I’ve had SVT for 30+ years. Dr Torres explained SVT…and the procedure to fix it. It took finding myself in the hospital with 225 bpm for over an hour to finally decide to have the procedure. His team was amazing. Frank, his NP was the best. Had my procedure in January this year and not an episode since. Highly recommend Dr Torres!!!

Dr Torres is an amazing electrophysiologist. I've been seeing him for almost a year.
Dr K. who is my incredible Cardiologist who is in the same office building referred me to see him.
Dr. Torres just did my cardiac ablation February 7th 2023.
He always explains things so well... eases my anxiety and has a great sense of humor.

Dr. Torres is a wonderful cardiologist. He listens and makes suggestions which take into account not just your heart condition, but your lifestyle. In my case, at age 78 I'm still very active, and I can count on Dr. Torres to help me stay that way.
