She believes that fostering the well-being of people who use drugs requires a whole patient approach that addresses root causes, meeting basic needs beyond drug use which contributes to treatment informed and patient centered care.  Dr. Torres’ goal is to empower those seeking to build sustainable, quality and integrated addiction treatment care.  She has a strong desire to promote social justice and equity in practice and to see that the implementation of these principles become commonplace.
