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.

He's quick but very gentle. He has a good and happy spirit about him.

My first visit to the clinic was on what was clearly a very busy day. I appreciated everyone I interacted with for treating me with the utmost kindness and respect, despite their workload. They were very organized and patient oriented. Dr. Torres was amazing and made sure to take his time in the exam room with me. The sonographer was also especially kind and thorough and made me comfortable and excited for my new journey.

I really do recommend Dr. Torres! Every time I’ve come in he’s been so caring, he listens, and makes sure that I’ve asked all the questions I went in with. The office staff is so sweet as well. Never have I had a problem with appointment scheduling or getting any documents that I’ve needed. I’m so glad I chose him as my OB/GYN.

Dr Ruben Torres is so rude. He is NOT compassionate at all especially when my family member needed emergency surgery for a cyst the size of a basketball. She couldn’t even. Walk . Dr Ruben Torres wanted her to wait one whole week to remove the cyst . We had to wait on him . My understanding g is if a dr is on call he is on call. That means if he is on call and it’s an emergency this is priority. He wants to be on call, delivery babies, see patients in his office . We had to get a second opinion with dr Susan hunter and she totally the opposite from him . She did a great job did the emergency surgery and my family member is doing great.

Wait times are to be expected, but there is very limited seating and too many appointments scheduled at once. Other than that, always a great experience!!

I’ve been looking for a new OBGYN for a few years now after mine passed away. It was difficult after seeing him for 24 years. Phone contact was friendly and appointment was scheduled the next day. Welcoming staff, minimal wait time and the Dr has a great bedside manner. Found my new place!
