Patient Reviews
Aug 14, 2018
After trying to avoid back surgery for almost 10 years, I finally had to get it done. As an attorney, I did a lot of research, including asking some medical malpractice attorneys that I trust if they have heard of Dr. Silverthorn. They all said that he was an amazing surgeon and they had not heard anything negative. After seeing Dr. Silverthorn and having him complete a L5-S1 discectomy, I would recommend him without reservation. Now I'm back playing sports and feeling great. He's a nice guy too
