Tri-County Heart Institute PA

I am grateful to be a patient at Tri-County Heart Institute. I love the personal touches by Dr Alvarez and the NPs. I have a great deal of respect for those who go out of their way to make your visit comfortable, personal and caring. When I expressed concern over a small (to me) issue, Dr Alvarez took my hands and reassured me. She offered a solution and initiated the change to my prescriptions promptly. She also addressed concerns about another medication I was prescribed by my PCP and made suggestions to help minimize side effects. I love the podcasts as well!

As a new patient - waited for 1.5 hrs for a consult with Dr. Alverez to go over my bloodwork. I told the staff at the previous visit I was not doing the stress test or the CMT test as I already had a vascular screening and did not want to have to pay out of pocket for these test at this time. They scheduled up the appt. with Dr. Alverez. Waited for 1.5 hrs. a nurse came in -had to give her a breif update on my good health but told her I would prefer to discuss this with the Dr. - She said she would tell her, I said I would prefer to do this. They let me sit there and finally someone came in and said - because I did not take the stress test Dr. Alverez would not see me. Really??? you cant come in for 5 min. go over my labs and ask that I schedule it up before the next appointment??? Discusted. Asked for a refund for the office visit.

I have been seeing Dr Alverez for over 6 years and find her to be the best in her field. Really cares about her patients I know as she cared deeply for my husband until he passed away from cancer.

Absolutely the most professional and caring group from nurse practitioners to beautiful and sweet very knowledgeable Dr. Alvarez. So Blessed to have them to care for both my husband and myselfs health.

I have been seeing Dr Alvarez for several years. I feel that the care I get from her is great. My care has been consistently a good experience. I see her once a year and at 6 months I see one of her very competent Nurse Practitioners. The staff is friendly and very responsive.
