Manuel Torres's Online Review Report Card

Beware. I got a referral from an Upscale Specialty Practice at Baptist to this guy. One look at his reviews and you can sense a real shitkicker. I stayed away and you should think carefully. Good connections do not make a good doctor

I like Dr. Torres but something is seriously wrong with this office. I was recently seen by the NP, Christine Stewart, and had to reschedule a procedure due to their failure to provide me with referrals needed for medical clearance, even after the NUMEROUS messages I left with NUMEROUS people. Yet again, on the eve of the rescheduled procedure, they had not sent my surgeon the clearance despite my surgeon's and my numerous follow up calls, when they had the lab work and test results since the week prior - unacceptable! It doesn't end there. I happened to check my lab work yesterday which I had done on October 6 and apparently I'm prediabetic, and platelets and white blood count are high, and no one has bothered to contact me. Mind you, I have visited the office several times in the last year expressing my concerns that I have not been feeling well and all my symptoms indeed point to prediabetes. I could have been seriously ill or dead for that matter because of their utter negligence. It is only a matter of time before they commit malpractice, if they haven't already.

Probably one of the worse PCP I have ever met. Doesn't read messages sent through the platform, doesn't respond to phone calls, doesn't follow up on lab work, doesn't remind patients of annual check ups. Fails COMPLETELY to make you feel that he truly cares about your health. I am surprised that Baptist Health would have such low standards when hiring medical staff.

I called in the office for Dr. Torres to refill a headache medication before the 4th of July weekend, knowing I just got out of the hospital and the staff said they would make it urgent. I found out after the 4th of July weekend he denied the medication with no explanation. What I see in Dr. Torres, he is very arrogant and seems to have no empathy. I do not recommend this doctor.

I'm in complete SHOCK that this office refuses to answer or return patient phone calls. I missed a surgery yesterday due to this office not sending a referral to my surgeon! I also have not been able request prescription renewal for medication I need to take daily because NO ONE EVER ANSWERS THE PHONE OR CARES ENOUGH TO RESPOND TO MESSAGES OR EMAILS. This is my health they are playing with and this level of unprofessional behavior should not be tolerated when people's health is on the line. Completely outraged!!!

I should've read these reviews before making an appointment to begin with. I came back from Guatemala with serious traveler's stomach issues and sent a message to Dr. Torres requesting medication to treat it. Didn't get a response until about a week later and to add insult to injury was told I needed to make an appointment. Really?

I used to enjoy my consultations with Dr. Torres. He is easy to talk to. However, you will be charged by the minute for talking to him. At the end of my appointment I was told that they would not charge me for the appointment and yet I got a bill for $47 and was billed for a 30 minute consultation. You have to be careful with these people they always try to rip you off. During the height of the pandemic I had a virtual consultation and was told it would be free then was sent a bill in the mail because THEY made the mistake of not using my insurance. They said someone put me at self pay and I didnt have to pay anything. He was also negligent with my thyroid. For years he told me everything was fine. I had fertility issues and thanks to the fertility doctor who recommended I see an endocrinologist she determined I had hypothyroidism. As soon as my thyroid was under control I got pregnant. Now, three years later he said he can handle my thyroid problems and said I didn't need to see a specialist. However, my blood test came back with an elevated thyroid that just needs to be monitored according to him but when I spoke to my gynecologist she informed me he didn't do a complete check of my thyroid. These people are also very rude on the phone. When I mentioned I wasn't happy with just monitoring my thyroid the woman said how do I know it was my thyroid and not something else. I think by now I know how I should be feeling when my thyroid is not functioning. I will be looking for another doctor.

Good

Dr Torres was amazing!!!!

El Dr. He looks worried about my state of health. Patient listening to me and very clear indications
