He completed his medical degree at Loma Linda University in 1996. This was then followed by a residency in Preventive Medicine. During this time, he completed a Masters in Public Health.

"DR. DANIEL ALVES IS THE BEST!!!! I don't trust doctors, BUT I trust him.  He is very kind but a STRAIGHT SHOOTER..no blowing smoke up my proverbial skirt about the glories of procedures and possibilities of a ways to make my life pain free..we talked...lots...about how to live a quality life in spite of the pain.  I TRUST him...he is always available also.  I would highly recommend this experience.  I have HOPE!  THANKS!"
