    How do you help manage chronic conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure?
    Dr. Torre acts as your healthcare quarterback, monitoring your chronic condition through regular check-ups, managing prescriptions, ordering lab tests, and coordinating with specialists like endocrinologists or cardiologists to ensure comprehensive care.
    Do you provide care for children and teenagers as well?

    Dr. Torre will determine if a specialist is necessary and will provide a referral to a trusted local specialist. Dr. Torre will continue to coordinate your overall care, receiving updates from the specialist to maintain a complete health picture. This ensures a smooth transition and continuity of care.
    Can my family doctor help with mental health concerns like anxiety or depression?
    Yes, Dr. Torre can help with mental health concerns like anxiety or depression. Family doctors are often the first point of contact for mental health, providing initial diagnosis, managing medications for common conditions, and referring patients to specialists when needed.
    Can you remove a mole, skin tag, or wart in your office?
    Yes, Dr. Torre can often remove moles, skin tags, and warts in the office using methods like cryotherapy or excision. However, for any suspicious-looking moles, an evaluation will be performed, and a referral to a dermatologist may be necessary.
