Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Torres is very knowledgeable, proficient

Excellent doctor
My husband has been a patient of Dr. Torres for over 8 years now. He is very thorough during his visits, he always listens, explains and tries to find the best possible cure to the problem. Two years ago he performed on my husband a successful ablation for both atrial fibrillation and flutter. I have recently chosen him too and he as my electrophysiologist and has already given me good advice to treat my symptoms. Grateful to have him as our doctor.

Dr. Torres is one of those rare physicians who is always looking for a better way to treat the patient to achieve the patient goal of a longer, more productive life. He understands the need for a patient to make choices based on his/her own priorities. Dr Torres listens and guides without demanding compliance. There is always a feeling of real teamwork with Dr. Torres and the time he spends with each patient is priceless. His wise and experienced guidance is greatly appreciated and has made a measurable difference in my life and health.

I was referred to Dr. Tortes for a second opinion by my Pulmonary Doctor. I have developed an extreme shortness of breath over the past year since an ablation last January. In my first meeting I was very impressed with Dr. Torres. He listened intently to my issues and ordered some follow up tests. We are scheduled for a follow up when the results of the test are in. I feel confident Dr. Torres will find the solution or direct me to someone that can.

I highly recommend Dr Torres Heisecke to anyone with A-Fib. He knows his stuff and communicates with you in a very peer-to-peer manner, not condescending at all. Explains all conditions and recommended procedures thoroughly. Spent a great deal of time with me, like I was his only patient of the day! If you want a Dr you will feel good about trusting with your heart, make him one of your appointments!!!
