Dr. Granacher highlighted Senator Alvarado’s many legislative achievements in advancing the health of the citizens of our state. Senator Alvarado balances his responsibilities representing his senate district while still working as a practicing physician, volunteering at a free medical clinic, and taking care of his family.
