Silverman Receives Award for Commitment to Physician Education
Dr. Barry Silverman with Northside Cardiology was a recent
award recipient from the American College of Physicians for
his contribution to community physician education. In 1973
Dr. Silverman started Internal Medicine Education at Northside,
believing that continued education is crucial because "outstanding
medical centers need quality education programs for physicians."
He is an active member of the American College of Physicians
and the American College of Cardiology, and encourages physicians
to actively participate in medical organizations to ensure
the community is receiving the best medical care. Northside
Hospital congratulates Dr. Silverman on his accomplishments
and his continued commitment to service.
