Always displays the highest level of professionalism and is a great communicator on every visit. Easy to talk to and gives easily understandable explanations about my situation. He goes out of his way to make you feel like you just had a visit with a good friend. I wish more medical appointments would be like his, FIVE STARS !!!

My visit with doctor De la Torres was a outstanding visit. This doctor/ Veteran as well, took the time to listen to my concerns. Even to say he was a better doctor from my previous. For a patient to say that is because he did not make me feel like a number! He actually cared and if anyone would want to be heard and assisted I highly recommend to see him
