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.

Warm, knowledgeable, professional
I highly recommend Dr Alvarez. I was hesitant to have a male OBGYN but he listens, he’s knowledgeable, he works with my preferences, and his staff is professional and happy. The only drawback is that finding the office building is confusing. But once you locate the building, just take the elevator to floor 2 and turn left. I highly recommend this office and this doctor, grateful to have found a competent and warm professional.

Excellent every time.
I’ve been seeing Dr Alvarez for years and he is always caring, clear, informative and kind. I never feel rushed and he makes sure I am taking care of my whole health, not just my gyn stuff. Professional and courteous.

Nice Dr
I had a uterine biopsy and it was very painful. Thankfully procedure was short in duration. This isn’t any reflection on Dr Alvarez, he is very thorough and helps you understand any treatments. I would recommend him to other patients. I think he is a wonderful Dr.

Great Dr.
I'm 76 and was concerned with pain in my lower back and groin area and wanted to be sure it wasn't anything serious. Dr. Alvarez was very understanding and did a thorough exam and scheduled an ultrasound to be sure he did not miss anything. I feel much better and will continue to see him for my yearly exam. He did not dismiss my concerns like another Dr did last year who said it was my imagination. Very caring Dr.D

Dr. Alvarez is an amazing human being; very comforting, genuine experienced and compassionate doctor. A professional that takes his time to explain/instruct/counsel, always addressing all my concerns. I truly feel very confident and safe while under his care. The rest of the girls in the office are very friendly and very professional as well. I could not find a better gynecologist; 100% recommended.
