  138. They are very kind & friendly but most of all they are very carefully. If you are hurting they want to know what your pain is and how it feels. If they kind of know what your trouble is they start to work on it. They do test or get imaging …

  139. I have never Posted a review for anyone , I just hate it’s a bad one After my first visit I waited 65 days to hear back from this doctor on where to go to get my MRI done. I had to go back to the office asked the lady at the reception …

  174. Total lack of consistency: refilled my tramadol without seeing me from May till November, then discharged me for being rude to a very rude employee while refusing to refill my pain medication supposedly because I would not come in again. Very rude, uncaring staff, and seldom answer the phone.

  175. First I called 3 times and left messages to try and get an appt. Finally got someone to help. Then went to appt and after waiting for 1 hour and 40 min I finally got to see the doctor. He was great. But they really need to get their time management down better. Office staff were not so friendly

I have been seeing dr Alvarez for 12 years and I would highly reccomend him.

  183. Dr Alvarez was amazing. I had allot to say lol and he listened. Also showing me the back joints and why I was having spasms. I am excited he is on the same journey as me, helping me get back in the gym with no pain medicine. Thanks for all the suggestions.

  184. Don’t get me wrong on my rating, the care is excellent…. In fact exceptional.
    However, the front office staff is disorganized and will most always forget to do what they say! You can call multiple times and remind them and they’ll say it …

  185. From Pain Medicine to wisdom helping us navigate sudden life altering events – he was a true guide and professional. I hope he mentor’s. Future doctors are going to need his experience, bedside manner, and perspective to care for patients and their caregivers like Dr. Garza did for us. Much Love Dr Garza!
