Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Rude, condescending, and poorly flashy.
Dr was incredibly rude, condescending, and misdiagnosed my father who he put on a restrictive diet for over 5 years before my father saught out another Dr. And was told his condition wasn't caused by food. 5 years. Dad's 91, so basically the last 5 years of his life was made unnecessarily difficult by Dr who is more interested in his flashy clothes than his patient.

He got to the diagnosis which was a huge step. While trying to get there, he was not sensitive to my situation at the time (I was in medical school (DR) - and my mid-20s self was now having their whole world flipped upside down with a rare diagnosis). He was difficult to reach for answering questions. When we did talk and I was upset about the future and scared about the diagnostics, he basically said I needed to grow up. He wouldn’t answer questions about the additional labs that didn’t pertain to the diagnosis of the condition. He called me a nurse during that conversation because of my gender and was condescending during the conversation. When I finally was diagnosed, he didn’t want to consider alternate meds with less side effects. I found a different doctor who was open, sympathetic and respectful of my situation, and they started me on that medication with less side effects and it worked beautifully. Never would I recommend this GI to anyone.

Dr. De la Torre: More than just a doctor!
I've been under the care of Dr. De la Torre now for the past five plus years due to a liver disease called NASH. Dr. De la Torre is the most passionate and caring doctor I have ever seen before. I say he's more than just a doctor but a good listening ear and certainly very easy going and he really helps alliviate all my worrys I have regarding my health issues. You might have to wait a while before seeing the doctor but the wait is certainly worth it. Thanks Dr. De la Torre.

My vital and history info was not entered correctly in the system. Prescription was sent late and incorrect. Dr highly recommended a procedure then file it to insurance company as diagnostic instead of preventative. When i followed up, he said it is bc of my age.

Guy was sarcastic, had this humor sort of like not taking your concerns seriously, so as a preventive doctor, he is terrible. Obvious pains, and symptoms for years were downplayed like I were joking or making them up without any preventive care plan to ease worry. Like talking to a wall. From what I gather he only takes you seriously if you are already in the late stages displaying signs of black stools, or passing blood etc. Early stages/symptoms he just downplays you with his dry humor. avoid.

WOW ! A physician with a sense of humor. Hard to find these days...especially one that seems extremely medically competent, patient, cordial and concerned. Took the time to explain the problem, without unnecessary alarm. Took the time to work with scheduling for a stat procedure the next day with his associate. This is a large practice but this guy is worth waiting for. I am very comfortable in sincerely recommending him.
