Dr. Torres is my new neurologist and this is the second time I have seen her. I'm very picking who my neurologist is because my last neurologist was my doctor for a long time. I felt that my next neurologist had some ?big shoes? to fill?. Well she slid right in those shoes and took over my care with such knowledge and care. My new neurologist makes me feel special. Thank you Dr. Torres

Dr. Torres is Great! I have been a patient of her's since before Banner took over ( 11 plus years ) BUT since Banner took over there is MORE paperwork- I had to check in twice before even getting to clinic. Cost has more than doubled. And clinic is overbooked and under-staffed.

Dr. Torres and her team expedited my appointment and were very professional and thorough. They made sure I understood my medical condition. I left knowing my next steps, what I need to do to be safer, and scheduled my EEG and MRI. Honestly, I went in scared and left with a sense of calm. They went above and beyond.
