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.

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.

Rushed through my long awaited appointment. Only interested in prescribing medications which enabled Pharmaceutical reps to increase their market share and earn commissions.I overheard him on the phone. I left speechless and embarrassed for the "profession." I never returned and have since found another primary care Doctor.
