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.

No compassion!
I have been with Dr. Torvinen for almost 20 years.She use to be great. She use to care. Not anymore! Just awful. Doesn't call to discuss results. All my test came back abnormal. I'm told call and make an appointment for 2-3 months so we can talk about it. No! I'm over it.Great compassion! Time for a real Doctor. Maybe with a better score than 3.2.

Dr. T is my family's PCP and we couldn't be happier with her care. The office stays busy but staff are always very friendly and accommodating. Dr. T spends ample time with her patients, it never feels rushed and all of your concerns are fully addressed. She is well rounded, easy to speak to and my kids love her. Honestly we couldn't appreciate her anymore than we already do. Thanks for being awesome Dr. Torvinen!

My first meeting with DR Torvinen was suppose to be a meet & greet, when I went in my BP was high after talking to her she rechecked my BP and it was higher. She gave me two options 1) I drive myself to the hospital 2) she would call an ambulance. So i went to Saint Marys North and they took very good care of me. I feel That Dr Torvinen saved my life that day and today my BP is way down. Great first impression!! She really cares about my health and works hard to make me even better Thanks!!
