Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Worst bedside manner ever
Cold and uncaring. Doesn’t care for senior citizens well. I have some serious medical issues but was made to feel like I should just give up. He was not willing to help me with options for a better quality of life. My doctor of many years retired so I am at the mercy of finding one. He will not be it.

Amazing Doctor that you can trust
Dr. Alvarez has always made me feel like I am the only patient in his office. I am never rushed nor ignored when I bring up issues that I am having or when I feel my meds need to be changed. He has been one of the few doctors that I have seen that has made me like I can put my health in his hands.
