Meet Dean Silver, MD, MD (H)
Dr. Silver is a fellowship-trained cardiologist and integrative oncologist who has combined decades of medical expertise with a deep commitment to integrative healing. After being diagnosed with cancer, Dr. Silver became passionate about exploring therapies that blend conventional oncology with complementary approaches such as genetic testing, immune support, and targeted therapies.
Today, he focuses on educating patients, families, and practitioners through writing, speaking, and sharing research in cancer care, integrative medicine, and chronic illness management.
