Great visit, but this is the second time my wait time approached an hour. Will reconsider returning due to the impact on my time.

I was in and out quickly. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I actually saw not just the doctor but an excellent assistant as well. While I walked in dreading another doctor who wanted to feed me pills instead of talking with me about lifestyle changes I walked out confident that I am moving in the right direction with my health.

Wait time was average and their availability is pretty good considering they are open late on Wednesdays (till 7 PM).
Dr. Alvior's beside manner was average. I visited three times and I got about 15 minutes of face time each visit.
What earned Alvior's practice two stars is his horrendous support staff. Every time I spoke to or joked with an aid or admin person they stared blankly at me. I'm no longer using Dr. Alvior as my primary because my latest bill was sent to collections due to them not having an up to date address (never received a single call or E-mail about the balance).
When I spoke to the office manager and persistently asked why I never received a call and that someone should have called me to alert me to the problem she ultimately said "I'll keep that in mind".

The waiting time was longer than usual. But I believe it is because he is very thorough on his explanation. He is very knowledge able and he takes his time with you not like other doctors that rush you out the door so they can see their next patient.
July 24, 2015Jose C.Verified patient
I think this doctor is great he is one of the few who is interested getting to the problem or illness you may have and working with you to get you better.
June 12, 2015Peter R.Verified patient
Great doctor great staff and always a great experience ....he really looks out for you double checks before giving meds and even cross check between multiple meds given to make sure the side affect are at to minimal or none. Great listener and knows his stuff as what you would expect a doctor to be.

Dr. Alvior gets you in and out and has impeccable bedside manners. In a day and age where healthcare means waiting for days/months/years to be seen, Dr. Alvior gets you in immediately. I highly recommend him and his entire staff of professionals.
December 16, 2014Laura L.Verified patient
I can't waste time waiting to be seen. I'm charged a fee if I'm late. I would like a text telling me he is running behind. I will be there within 15 minutes of getting the text.
October 16, 2014William C.Verified patient
The wait time was less than normal wait times at other offices I've been to. Dr. Alvior was very kind and made me feel comfortable. He listened to my concerns and was very thorough with his evaluation. I left feeling fully informed and like I am in good hands under his care.
October 7, 2014Andrea K.Verified patient
Too long of a wait. But he was very nice and thorough. However I believe I have to go back b/c what he prescribed for what he diagnosed I have (acute bronchitis) isn't working for me. :-(

Other than passing the office because my GPS was slow it was good. We addressed what needed to be addressed. He was attentive and understanding.

All of the office staff were very nice and compassionate. Very flexible and understanding with my complicated schedule. Dr. Alvior was very attentive and easy to talk to.
August 8, 2014Tiffany W.Verified patient
This was my first visit, so it was a fairly long one (especially since I have not been to a primary care physician in years). All of the staff were courteous, knowledgeable, and willing to explain anything in detail. Dr. Alvior himself was responsive to my concerns and was good at narrowing those down to the things I should really be concerned about (and explaining which things were to early to tell without proper lab-work).
Overall, a great first experience.
