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.

Not very caring about your feelings and he just dismisses your thyroid problems.

Dr. Torre is the best doctor I have. Spends time with me and REALLY listens to what I have to say. I never feel rushed, and I have complete confidence in his advice and recommendations. I don’t mind waiting a little longer because I know he’s giving the same attention to the patient before me.

Dr. Torre has a lot of experience as an endocrinologist. It is very difficult to get an appointment with him, and be prepared for a long wait in the office to be seen. I find him to be nice, and personable.

If you don't mind waiting a month to get in (every visit).I would have to keep reminding him of things he said he wanted done or for medication (age?). Talks to you like your a child without a brain. And hasn't done anything for my hyperthyroidism. Except meds that haven't changed anything.
