Review for Dr. Kanter
Doctor Torres is very kind and professional plus very good attitude with the patients…. The staff is not going the same way … they need to be more careful with the people and respect their time.

Review for Dr. Torre
Dr Suarez and his team took excellent care of me through my right knee surgery. My left knee was also done by him and the quality of skill and care are still there. Six weeks after my surgery I’m swimming, walking, and driving.

Besides being very knowledgeable and professional, it is obvious that Dr. Sanchez has a calling. She is compassionate and really cares about her patients. That having been said, her office is well organized and her staff a delight to interact with.

Kanter was nice when I met him, but the surgery wasn't great and getting a hold of him or his office is very difficult. Expect multiple appointments and delays.I had a small cyst less than 1-inch removed where I was left with a large 2-inch scar. I also had significant bleeding and limited mobility...
