Dr. Torero is a great listener, with immense knowledge and very patient. After seeing one other pulmonary who just tells without listening, I was recommended by a friend to see Dr. Torero, I do not regret it. I rate him 100/100.

Dr Torero is the only doctor to make my 2 year old consistently laugh when she’s in the office. She usually cries when any doctor tries to listen to her heart/lungs but always lets him. Very knowledgeable, answers all of my questions and really cares about his patients.

What an AMAZING doctor! Dr. Torero spent so much time with us going over health history and concerns. Every detail mattered and he asked so many questions to try to help us figure out the root problem to my son’s health issues. Even once we knew my son was ok with his breathing, he still brainstormed with us and gave us ideas to lead us in the right direction & get us support in finding possible reasons for illnesses. Felt very important and “heard.” And we follow up in 2 months to make sure the breathing is still on the right track.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
