Patient Reviews
Jul 04, 2020
Dr.torres has been my doctor for over 10 years..i love him.. he takes time to listen and is very helpful and friendly.. i wouldn't have anybody else as my doctor?.. i have HIV and after 2 months of being his patient ive been undetectable and ive stayed that way.. he treats all my illnesses..i trust him with my life. Hes also goes to other places to volunteer like when Puerto Rico's hurricane ruin the island he went there and offered his services for free causes hes a caring man.. hes very small..ge keeps up with all the latest medicines and does seminars.. i recommend him highly..and not too many people know he's also a new York city police officer.. and he's my friend forever.. a good Christian man with integrity..hard to find a man like him.
