This was mu third pregnancy and it was a difficult one. But Dr. Torres and the nurse practitioner Ms. Tila Broadway took very good care of me. I was very afraid and Ms. Tila was very reassuring and helpful throughout my whole pregnancy. The staff is great. I'm really gonna miss dealing with everyone they mad this extremely hard time go as smooth as possible. I would highly recommend them.

WARNING. This comment is in regards to this doctor's improper destruction of medical records. This doctor destroyed my daughter's records improperly and has no remorse. My wife is currently pregnant and we were requesting the delivery records from her 1st child's birth in year 2000. The state board rules clearly state that doctors must keep these records until the child turns 21yrs old. When I called Dr. Torres office, I was told by Tim in billing that the records were destroyed after 7 years and he proceeded to try and educate me on the state law. After getting lectured by Tim I called the State Board and was told that rule #165.1 clearly states that the records for minors must be kept until 21. Also, I was told that when a doctor delivers he now has 2 patients the mother and the infant. The mother's records can be destroyed in 7 years but the infant's records must be kept until 21 . I called back to try to talk to Dr. Torres himself, after several tries I was finally able to reach him. This was not a pleasant conversation, his attitude seemed to be how dare I bother him with something so trivial and how dare I question his "authority". The story had changed, Dr. Torres now says that my daughter's records were destroyed at 10 years because that was the law requirement. When I told him I had already talked to the state board and was told the retention requirements were 21 he became very hostile and hung up on me. When I called back, his office wouldn't take my call. It gets better, an hr latter Dr. Torres himself calls back and leaves a message on my recording (which I still have) stating that he just called the state board and talked to the director and was told that before 2012 doctors were required to keep records for minors for 10 years and after 2012 it changed to 21yrs . I found this information very suspicious so I called back the Texas State Board and explained what Dr. Torres had said. The State Board had no idea what Dr. Torres was talking about and couldn't find this "Director" he talked to. It was explained to me that this rule 165.1 (which requires keeping records until age 21) has been in the board rules since at least 1997. This whole situation has been very disturbing for my wife and I. In the beginning, if Dr. Torres would have just admitted he made a mistake and apologized I would have accepted it. However, his DECEPTION and lack of remorse is appalling for a so called "respectable doctor" Like the old saying goes, it's not the crime, but the cover up that is the problem. So let this be a warning to future mothers DON'T TRUST THIS DOCTOR TO MAINTAIN YOUR INFANT'S RECORDS. The best solution is to get a copy of the labor and delivery records right away and make a copy and keep it yourself in a safe place. I never thought I would need these records so many years later, but you never know, so it's better to be safe than sorry.

I have not even had my baby yet and I am so terrified to deliver with Dr. Torres I am now at 27 weeks pregnant trying to find another OB. At my last prenatal appointment (I haven't even met or seen Dr. Torres yet, only meet with an OB nurse), I was told they had no record of my previous appointment. None. They didn't have my weight, BP, temp, none of the concerns I brought up, NOTHING. This is terrifying and grounds for malpractice. What's even worse, Dr. Torres works with West Houston Hospital. After being hurt and sent to Labor & Delivery to be monitored, I was placed in a room where women were recovering from C-sections. The L & D nurses talked to these poor women like they were idiots. They were beyond rude and uncaring. Then, with my curtain drawn, I hear Dr. Torres arrive. He asks a nurse where the c-section was that he had been called to the hospital to do. The nurse informed him it had already been done. Dr. Torres laughed and said "Well I'm still going to charge for my drive up here!" And WALKED OUT. He didn't check on ANY of the patients (who God only knows who actually did their C-sections since he didn't). He didn't even inquire as to their well-being. He just wanted to make sure he was going to get paid. Smh. Avoid this man and his practice at all costs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m so grateful to Dr Torres for all he has done for us. I appreciate the beautiful job he did with my c-section and tummy tuck. People around me can tell the difference and I look slimmer than before. My surgical part healing perfectly and it looks great. he quiet compassion, talent, professional, kind and generous. I’m so lucky to have him as my #1 doctor. God bless you Dr Torres. And by the way other people who wrote negative comments that they never met Dr Torres ,if you ask nurse or front desk lady you want to see him ,he will be available upon your request.
