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.

Doesn’t truly understand insulin pumps and therefore will not prescribe the actual amount of insulin you need. Accused me of either intentionally wasting or illegally selling my script. If I could give a lower rating I would.

I have been seeing Dr. Alvarez for the past 3 plus years, and I love her she helped me when I found out I had breast cancer and right away recommended me to a oncologist and emailed them personally to get me in right away. she has always been very caring and her patient care is great. I highly recommend her to others needing specialist for their Thyroid , best caring doctor and spends time with her patients and getting what's needed for that patient and explains things well.
