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.

Professional, Efficient & Kind

BEWARE. overcharges what insurance will pay.
would give ZERO stars if i could. the staff OVERCHARGES what your insurance pays for. BEWARE. my insurance company called them and told them the extra fees on my estimated bill were NOT to be charged to me. Yolanda (front desk) seemed confused and asked insurance co to send her the contract of what the fees should be.. WHAT ???? staff does not know this already ????? thank goodness i did not get services done there. will NOT go to a dentist who overcharges what insurance pays….. beware……. beware….

I highly highly recommend Dr. Alvarez. He and his staff are outstanding professionals that make every visit an amazing, fun, pleasant experience. I was not a fan of visiting the dentist - I now look forward to my quarterly dental appointments. Everyone treats you with courtesy and respect. I absolutely love everyone at the office. Thank you so much for everything you do! Special kudos to Maria, Carmen & Lina.

Wait time was over an hour and half. After xray was completed, I felt like I was at a car dealership purchasing a car. They tried to upsale me. Glad I changed a dentist and don't have to come back.

Excellent service and experience. The office took special precautions during my visit during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which made me feel extra safe. Apparently, these protocols are based on ADA guidelines. Quality of care with an emphasis on safety is much appreciated! Dr. Alvarez and his team are top-notch!

Dr Alvarez is top shelf in his profession. He also thoughtful and caring. He always answers any questions I have clearly, and gives me good recommendations to follow. His staff (especially dental hygienist Maria) are always thoughtful, caring and professional. Minimal wait time for appointments. Spotless, hygienic office. I don’t dread keeping appointments with Dr. Alvarez’s office because I know he uses the most up-to-date, gentle techniques and equipment.

Dr. Alvarez is Very Highly skilled & precise in his work. Place is clean, staff is friendly, no complaints. He did my crown (designed/placed same day no waiting/having to come back which was great) + 3 wisdom teeth extraction in office. He was patient and very attentive to make sure I was not in pain. All Turned out well and I was fine to work the next day +everything has healed great! Would definitely recommend. I was a bit paranoid prior to the procedure but he put me at ease.
