List of Paul Alvord's Reviews
As soon as you walk into this doctor's office, "Payment in Full" is demanded for your visit! Then start filling out the "Patient Check In" forms you already did before your appointment, because the forms you filled out online, beforehand, "didn't come through". Eventually, after the scheduled time for your appointment has long passed, you'll finally meet Dr. Alvord and then you find out he's a smart alec, "know it all" type who smirks and is uncaring towards your suffering. Their main priority here is your $$$, not your health and wellbeing! Dodge a bullet and do not go here!!

Dr. Alvord is a fantastic doctor, highly recommend him. His office staff are wonderful and very fast. I had my lipoma removed by him and everything from A to Z was quick and very professIonal. I could go to work the next day, no pain at all with a very fast recovery. I met him twice in his office and total time I spent there was less than an hour overall. Everything was done quickly and professionally.

Dr. Alvord took care of my husband so well. The surgery went fantastic and his bed side manner is amazing. He answered all of the crazy questions we had and was very caring! When we were going through one of the scariest times he was there and made us feel more comfortable about the process. We Will always remember Dr.Alvord and his team! Very thankful!

Although I hadn't required any surgical procedures for the first 60 years of my life, I did some research and learned Dr. Alvord performed his Internship and Residency at Naval Medical Center, San Diego, which I thought was impressive. He operated on me for a hernia repair three years, and not only was my recovery quick and uncomplicated, the scar was barely noticeable. The second surgery he performed was much, much more complicated intestinal surgery a few weeks ago. Each time he saw me on his rounds, he expressed genuine interest in how I felt and if I had any questions or concerns regarding the healing process. Basically, he had to remove some of my damaged intestine, then reconnect the two healthy ends. Two weeks after my release, my health and energy have returned to almost full strength. I have no pain, am able to eat whatever I want, and am glad I had the procedure. I highly recommend Dr. Paul Alvord to anyone trying to decide the best surgeon when events require one.

Best surgeon ever. A perfect hernia surgery and later a perfect abdominal surgery w colon resection this month! So kind and concerned about pain- even returned to the hospital again to do a procedure the nurses couldn’t do! This kind and super doctor and surgeon is meant to be a doctor! His office staff are great!
