Patient Reviews
Apr 09, 2022
Have been a patient of Dr. Alvarez for 20 years and he saved my life more than once. Have COPD, asthma, recurring pneumonia and general pulmonary problems since childhood. He explained my condition very well and always prescribes the right meds to help me feel better. I have had to struggle with weak/scarred lungs all my life and am now 66 but know that Dr. Alvarez keeps me going strong, and without him I would not have made it this far. Very thankful for his care and experience over the years, I am lucky to be alive and he is the best

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
