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.

I love Dr. Alves and everyone on her staff:)
I've been going to Dr. Alves for so many years I've lost count. She and her staff are willing and able to listen and help with any kind of problem.

Wouldn't want any other dr
I've been with Dr Alves for many years and the past couple years has been brutal for me to say the least. Dr. Alves has not given up and continues to work with me, follows up, researches goes above and beyond. I'm truly grateful to have her as my PCP.

Dr Alves was available to take our family in when our Doctor that we so dearly loved closed down his practice. I had scheduled a first time appointment with dr Alves and was 8 minutes due to traffic which is normal. The receptionist tells me that Alves has a 10 minute window and that she has canceled my appointment. After taking time off the work and bringing my baby in with me, she asks if I want to reschedule. No thank you. Never again.
