From an early age, I was drawn to the world of maternal health, inspired by the transformative power of childbirth. My journey began in nursing, where I spent seven years as a labor and delivery nurse in New York hospitals and volunteering in a birth center in Haiti. In time, I realized that my passion is midwifery.
As a Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM), my mission is to provide holistic, patient-centered, and compassionate care that uplifts and supports every birthing individual during their unique journey. I blend my deep clinical expertise with a compassionate, culturally sensitive approach.
Midwifery, to me, is more than a profession; it is a philosophy of care that honors the physiological process of birth while ensuring safety and respect for each individual’s unique journey. With each delivery, I strive to create a supportive space where my patients feel heard, informed, and empowered in their healthcare decisions. I am proud to join the FemmPro MIDWIFE Team and look forward to co-creating personalized birth plans with our pregnant patients, managing pre-and post-partum needs as well as the full suite of gynecological needs from contraception to menopause.

“This is a ZERO star review!
I am very disturbed and upset with how dismissive I was treated, no one should feel like they are unseen and not heard, especially when it comes to your health!
I had my first planned c-section that was performed by Dr. Behr due to my baby being breech. Initially everything seemed like it was going well until I started experiencing extreme pain in my pelvic area about 3 weeks after my surgery.
I scheduled my first post-op visit with Dr. Behr. First, he was about 15 min late coming into the office..that's understandable..things happen. I was willing to wait for him because this was also my first visit with him and I really needed to br seen. Dr. Behr came into the office, didnt acknowledge he was late and didn't ask me any questions as far as how I was feeling or how my recovery was going either. He was in such a rush to look at my incisions that he proceeded to do it without even closing the door and giving me privacy! Someone was walking by and i had to asked for them to close the door.
Dr.Behr did apologize for that and said that was a "oversight".
He proceeded to look at my incisions, took the tape off and said everything looked "good" l told him I was in extreme pain, it even hurts to get out of bed and when my bladder is full, I can barely even walk to the bathroom because of the pain. And that i feel pain even when I'm just laying down.
After repeating myself a few times about my pain, Dr.Behr then said he would order a urine sample.That was the only thing he ordered! He didn't even examine the area where my pain is or ask any other questions!
Then, to my surprise, he ordered a UTI test! I don't have a UTI, nor did I explain any symptoms that would describe me potentially having a UTI!
I felt, he did that just to rush me out and make me feel like he was "doing" something. There is a huge concern for this pain I am feeling and I felt like I was dismissed and not heard! It should of been taken more seriously especially by someone who actually performed my surgery and more than a UTI screening should of been done! This is such a shame I had to experience this lack of care especially after a c-section and that he scheduled my next follow up 4 weeks from now! I will not accept this dismissive care and will be looking for someone one who will listen to me and really treat me right! ”

With a special interest in proactive, preventative healthcare, Dr. Torre empowers patients through education in Menstrual disorder, PMS, PMDD, STD prevention/treatment, Contraception, Preconception, Infertility, Hormone Replacement, and Menopause.
“Dr. Torre is amazing. However I am very disappointed that I had to wait almost 2 hours to meet with the doctor. There were only 2 providers and they overbooked. The whole waiting room was mobbed! I couldn’t believe that they would overbook like that. I’ve never seen that before and I must say if this happens again I will have to switch doctors even though I don’t want to”
