Dr. Torina is the best plastic surgeon. All other doctors wanted to make a big production out of what I needed done and do it in the hospital as outpatient surgery. He did it as an office procedure. All other doctors said I would have a two inch visible scar. You cannot even see that he did anything. Aside from being an excellent surgeon, he is a nice person who is caring and compassionate. His staff is top notch. If I ever need anything else done, I am happy he is my doctor and feel confident that he will treat me with the utmost skill and care. I was referred to him by my physical therapist who had a patient fall and injure her face. He was the plastic surgeon that the ER called. He did such an amazing job that I was told to see him. I am glad I did and you will be too.
