Dr. De La Torre is a nonsense kind of doctor. She listens, gets down to the nitty gritty, and asks questions and LISTENS! She's very open and honest and easy to talk to.

Dr. D has been the best doctor I've ever had and I've had a few in my lifetime. She kept it 100% the entire visit and doesn't try to prescribe you for stuff you dont need. She was fun and laid back and made my visit very settling. She was very knowledgeable in everything we talked about.

Dr. De La Torre spent more time with me than I've been accustomed to during a doctor visit. She came across as genuinely caring and didn't act as if she was in a rush to end the appointment.

I gave Dr De La Torre a perfect rating 8 months ago on this site. My recent appointment affirmed that my original rating was warranted. I have nothing but good things to say about this doctor. Her staff is also very friendly and people oriented. If you are looking for a new doctor, you'd be hard pressed to find better.
