He provides excellent care. But the billing office does not follow their contract with my medicare advantage plan. My card states I have a $10 copay yet they have been billing me for the balance of the $55 charge per office visit. They are sending me to collections. I only owe my copay they have to except this as full payment according to their contract with untitled healthcare.i am on ssdi and can't pay the large payment they want. I can only afford my copay. They call hemselves Christians but
He listens to the patient, really cares about his patients, and genuinely cares about providing the proper care/treatment for each person. He's very warm and friendly and I highly recommend him.
My wife scheduled a meeting with Dr. Torquato due to my high BP, pre diabetic condition and weight. I meet with Dr. Torquato he asked me some questions and listen to what I wanted to do with my life. Dr. Torquato asked if I was willing to make a life style change to my character, spiritual and physical traits. Dr. Torquato put me on a 16 week program. I have lost 48lbs so far, I feel more energetic, the medications reduced, my BP is back in normal range and my walk with Christ is much closer
Dr. Torquato has been my primary care physician for nearly 7 years. He is a very personable, kind and knows how to practice medicine. He encourages healthy living, lifestyle changes as well as medications when necessary to assist in the healing process. He has helped me through some MAJOR health life-changing events. He is a great doctor!!!
Dr. Torquato is perhaps the most caring physician that I have ever encountered on the three continents that I have lived in my lifetime. His generosity of time in every appointment, his thorough and recorded exams (allowing me a paper copy to take home!), and his words of encouragement and prayer address my physical, mental, and spiritual needs. Furthermore, his free clinics and healthy life style classes have been a huge blessing. He inspires me to be better in all ways.
I appreciate the services Dr John and his staff provide at reasonably affordable prices for those of us who don't have insurance. His staff are always friendly and helpful, whatever the issue I may be visiting for. I like that the Dr's are willing to listen and don't just rush you through the process like you are cattle or an inconvenience, as I have experienced in another local clinic. I let others know that they should definitely go if they are looking a family physician.
Dr. John Torquato has been my family doctor for a number of years. He is honest and caring and genuinely interested in my wellbeing. Every time I have gone to see him he has spent at least thirty minutes with me giving me solutions to my problem and caring for my overall wellness. i feel I could talk to him about any problem I'm experiencing and if he could not take care of it he would recommend me to someone that could. I trust him very much.
Not satisfied. I know when an infection has progressed into something worse because of having it before off and on since I was 18. Seems like this place is more interested in ure money than actually helping you. So never again will I go to this place and ill spend the xtra hundred to go to urgent care instead where u receive better care and ure given results that work. The medical staff at the walk in clinic in hayden, Idaho sux's big time!
Business response:
Although I do not recall the case and there is no indication on what the treatment plan was in order to know why you were dissatisfied, I am generally quite aggressive with infections. We charge a very low 59.00 fee to see minor infections in order to make ourselves accessible to those that need our assistance. I am sorry if your expectations were not met. I would have been happy to discuss your needs to see if there was anything else we could have done to help your situation, if I had known.
He almost killed me with his recommendations. He told me to stop taking my Actos and take 4 doses of Glipizide instead. I finally went to an endocrinologist when my blood glucose levels got worse. She told me to never drop the Actos and taking more Glipizide was irresponsible. So I never went back and they have charged me for $25 dollars for not comming to my next appointment. It has affected my credit rating and he should never be a doctor with his attitudes.
Business response:
In 2016 Actos had been implicated in cases of possible bladder cancer. If you used Actos for more than 4 years at that time it would be reasonable to try to protect you from the potential of bladder cancer. I follow up medication changes closely. Apparently in your case we did not have the opportunity. All patients are provided our no-show policy. No-shows prevent us from scheduling other patients who need care. I wish I had been better able to meet your needs. JT
