One of the best clinics I have been to. Dr. VAN DE VELDE and front desk staff are all very friendly and efficient. Dr. VAN DE VELDE even took care of some little thing that was not part of my fam doc's referral, instead of having me make another appointment. We need more doctors like her who's goal is to take care good care of their patients!

We have had a great experience with Dr. Wallace; he is very passionate about his patients' care and friendly, and I'm happy to recommend this skin care place!

The best dermatologist in Winnipeg. I used to have very bad psoriasis for years till I seen him. After a couple visits he prescribed this new drug to me and I my skin started clearing. This was in 2009. I have a lot more compliments but most of the time I am there I am no longer than 15 min and don't wait long. I recommend this great dermatologist to anyone.

This is my experience with Dr. Shane Silver over many years: His old office used to be downtown. Long story short, he gave me wrong instructions and I proceeded to waste countless days for over a year of my time without any message or information letting me know I wasn't using the correct procedure for my situation. They waited until I visited the office 1 year later to ask me why I wasn't doing the procedure correctly, even though I had been sending them updates MONTHLY. They didn't even bother to call when they noticed something was wrong. As a result my treatment was halted by 1 year. I finally started it and ended it happily 6-8 months later. He's a good doctor in that he is knowledgeable and can operate on moles/other surgeries well. But he can (in my case he did) give incorrect instructions and will NOT follow up. He never recognized his mistake and prolonged my treatment. He is constantly booked and I waited 6-7 months to see him the first time. I'm assuming the same old boomers keep rebooking with him always causing him to be full. Chances are that you will take months to get an appointment with him too. Your best bet is to see another doctor within Academy Skin Centre or search elsewhere. I did and have happily gotten treatment with a doctor I have confidence in and can trust. Oh yeah, and be prepared to wait another hour behind schedule as it's very common with him. tldr; Dr. Shane Silver is overbooked and gave me wrong instructions. Good surgeon who's knowledgeable but gives instruction poorly or in my case incorrectly.

Can't say enough good things about this guy and the staff that support him. It took a few visits, but he was able to clear up a persistent and irritating skin problem. But more than the skin problem that I went to see him about, he made sure that I went to see another doctor for a problem unrelated to his field. He even called me a couple of days later to see f I had followed through with what I said I would do. This was above and beyond the normal expectation of the usual patient doctor relationship. More than being professional, it is obvious that he cares about people.

Bri Chauhan

I was very pleased with my two recent visits to this clinic. I had been wanting to try the photo fractional lazer treatment to help with scaring and skin texture. During my consultation I was advised that even though that treatment is an option, on the day of the treatment Dr. Silver will first look at the skin and then give the green light for the procedure. On the day of the procedure, Dr. Silver analyzed my skin and recommended I dont get the photofractional treatment as it wont yield the results I am looking for. I loved his honesty and that he wasnt just trying to get me to do a treatment to make some money. I would recommend this place and would surely go back for other treatments.

Dr Silver and his staff are always professional and courteous. His new office at 500 Academy is a fresh take on his well established practice.

Danny Boychuk

My name is Mary Boychuk. I go for UV treatments here 3 times a week and find DrShaneSilver Clinic very efficient and comfortable. I do not have to wait long for my treatments I'm in and out very quickly which I find is very accommodating.

Robin Yanke

Wait times are awful. Every single appointment had, they run behind over an hour. Book less appointments throughout the day?? Took off work early today and could have worked the whole day and still made it here before I'm seen.

Avi Maslovsky

He is very knowledgeable and his office is state of the art

Laura Bjornson

Angelo

Dr Silver is a great doctor. Awesome bedside manners and knowledge will be recommending to friends and family !

Karolyn Ryback

Dr. Silver is amazing and his staff is fantastic! I saw several Dermatologists to no avail before being referred to Dr. Silver. I have gone from abysmal to totally clear skin for nearly 2 years now. I am grateful. I seldom have to wait but if I do I consider it a small cost for seeing the best Dermatologist in the city
