DR Alvarez is a great doctor. I consider myself a tough patient. I have Anorexia Nervosa and I realize kind of stubborn sometimes. I have multiple stomach problems which has been brought on by this. DR Alvarez tells me the best ways to handle it. She has great staff as well. Thank you DR Alvare, for all of your help and caring!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Alvarez for 8 years. She is very knowledgeable and thorough and takes her time to listen to me. She explains everything so that I can understand it and will always do what is best for me, whether it be doing an ultrasound or blood work. She is the best gastroenterologist in town.
