"My first impression of Dr. Alvarez was \"Oh my, he is HOT\". LOL I hope he is as good a surgeon as he is good looking! Seriously, Dr. Alvarez has a wonderful gift of being able to calm you down and talk to you in a way that makes you feel he is your best friend. He explains the proceedure and answers all your questions in a non-hurried manner. I was surprised at how many times he checked in after surgery, even on Sunday. I am very happy with my experience with Dr. Alvarez and reccommend him to all."
