REVIEWS
I had a very good visit with Dr. Arevalo. I had an issue with a hernia, he explained in detail on the type of hernia and what to expect during surgery.
After surgery, my recovery has been very good. My incisions were small and allowed for quick recovery.

Dr. Arevalo is a great doctor and a skilled surgeon. He has a great attitude towards his patients. He took the time to clearly explain what needed to be done, and why, and answered all my questions.
I met with him on Tuesday for my consultation and he was able to schedule my operation for Thursday. I was up and walking the same day and was able to go on a flight to start my vacation on Saturday.
I felt minimal discomfort after the surgery and only for the first couple of days. I'm very happy Dr. Arevalo is my doctor and would recommend him without hesitation.

Dr. Arevalo did a great job on my husband who had a dead gallbladder. He took it out robotically and he came to see how he was doing every day while in the hospital.
I can’t say enough about him or the practice. They are very professional in the office and always willing to help. He is a Godsend. I hope he never leaves the Tomball area!

Dr. Arevalo saved my life! First, he accurately diagnosed my condition from the CT scan that the Radiologist failed to catch.
He determined that I needed emergency surgery and performed the surgery on a Saturday night that stretched into the wee hours of Sunday morning. Afterward, he visited me in the hospital every day and clearly communicated what I needed to do to recover.
I will be forever grateful to Dr. Arevalo for his expert care and dedication!

Dr. Arevalo is knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and most importantly a skilled surgeon. I first saw Dr. Arevalo after a Gallbladder Removal Surgery in Austin, Texas by another Surgeon had some complications.
I was in excruciating pain for 5 days and saw no end in sight until Dr. Arevalo saw an abnormality on my CT scan. 5 different doctors and Surgeons were working on my case at the time, but he was the only one able to see the abnormality and got me into surgery that night completely relieving me of the pain I was in.
Dr. Arevalo’s attention to detail and surgical skill is something that no patient should go without.
