Patient Reviews
Mar 21, 2024
Dr De Silva does what is needed for the patient. I have seen many Doctors over my 70 years, and Doctor De Silva is in the top 2. My wife came to see him in 2020. She was on max dose medication for Intractable Epilepsy, and PTSD. She was a Zombie. He treated her and eliminated all the psychiatric meds that weren't needed. She is back to the woman I married. Dr. De Silva is the real deal.
