Dr. Alvarado grew up in Dallas-Fort Worth and experienced first-hand the havoc wreaked

quality of life.  Immunotherapy and other treatments have given her relief, and she loves 
helping others feel better, too.  Dr. Alvarado believes it is important to get to know her 
patients, their environment, and their goals so that she can learn how best to help them.
