Dr. Alvarez received her certificate in Pediatric Dentistry in May 1997 from the Medical College of Georgia.
Upon completion of her certificate, Dr. Alvarez moved to the rural valleys of Las Matas, Dominican Republic for six months to set up a non-profit dental clinic. Funded entirely by donations, her organization, Instruments of Peace, now employs a Dominican dentist in an office with two dental chairs, a generator, water distillers and an autoclave.
In November of 1997, Dr. Alvarez moved to Jacksonville and practiced pediatric dentistry in several local offices. Dr. Alvarez opened her own office in December 1999. Dr. Alvarez is currently a member of the Cleft Palate Board at Wolfson's Children's Hospital. She is an ABPD diplomate and a member of ADA, …ABPD, AAPD, JDS, and the FDA.
Dr. Alvarez enjoys reading, running, spending time with her daughters, and cycling with her husband. She also loves to dance and wishes that she could have more time for it. Dr. Alvarez has one younger brother. She would love to visit the Galapagos Islands because it would be amazing to see nature untouched by man! Mary Poppins' positive demeanor and love and respect of children make her Dr. Alvarez' favorite Disney character. (Also, Mary Poppins loved to dance too!) Dr. Alvarez loves Italian food, especially eggplant parmesan, "But," she asks, "what can compete with a just right, medium rare prime rib with horseradish sauce and a side of couscous?!"
