Martin Silverman, MD

Excellent doctor, incredible caring and personable. He has been my doctor through two pregnancies and was very supportive, provided right level of information and answered questions willingingly. His staff are also the best and the excellent level of care extends through them also. Cant recommend him and his office highly enough.

Really kind and caring doctor, even for older women!

Believe the reviews. Dr Silverman is by far the best and most caring doctor I’ve had. I’m not one to be a strict pregnancy rules follower and I had gestational diabetes that was poorly controlled. I didn’t care for guilt tactics certain other doctors employed – i.e. «Don’t you want to do this or that for your baby?» or «Why don’t you don’t seem motivated to change – sacrificing is what it means to be a mother!» Dr Silverman was supportive and not at all judgmental. He was insistent with certain things I needed to do or not do, but somehow he never came through as condescending or pushy. At certain times he went above and beyond to work with my quirks/​paranoia to make sure the pregnancy goes well. I had a healthy baby delivered via c-​section and a fast recovery. Even if you have to wait a while to get on his calendar, do it. It’s worth it. There’s a reason he’s so busy!

He delivered my baby via c section when my doctor was on vacation. He is incredible! Has the best bedside manner and actually hugged me as the anesthesiologist was doing the spinal because it took a while. What a gentle and kind man! All went well and my recovery was fast!

Best best best doctor ever. I had my two children with him. He carefully treated me during my pregnancies with most utter care. I have a anxious personality and Doctor Silverman knew every time how to best examine and prescribe what is needed which always helped. He took his time and always followed up on all my concerns and questions. Both births he came early in the middle of the night with a smile on his face. He did the deliveries in the best possible way. This doctor is a saint and I pray for him and his health. A true doctor and caring human being. Thank you Doctor Silverman.

Has what you want in a doctor, reliable, kind, patient and calm with wonderful social skills. Being pregnant, this is exactly what i needed. Wonderful in the birthing room. I highly recommend him (coming from someone that has had 4 kids)!

You can’t go wrong with him. I was half way in my pregnancy when I move to the area. He read carefully and took copy of all my records. I wanted virginal delivery and he did good stitches for me. He is always caring, not only as a doctor, but as a person. Sorry doctor, this review is long due and you deserve every star!

This gentleman is a fantastic physician all the way around. I speak from my experience as a nurse, as well as one of his patients. I just had my 4^th (and last) child under his care, and I only wish I’d known of him when I first started on this motherhood journey…
Last year, I had an early miscarriage at 9 weeks. I abruptly left my last OB’s care who I’d been going to for nearly 20yrs when I was right in the middle of miscarrying and came to see Dr. Silverman on a recommendation from a friend and after reading the other positive reviews here on Unilocal!He confirmed my miscarriage via ultrasound that same day and offered to do a D/​C right away, even offering to do it on his day off. I had the procedure done the next day. I was so glad to just be done with it and move on, since my body was showing no signs of the miscarriage at all.
Although it was really like just signing on the dotted line for me to have the D/​C, I was feeling sad and uneasy as I laid waiting for my D/​C, as anyone would be. He came in and the last thing I remember before being put under for the procedure was Dr. Silverman taking my hand in his and smiling at me. It was just what I needed. His bedside manner is phenomenal.
My prenatal care with this last child was excellent. He was supportive, thorough, and reassuring when I needed it. He remained positive and calm and I couldn’t ask for better bedside manner. I had a smooth pregnancy. Clinically, he doesn’t jump on board right away with the latest study results and change how he practices; he waits until the ‘latest thing’ PROVES to be the greatest practice before he embraces those kinds of changes in his practice. This is exactly what you want in a physician.
Fantastic experience. Will stick with him until he retires! His staff is equally great.

I am new to the area and found Dr. Silverman through google and looked through his reviews on Unilocal.we went for my first doc visit as i am expecting. he is very patient and caring. He let me asks all my questions as its my first time preganancy. I am very glad that if ound him.

One of the two BEST doctors I have ever met. Very knowledgable, experienced, patient, passionate, caring! He explained to me in details, even with the help of the models. He answered each of my seemed-​stupid questions patiently with smile! He is the doctor who is willing to help you deliver your baby during night and weekend even he is not on call. He LOVES his job and he has the best bedside manners!
UPDATE 06/​03/​2016
I have my second baby delivered on Nov 2 2015. Dr Silverman is THE BEST doctor I have ever met. Even both my ultrasound and blood work show some warning signs, he was so experienced that he expressed both his understanding of my worries and his assurance to me. He assured me that there was no serious problem and it probably was just false alarm. He told me that he would pay close attention to it and even under worst case scenario, he was very confident to give me best care. I delivered my second baby at 3am. The hospital called him at around 2:55am. He woke up from deep sleep at home. Then, TEN minutes later, he was in my delivery room! Can’t express enough thankfulness to him.

This is absolutely THE BEST doctor!! I I know him for almost 10 years and I wouldn’t go anywhere else, I just love him! He delivered my both kids and I am so happy it was him! He is the most caring, intelligent and professional. It’s hard to go to see over doctors after this one, he sets standards very high, for someone over they are simply unreachable. ;) Thank you, dear doctor!!! Our whole family adores you!!! Thank you for my healthy and beautiful kids! :)

I absolutely LOVE him! I initially found him through Unilocal and so happy I did. He helped bring my daughter into this world. He is the most kind and patient Dr ever! Every nurse at Good Sam LOVESSSSSSSSS him. I was also involved in a motor accident in front of his office (2 weeks to my due date — CRAZY). First to arrive to the scene were some fire fighters, even they RAVED about him! He’s a community favorite!

Dr. Silverman is the best! Would never go to anyone else. Nicest guy, extremely caring and listens to all your concers. You know your in good hands.

Never had such a patient, caring and informative doctor. Dr. Silverman Takes his time to truly listen to you. He does not act condescending or above you when expressing concerns and needing reassurance. He treats his patients with the respect which i love because a lot of doctors tend to shut you up quickly with their knowledge without even letting you finish, i assure you will not get this with Dr. Silverman. Thank you Dr. Silverman for being the caring and patient doctor you are especially after so many years in the industry.

After already giving birth to 4 children, ages ranging from 5 — 17 yrs of age… I find myself with «surprise!», #5 is on the way!!! Although, I was content with my last OB here in the Bay Area (the other children were all born in Canada), I decided that I wanted the BEST for my FINAL pregnancy, and delivery.
After reading all the fabulous reviews for Dr. Silverman, and then also running into a friends OB doctor, that also RAVED about Dr. Silverman… I knew he was the perfect baby Doc for me! ;)
I’ve seen him twice now, and his office runs like a well-​oiled machine. I hardly wait at all for my appointments… and they do ultrasounds right there in the office! Very, very, very well organized office, and all the staff is very FRIENDLY.
Dr. Silverman is kind, genuine, caring… I leave each appointment feeling so happy that I found him!

I can’t say enough about Dr. Silverman I am older women been going to this doctor since my 30’s. Never had children with him, actually selected him after my doctor retired to help me with a female problem I was having. No other doctor could help or would help me but he did and he solved my issue. He made my life normal again he was so kind and thought full and a gentleman. My company has changed medical insurance many times and the one I will pick has to have Dr. Silverman on it or I won’t use that insurance just can’t give him up no way can change any other doctor but not him. Your the best Doctor Silverman!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Martin Silverman. He is a gracious gentleman, first and foremost. I have been with him now 14 years and he delivered both my sons. I had complications in both situations and he handled them calmly, expertly and compassionately. I wish every professional was schooled by him because he epitimozes what professionalism is all about.
i wholeheartedly endorse Dr. Silverman — I put the lives of my sons in his hands and never doubted his integrity and honor of my trust.

I moved to the South Bay area in 2011 and got pregnant a few months after the move. I had delivered my first son in Miami and loved my doctor there. I was sure I wasn’t going to find a Dr that would be even close as good as the one I had before, boy was I wrong.
Dr. Silverman is the nicest, most caring Doctor I’ve ever had, in any specialty. I had a hard time getting pregnant again and had a few losses in the middle, Dr. Silverman since the first day was so sympathetic and always made me feel that everything was going to be okay this time.
He took all the time needed on every consult, I never felt rushed.
For the delivery, I had chosen December 26 as my delivery date (c-​section) and he had agreed to it with me three months before the date. In December he realized he had planned his vacation time during that week, but he said it didn’t matter because he had already committed to doing the c-​section that day so he postponed his vacation until he was done with my delivery, I’m sure not many doctors would do this for their patients.
He came the day of the delivery in his usual happy mood and walked me through the process, he even held my hand through the anesthesia something that was very surprising to me and so reassuring.
The delivery went great, and I couldn’t be happier with my incision.
I would recommend Dr. Silverman to anyone looking for the best possible prenatal care.
Also all the nurses at the hospital love Dr. Silverman, everyone told me that I had the best doctor there is :)

I doubt all those compliment. All 5 stars?
I made an appointment with Dr. Martin one month ahead cuz I did as what you did, seeing all those fancy rating and compliment. He’s not that close to me and I have to drive 30 minutes to get there from my working place. I thought my appointment was 3:45. Actually, I was supposed to get there earlier but I went a wrong highway intersection. So, I had to turn back and blabla. Then I got there 3:50. Normally, from all my doctor experience, the front desk will call me nicely if I got there later to check whether I will make it. But I didn’t get it from them.
Well, yeah, I was a little late. I tried to explain and expressed my apology. The front desk woman made me feel I’m like idiot standing there to beg for seeing the doctor. But she is so cold to repeat she could only reschedule for another month waiting. So, bye-​bye, Dr. Martin. I wouldn’t know how fancy you’re.
I would like to let YOU guys know the difference cuz I went there with so much expectation because of all those compliment.
And, I am a patient. When I show you respect, cannot you show me some humanity? That’s what we call doctor, right?

I was searching for a new OB since my previous OB moved to Arizona. I heard a lot of good things about Los Olivos Medical Group and researched all the doctors. I selected Dr. Martin Silverman and am so grateful for him. When I made my first visit, I liked how we sat in his office so I could get comfortable with him first before moving into the examination room. I practically interviewed him and he was so nice. He always made me feel comfortable during each visit and he’s very personable. At each visit he made me feel good about my progress during my pregnancy. At Los Olivos you may not always have your OB deliver you — it depends on who’s on call that week. Dr. Silverman knew how much it meant for me to have him be the one to deliver my first child so we decided I would get induced on a day he would visit the hospital (during his off week too).
My entire Good Sam experience was awful, but what made it all worth it, was that, I was in the best care with Dr. Silverman. (Even the nurses at Good Sam loved working with him and they reassured me that I was in good hands.) He talked me through everything he was doing. In the end, he delivered a healthy baby. My husband was so grateful that Dr. Silverman was there for us. I couldn’t ask for a better doctor! When you meet him, you will know why everyone loves Dr. Silverman.
