He is still with the University of Massachusetts Medical Center as an Assistant Professor of Surgery. His focus in aesthetic surgery is in fitness-oriented individuals and bodybuilders, where he aims to provide surgical care with a minimal interruption in their training program. He has written several articles on the treatment of gynecomastia in bodybuilders, published in both peer reviewed journals as well as in popular literature, like Muscle & Fitness and Natural Bodybuilding and Fitness magazines. As a result of his exposure to the complications of drug use in athletes, Dr. Silverman has developed a program and is available to speak with students and other groups regarding steroids and other drug use in sports.
