Patient Reviews
Jun 29, 2018
I have found Dr Torres to be extraordinarily concerned with positive patient outcomes. I have been his patient for over 6 years now and have recovered from a bilateral lung transplant and a variety of serious ailments due to his experience dealing with complications resulting from organ transplantation issues. I am very pleased with Dr Torres and sincerely hope he remains my physician.
