My former psychiatrist retired. I found Dr. Alva and made appt for 2mo later. A few days before the appt, the ofc called me to reschedule it. Next available was 2mo later. I showed up at the ofc and the ofc told me it had been cancelled the day before and they had forgotten to notify me. Made next available appt another 2mo later. I called the day before to confirm. I saw him as scheduled. He asked me to see him again in 1mo. The ofc asked me if I'd prefer to come in again, meet over Zoom, or phone; I chose phone and made th... read more
Dr. Alva did not consider possible organic causes of my late husband's neuropathy, simply ordering one medication on top of another, masking symptoms and delaying his diagnosis of brain cancer. A simple CT scan would have identified the tumor at an earlier stage, likely giving him more time and better quality of life.
My daughter had the worst experience with this Dr. She has seen quite a few psychiatrist because insurance, etc. Dr. Alva is by far the worst ever. He let her wait for hours and then doesn't listen nor care, prescribes her horrible "uppers" meds, which are dangerous for her. He is only a show-off doctor with no knowledge whatsoever.
Absolutely horrible. My experience with this psychiatrist and his staff. If I could rate this psychiatrist as a "0," I would. I was treated disrespectfully from both his nurse practitioners and himself. The doctor and his NP's treated me like an addict and not a patient. The worst bedside manner of any psychiatrist that I have ever met.
I don't know why the little rating he's an excellent doctor very caring and very professional with an amazing staff I highly recommend in
Not sure why there are low ratings, I've had a great experience.
The only reason that I have been a patient of Dr. Alva's is because my he was referred to me by my insurance provider and he is local. All of my appointments and psychiatric medications prescribed through the years have been with various Nurse Practitioners. In all honesty, I have no idea if Dr. Alva is even in the building when I come in for an appointment. For more than a year because of COVID all appointments are over the phone with various Nurse Practitioners. Most of my appointments last 10 to 15 minutes and an instant ... read more
I known this man for 25 years. The Chief Resident. I been reading a few review sites with him this morning. Mostly, this is a staff problem. Some of the staff is actual Family. Much changed for the better when Jazzie and Angie showed up. There has been rotation as couple of issues 3 staff core office and mgr that has passed years ago. Medical Students do not realize as the rotating staff that Dr. Gus Alva is like Tony Stark from Marvel Comics. He is Top 5 in the world and has been involved in many medication developments in ... read more
This office runs much better since the management change, no cancellations and no more extended wait times. Dr. Alva and Tanya are a great team, they answer my calls and return my messages the same day. I'm very happy with the new staff.
