Patient Reviews
Jan 22, 2024
I am a physician myself and I have been a patient of Dr Torres for a few years. I saw him recently for a worsening of my condition. My experience with him has always been excellent. He is punctual and thorough both in his history and his physical exam. He is organized and logical in his treatment approach. Also he is very personable.
