"I'm being treated for GI related issues for more than a year and my condition has become worse. I weight has dropped to below 94 lbs. Still he is unable to figure out the root cause and treat me. Also his services are so slow like ordering tests etc. Better to avoid him."

"I went to see Dr. Torosis after being referred to him by the Urgent Care Staff and Sequoia. After a brief consultation, Dr. Torosis gave me medication and told me I was too young to be having stomach problems. A few weeks later, I came to see him again, stating that the medication was not working, he suggested having a colonoscopy to see if there was a bigger problem that he missed. After having the colonoscopy, I was told that he had removed a few cysts, and that there should be no concerns. I went home, slept or a few hours, and was feeling relatively fine, with the exception of every time I went to the restroom, I was finding large amounts of blood in the toilet. My husband took me to the ER, where I was admitted, and checked out by the on-call GI, he mentioned something had gone wrong during the colonoscopy, and that I would have to have another one first thing in the morning, around 6am. At 4:00am, I was prepped for the second colonoscopy. At 6, Dr. Torosis was no where to be found, at 10, he still wasn't answering his pages, at 11, I called his office personally, he sent over an associate at 2:30, to see what the problem was. At 4:30 that day (over 30 hours of bleeding), I was graced with his presence, where he then told me I never needed the colonoscopy, and that he was only giving me a second one to make me feel better about myself- WORST BEDSIDE MANNER! I then had to wait until 7:00 that evening to have the procedure done, he decided that he didn't need to wear scrubs, told my husband it was all in my head, and then found that he didn't clamp the incisions properly from the first procedure. I decided to see a different GI, who was able to figure out what was causing my original pain, and allowed me different options on how to treat it. I understand that everyone makes mistakes, but waiting over 36 hours to fix your mistake and then taking the blame is not tolerable. "
