Education and Training

Medical School: Saint Louis University School of Medicine

Doctor of Medicine, with honors

Distinction in Research/Publication

Undergradute: Rockhurst University

B.S. in Chemistry, Summa Cum Laude

Dr. Silver obtained a B.S. in chemistry while graduating at the top of his class at Rockhurst University. Due to his outstanding academic performance he was granted acceptance to medical school after his first year of college and obtained enough credits to graduate after only three years. However, he chose to complete his fourth year of college as he was also a standout on the baseball field, ultimately leading to being selected as the student-athlete of the year for the Great Lakes Valley Conference and being recognized on the ESPN the Magazine’s Academic All American Team.

He went on to attend medical school at Saint Louis University, where he continued to excel. He was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Society in recognition of his outstanding academic performance. He was also selected to serve on the medical schools’ admission committee, participated in several community outreach programs, and utilized nearly every weekend to develop his surgical skills. He graduated with honors and a distinction in research and was the first Saint Louis University student in over 10 years to be selected for a residency in plastic surgery.

Dr Silver then went on to complete a six-year integrated plastic surgery residency at the University of Nevada School of Medicine. His track record of outstanding academic performance continued as he scored in the top 1% on the national surgical exams on four separate occasions. He also completed research in multiple fields including pavement burns, hyperbaric oxygen, tissue expansion, pressure ulcers and cancer, resulting in over twenty scientific publications and presentations. He also took pride in teaching the medical students and was honored with the Arnold P. Gold Foundation Humanism and Excellence in Teaching Award.

Always striving to be his best, Dr. Silver then went on to complete a full year of fellowship training in aesthetic surgery, with an emphasis on facial rejuvenation. In this year alone, Dr. Silver performed over 1500 aesthetic surgical procedures. This level of aesthetic training was available to less than 15 surgeons per year and is a testament to the extra effort that Dr. Silver has continuously shown in his journey to becoming the best surgeon that he can be.

Dr. Silver and his nurse Stacy, and his team are phenomenal. I went in with a list of questions and concerns and he patiently answered every single one. He set my nerves at ease and help me make the right devision for myself. They performed my abdominoplasty 6 months ago. I am beyond happy with my results, which are still not my final results. He still patiently answers all my questions post op. I tell everyone about Dr. Silver and his team and the office. Everyone is so nice and helpful and you truly feel welcome and comfortable. You’re in great hands with this team!
