"Dr Sylvester has taken care of me, my husband and our daughter over many years. We could not ask for a more informed and caring doctor !!! Always willing to listen to our fears... We felt Dr Sylvester did more in depth testing than any other Dr has done before."

U.S. News & World Report (via Vitals)

"Every time I need a referral, every time I need a report, everything falls through. Referrals have taken up to 11 months just tp be submitted. They not only complicate everything they are causing me to lose pay."

LocalityBiz (Clinic review)

"In the last 10 years we've yet to see an actual M.D... They seem to only have FNP's that think they 'know you' and think they know better than any doctor."
