"My first impression of Dr. Alvarez was..WOW, what doctor goes beyond the call of duty like he does? I never have to wait to hear back from him in my emails, within an hour or so he has responded and answered my questions. He wants his patients to be happy, that is his first and formost concern and he makes sure any way he can that you are happy. He returns his calls almost immediately and I find him to be the most compassionate doctor I have dealt with, in my entire life. No doctor can even compare to this man, you have to experience his compassion to know this, he loves his work and he loves his patients, that is obvious in his every word and action.rnOf all my research on this doctor, there is not one thing negative I could find, nor have I heard any negative word spoke about him. I am so looking forward to him being my surgeon.rn"
