    Dr. Silver was very genuine and knowledgeable. I feel privileged to have him on my care team. He had reviewed my case and took extra care and time going through potential causes and treatment options- involving me in every step of the way. He followed up with me on results very promptly. His staff was professional. Great experience.

    Dr. Silver listened to our concerns and answered all the questions we had. He also went above and beyond to provide us additional information that would be helpful for us. We did not feel rushed at all and felt very comfortable being in the room as well as felt that Dr. Silver actually cared.

    He is an amazing doctor and human. He has always given me accurate advice but also has recognized some of the difficulties Ive gone through and made room for allowing me to make decisions based on my experiences. I suffer from debilitating hyperemisis and have always been under treated. Dr. Silver never questioned what I needed and made access to things I needed to stay healthy easy with no questions. I will never be able to thank him enough. My pregnancy has still been almost unbearable but to not have had to fight for care for myself and my unborn child the entire way has made such a huge difference that I will forever be grateful for.

    He is one of the best best doctors Ive had and Ive dealt with many over the years at cedar Sinai, Mayo, UCSF, Stanford and several other high profile institutions. His research makes him an expert in his domain and he has great manners and always makes me feel heard and well taken care of. A huge asset for university of Utah in my opinion.

    Doctor Robert Silver Is the most professional, experienced, and caring provider I had in my life. I'm grateful for the time he took to make me comfortable telling him all the information he needed. He answered my question without rushing and treated me like an individual with needs. I'm transferring care from another hospital which was the opposite. I recommend 100% if you have a high-risk pregnancy to transfer your care to Doctor Silver, which will change your life and give you peace.

    I love Dr. Silver so much. He is the (almost) perfect balance of natural and medicine and he answers the questions and doesn't leave until I'm done asking questions. Love it, he's awesome.
