed. I very highly recommend Dr. Silverstein. I feel fortunate to be one of his patients and am grateful for him, his stellar staff, and DNA!”

“Dr Silverstein and his staff are the nicest and most attentive clinicians . They treat you like family and are always on top of the game when it comes to major and minor medical issues.. Bella and Crystal his assistants , Kathy and Karen , his front office staff are all wonderful and very efficient. Thank you Dr Silverstein for hiring the best employees and for taking such good care of your patients.”

“Dr. Silverstein has been my Nephrologist for over 10 years. He is very thorough with explaining any issues and reviewing my lab results with me. He always goes above and beyond to help and a real joy to visit with. And Bella is great as well. :-)”

Dr. Silverstein is always the same day in, day out! A consummate professional always! He is the same person that I met years ago; professional and knowledgeable, personable, pleasant and always concerned about YOU the whole patient. He puts patients at ease with a legitimate and caring simile; which allows you to be relaxed and unafraid or ashamed to talk to him truly about your problems. He is an active listener and never belittles you about your complaints. He is thorough and complete with your care. Of all of the doctors and specialists that I have seen over the years, Dr. Silverstein is tops!

I have been a patient of Dr. Silverstein for many years and his examinations are always thorough, and he listens carefully to my questions and concerns. He is personable, and it’s obvious that he cares very much about his patients. He asks me frequently about my experiences with his people, and he never hesitates to direct his staff to serve in the best interest of his patients. In fact, the DNA staff that I have the most contact with, Bella, his right-hand, Fong, Kathy at the front desk and Kesha in the lab, are the very best. The office is well organized, and the patients are treated like kings…it really shows!

Prompt! Friendly and incredibly knowledgeable! But most of all, he actually cares about my health!! This is a rare trait in today‚Äôs medical world. I truly trust this relationship.

Dr. Silverstein is always very throurough, compassionate, and kind. He taked time to make sure we understand our status and anwers all questions. We love Dr. Silverstein and highly recommend.

Dr. Silverstein gives personal attention to details of my health. He answers any and all concerns and questions. It is a privilege and pleasure to have him as my doctor and to have Bella as my nurse. Thank for the years of excellent service you provide to your patients.
