Carlos Alvarez, DMD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (Dentist) provider holding DMD credentials at 1601 SW ARCHER RD, Gainesville, FL, 32608, with a listed phone of (614) 390-3017. NPI 1497798433 was issued on 06/14/2006. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Alvarez most recently submitted to CMS rather than a vetted directory listing, which is why patients should always confirm the practice is still at this location before scheduling.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 92 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 53 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $550 in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 31.5%. These figures capture only Medicare Part D, commercial insurance, Medicaid, and cash-pay prescriptions are not included, and any drug-beneficiary cell under 11 is suppressed by CMS for patient privacy.

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (Dentist) is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 7,631 enrolled providers across 52 states and an average of 378 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
