Silver Spine & Neurological Center was established by Dr. M. Viktor Silver after 20 years in practice with interventional pain management, minimally invasive and outpatient spine surgeries.
Dr. Silver completed fellowship training in the management of Complex Spinal diseases, including minimally invasive spine surgery, disc replacement and spinal injections.
With many years of experience in challenging cases, areas of special interest to Dr. Silver are the management of spinal conditions like sciatica, spinal stenosis, neck and back pain using the latest techniques in spinal injections, minimally invasive spinal surgery, sacroiliac joint fusions, spine cord stimulation and same-day surgery.
The primary objective is to understand the patient’s symptoms and signs in the context of a comprehensive diagnosis, to then lay the groundwork for treatment. The patient needs to know all the options for treatment, both surgically and non-surgically, including physical therapy,spinal injections and outpatient spine surgery.

Dr. Desaloms has been performing Deep Brain Stimulation for 20 years. It is being used in novel ways to treat a whole host of brain dysfunctions, dramatically increasing the quality of life for his patients.
“From the initial consult to the post-op Dr. Desaloms runs a top-flight operation (no pun intended). From his long and specialized experience, he had my issue diagnosed in ~15 minutes (confirmed with imaging). There was an urgency in getting the treatment and the whole practice understood this and made things happen. The actual surgery process and facilities were literally the best I’ve experienced - my wife and I commented on it while I was in recovery. 100% recommend.”
