Rheumatologist Cindy Rodriguez-Silva, M.D., Joins Stormont VailStormont Vail Health is proud to announce that Cindy Rodriguez-Silva, M.D., has joined our medical team and will practice as a rheumatologist, bilingual in Spanish and English.
(Topeka, Kansas, Aug. 20, 2018) – For Dr. Rodriguez, pursuing a medical degree began as a desire to help her family, several of whom suffer from serious health concerns.
“I saw how they suffered and had to try to understand complex conditions, knowing very little about health care,” Rodriguez said. “I am now able to assist my family, and my patients, with navigating through their diagnoses and treatment plans by sharing my knowledge with them.”
Dr. Rodriguez received her medical degree at the Universidad de Monterrey, Monterrey, Mexico, in 2012. She completed her internal medicine residency at St. Joseph’s Regional Medical Center, Paterson, New Jersey, in 2016, and her rheumatology fellowship at Einstein Medical Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 2018.
Dr. Rodriguez believes a strong patient and physician relationship plays a key role in patient outcomes. She strives to spend extra time with her patients, learning more about them than just their disease process.
Dr. Rodriguez enjoys spending time outdoors with her husband, a general and trauma surgeon at Stormont Vail, and her young son. She enjoys cooking, traveling and experiencing other cultures.
