Alan Silberberg, MD

I have been incredibly happy with Dr. Silberberg. I continue to see him despite him being out-​of-​network on my insurance (he is worth it!).
Dr. Silberberg’s staff is incredibly professional — from his extraordinarily professional and attentive staff (their response time on phoned-​in questions, scheduling, and prescription refills, etc. cannot be beat!), his clinical staff is well-​trained, and Dr. Silberberg himself… he is definitely one of my favorite doctors of all time.
His bedside manner is marvelous — he is always smiling and happy and his demeanor puts me at ease. You would think that going to a physician to talk about pain would be a morbid conversation, but somehow I always feel more upbeat and positive despite the fact that I am there for chronic pain.
I have had several procedures performed by Dr. Silberberg, including in-​office injections — and have found he has a «feather light» touch with the needle. Regarding all proposed treatments (whether they be surgeries, injections, etc.), he is always honest about prospective results — and has been very forthcoming with what my realistic expectations should be — and has always allowed me to make my own decisions on whether I wish to proceed with them.
Dr. Silberberg is an exceptional physician (he is educated in both Pain Management as well as an Anesthesiologist), and I recommend him without hesitation.

After going to my pcp for pain, he looked at my mri and immediately said I would need surgery for a c5 c6 herniated disc. I was referred to Greater Austin Pain due to the fact that I was in so much pain I couldn’t move. I have been mentally preparing myself for surgery. When I was seen by Dr. Alan Silberberg, he informed me that it could heal on it’s own. I certianly could get surgery, but fusing my neck is forever, so let’s try other options first. He was very thorough, very friendly, and answered all of my questions. He left it totally up to me, and advised me to still see a neurosurgeon I have an apt for, but to really think about what I want. Get my pain to a manageable level and see if it will heal, or get surgery right away. I never felt any pressure to do anything. Would highly recommend.

Dr Silberberg is truly as good as it gets. I have never been to a doctor who gives you a hug!!! And listens to all my questions, takes the time to explain things when I don’t understand, and provides me with the best options. Unlike other places I don’t get pushed out — the «get a prescription and get lost» treatment.
His staff is always so friendly and my calls get answered promptly. I don’t have to hold for thirty min just to get an appointment. This is a doc that cares– about his patients, about his staff who seem happy, and about doing the right thing.
You can’t go wrong with Dr Silberberg.

Dr. Silberberg is in his own practice now, so I wanted to write a new review. He is still absolutely one of my favorite doctors. He always greets me with a hug and a huge smile. I don’t know that I’ve ever seen him in a bad mood! He’s easy to talk to, interested, concerned, supportive and extremely professional. In addition, and I can’t say this enough, he listens! He’s one of those rare physicians that talk to you and not at you. He trusts that you know your body and what is best for you. It can be so difficult to find a physician like this nowadays, and I feel really lucky to have him in my corner. He manages my pain effectively without just loading me up on pills. I have also had injections done by him, and this is always painless and efficient. And if he feels I need a second opinion on something or a referral to another doctor, he’s happy to assist me. Likewise, when another doctor of mine requested that he do a specific procedure and send a copy of the results, it was handled smoothly without delay. And he has never made me feel pressured into a procedure or a treatment. He’s open to any concerns you have about the practice as well. I can tell him if I’ve had a problem with anything and he doesn’t get defensive – he takes care of it. However, there are rarely any problems, and the few I have experienced have been minor and quickly remedied. There are a lot of not so reputable pain management docs out there, which is unfortunate. Dr. Silberberg is the jewel amongst them!

As a patient of Dr. Silberberg for several years, I strongly recommend him to anyone looking for a medical professional with experience, compassion and professionalism. His genuine concern for the well being of his patients is apparent in every aspect of the way he conducts his practice. I feel completely comfortable with him and know that he is always keeping my safety and health care as his number one priority. He is a true blessing for anyone who needs a great doctor!

I had to do without Dr Silberberg for nearly a year because of my insurance. As of today I’m back with him again and so thankful. If you need help with pain management he is your man for the job. I can’t say enough for the care and concern he has shown me through my process. Super guy and great doctor!

I have been seeing Dr. Silberberg for a couple of years now, and he is one of the best doctors I have ever had. He always listens to me first to see how I am and what has changed. Then once he gets all of the necessary data, he sits down with me and we make a treatment plan. He is an excellent doctor and he’s a lovely person to boot! You can’t lose with Dr. Silberberg.
