Dr. Roger De La Torre, MD

First of all, I love this office because many of the nurses are bariatric patients themselves - including the nurse practitioner! They’ve been through it so you know they really know their stuff. Got some important advice just from the nurses during those first few weeks after surgery. Dr. De La Torre is friendly and has a great bedside manner. He explains things well and in a way that’s easy to understand in layman’s terms. Office is always super clean and nice. I have had complications from my gastric sleeve, but even so Dr. DLT took all my concerns seriously and was quick to investigate. I appreciate how thorough he’s been during that process.I was sleeved 4/4/2023 - down 75 pounds and counting!

In 2011, Dr. Dela Torre performed a Ruen Y (Gastric bypass) on me. I was 330lbs. He assured I'd try to lose weight on my own and by the day of surgery, I was 303. He was kind and compassionate. At MU his staff and he explained everything to me and explained why I had to agree to post surgery visits for a year, which I did. I can say, he is a skilled surgeon and was even told that he'd invented the laproscopic bypass procedure. I trusted him with my life under the knife. In 2023, I weigh 174. Think about the impact he has had on my life. I've nothing but good things to say. Anyone who complains, I'd guess, is the very demonstration of "Karen."

I have never been treated so horribly by staff in my life. I waited 42 minutes for an appointment and after 30 minutes inquired with the receptionist, who said "they are busy". I was not seen by a Doctor for nearly an hour-only to find out that the scheduler set up the wrong appointment. I was very specific when I called in the appointment that I did not want surgery. I was there for nearly 2 hours and paid $40 for nothing. When I tried to get clarification to ensure that I was setting up the correct type of appointment, the scheduler would not confirm. I asked the receptionist for a call back from the office manager. I cannot afford to lose another 3 hours off from work and pay $40 to have another wrong appointment. The receptionist said the office manager would call me back that day. By 10 am the next day, I had not received a call back, so I called. When Bobbie did call, she said they are considering letting me go as a patient because I called too many times.....

Great doctor! Dr. de la torre and Dr.Scott done my surgery in May 2020, so far excellent experience. Office staff are very helpful, listen and explain in a way patients get it. Very clean office, and clean exam rooms. All of them have a great bedside manor. Would 1000% recommend!

Dr. Del-a-torre and his team have given me the opportunity to take control of my health and continue to give me the tools I need to stay on track! I will be forever grateful to each of them!

I felt so comfortable talking to the nurses and my doctor. I cried at the end of my visit because I felt so at peace that I was finally going to have my life back thanks to these amazing people.

Good Doctor....have had no problems since my sleeve surgery....

I found all the people who work in Dr De La Torre's office to be helpful and kind. They are attentive and informative. They listen to your questions and answer each one with respect. I would recommend Dr. De La Torre to any family or friends looking into bariatric surgery. Excellent surgeon, I have had a great recovery.

I am just beginning my journey. My initial visit was wonderful the staff was great and informative the resident dr. Dunn was awesome. I am ready to go forward and have No Reservations. Dr. De La Torre was very caring.

Just had my 9 month appt with Dr De La Torre and it went great. He is always informative, interested in my journey & he truly cares. Thank you!

My initial consultation with Dr. De La Torre was great! I went in thinking that I was going to get one procedure and after speaking with him he told me about another procedure that would work better for me. At first I was a bit apprehensive about the new procedure, but after he explained it to me I felt a lot better about it. I am really looking forward to working with him and the rest of his team as I begin my weight loss journey.

Horrible Dr. Pretty sad that most of his patients have had complications.

Dr. Was very kind and courteous. I am a more high risk patient and he was/is wonderful about taking every issue into consideration. Leave no stone unturned approach. Very thorough. All the staff is great and informative. Great resident doctor even. Very professional. I am a very happy patient. :)
