Patient Reviews
May 24, 2017
Dr. Alverez (or Uncle Alverez, as my kids refer to him) is amazing! He takes his time with each patient, he's thorough & clear -making sure you, as a parent, understands what's happening. He's good to the kids and loves each one. He genuinely loves his job and it shows. I wouldn't have any other Ped for my kids. We were lucky to find him :)

About Me

Care Philosophy
  • Dr Alvarez has practiced Pediatrics for nearly three decades. In addition to general pediatric care, Dr Alvarez offers adolescent and young adult care. What is your patient care philosophy? I listen and observe patients&rsquo needs before dispensing care or advice. Why did you decide to become a physician? I never intended to be a physician. My &ldquonerdiness&rdquo initially led me to study chemistry and biology, with the hope of becoming a biochemical engineer. Along the path, I found myself desiring to be in the foreground, rendering medical care. What interesting facts would you like to share about yourself and your family? I was raised in the South Bronx, residing in public housing.
