  • “I wanted to thank Dr. Alvi. When I scheduled my knee replacement for May 11, I told him I needed to be able to dance and hike for my daughter’s wedding in October. I wanted to let him know I completed a 5-mile hike which was up in the mountains in Montana. I was so excited the whole time, even though it was really hard ha ha, but just the fact that I could do this was amazing! Reaching the end of the climb we were rewarded with a stunning view! Just as he promised, I was able to dance and have a wonderful time at our daughter’s wedding! Thank you so much! Truly an amazing doctor!”

    — Lauren Z

  • “Two months ago, Dr. Alvi gave me a total hip replacement. There are not enough superlatives to praise the system of patient care he and his team provide. I was assigned a nurse navigator for questions and concerns before and after surgery. My navigator, Sonya, was knowledgeable and an excellent listener. If she couldn't answer a question, she sent the concern to the clinic staff, who were equally wonderful, especially Jenny, one of Dr. Alvi's amazing PAs. The whole team, including Dr. Alvi, welcomed questions and answered them in a way I could understand. They arranged at home and outpatient physical therapy so I'm on the road to recovery. Hopefully I won't need another joint replacement, but if I do, Alvi at Barrington Ortho is my top choice for care. Thanks, Dr. Alvi!”

    — Pat Z

I love his work and him as a person.”
