About

Dr. Nancy M. Silva

 
 
Hello, I’m Dr. Nancy M. Silva, a Board Certified Pediatrician. I’ve practiced since 2000. Our practice is Small World Pediatrics in Wesley Chapel, FL where we live. I’m a blessed mother of two amazing kids!

I graduated Medical School from the State University of New York Downstate College of Medicine, which in February 2019 was ranked 4th among top medical schools across the country for training our future physicians.  The Castle Connelly “Top Doctors” list noted that “Over 900 of the leading doctors earned medical degrees from SUNY Downstate.”  My Pediatric Residency training was at University of South Florida, College of Medicine. I’ve been in private practice since 2000.

As a medical student, I had the privilege to care for children at Kings County Hospital & Downstate Medical Center in urban Brooklyn, NY. As a resident, I cared for children at Tampa General Hospital in Tampa, FL & All Children’s Hospital in St. Petersburg, FL.  My training gave me the ability to diagnose and manage a variety of conditions amongst a diverse population of children, spanning many nationalities, backgrounds, and social needs.  These experiences helped shape the Pediatrician I am today.
 
On this blog, you’ll find parenting advice, practical tips & reassurance. Over the years, I’ve wished I had more time to talk with families during an appointment.  Unfortunately, for many reasons, there isn’t always the time to do so in the office.Here, I give more time to educate families & answer questions, meeting a need for both myself & families. It’s my mission to help nurture confident, happy children through great parenting & love.
