Patient Reviews
Jun 21, 2019
I incurred damage from radiation/chemo last year. I was diagnosed with osteomyelitis (bone infection). I spent the first part of this year on IV Pump antibiotics. I was in ICU at one point on sepsis alert. Since last year 4 doctors have worked tirelessly to keep me alive and one of them is Dr. Alvarado. From our first meeting he has been honest and frank. I like to know the truth. He has been timely, answered all my questions and he showed me kindness on days when I was unsure of my future. I will be under his care for quite a while. He made the right decisions regarding medications, suggested treatments etc. I will be forever grateful to him and his fellow drs for saving me. Sometimes others think they know best but this man's years of specialized training and hands on experience is priceless to me. I recommend him without any doubt. His patients are all very ill me included. My grandchildren need me around and he is making that a reality. I am getting better.Thank you
