Very impressed with Dr.Chavez we talked bout a lot of different topics about sleep Apnea I never knew
Overall informative, caring willing to go out of way to get and help understand possibly health issues.
Dr Chavez is an excellent caregiver. He comes prepared with information from your chart and knows why your there. Very rare these day. He listens to you and acts on your concerns for health issues. I appreciate him for his care and his knowledge. Great physician
Even though I was bumped right in, he still took the time to see me and spent as much time as necessary to get his normal procedures done. He was not rushing to get to the next appointment. He gave me his full attention!!
Dr Chavez very graciously saw my husband right after my appointment because I told him how he had missed his own appointment due to my breast cancer surgery scheduled for the same day. We truly appreciate Dr Chavez for doing this!
Dr. Chavez is knowledgeable, caring, and professional. Highly recommend him!
Again, Dr Chavez is amazing. He is smart, explains complex ideas to be easily understood, comes up with achievable goals and is personable and kind-not common these days.
Dr. Chavez was excellent! He spend a good deal of time talking to me about my sleep issues and, if I am able to receive treatment, how much it will help my condition.
Dr Chavez was very attentive and concerned with me about my cpap experience. He was very helpful with making me comfortable using my machine. I have seen 4 other sleep doctor never have a had or worked with a doctor like Dr Chavez. He is as concerned as I am about my well being and comfort using a cpap, he explains so I understand the benefits of having a cpap. He is professional and caring.
I really liked the doctor. He listened and informed me of anything I needed to know about my sleep apnea. I would like to continue with him as my sleep apnea doctor.
Dr. Chavez made me feel confident in the sleep treatment I will do.
I have been seeing Dr Chavez for a little over a year (since my sleep apnea was diagnosed), and I have found him to be great! Over the years, I have gone with my husband to his sleep doctor appointments, but I really never felt the level of care matched his needs. From the first, Dr Chavez has demonstrated a level of concern to how the therapy is working. No other doctor has suggested seeing them a few months later to double check how the adjustments to the machine are impacting our sleep. What a difference!!!! He is the best!!! I have recommended him to friends!
Dr. Chavez was excellent. First doctor who really looked at what my CP results were saying about my care. Made several adjustments, and I had the best sleep in a very long time last night. I was so happy to have listened to my wife saying he was the best! You need to keep such a great asset to Lovelace!
