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.

Called Dr. Alvarado after hours as my father is a new dialysis patient with concerns. He was not feeling well and wanted to find out if he can continue using his medicine as prescribed prior to today's surgery. He was very upset that we had called him to what he did not consider an emergency. He was rude and arrogant. Definitely not a doctor you want to leave a loved one with.
