HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. Waited 40 minutes to see Dr. Silverberg. The staff was very rude, but the waiting room was full so I thought they must know what they are doing. Wrong! Saw Dr. Silverberg, he was not friendly, very flat and I need to have knee surgery. He said it was a simple operation and he does this all the time. I took his confidence and the fact the waiting room was full to think he must be very good. Also, my family doc told me I would likely need knee surgery, so I figured this was my only option. My family doc told me it was an easy operation and anyone could do it. After surgery, I came back to Central Orthopedic Group for physical therapy. The physical therapists were very nice. I missed one session. After missing one session, I saw Dr. Silverberg and he was upset that I missed my one session. He wouldn't let it go that I missed my PT session. After another few follow-up visits, he informed me that I needed surgery on my knee again! He was so cold and rude and insinuated it was my fault! Horrible bedside manner. I couldn't believe it. I went to 2 other surgeons and no one else wants to touch it, so I have to go back. They have so much business, they don't seem to care much at all.
