Sarah de la Torre, MD

I saw Dr. Sarah de la Torre for my second pregnancy. Dr. de la Torre tailored her advice and approach to my personality and needs. She never made us feel silly for our million and one questions and always had plenty of time during our appointments. She was direct and candid so I always trusted her advice and opinion. I could not recommend her more highly.

Dr de la Torre has been my doctor for over 3 years and 2 children. I switched to her when I was 26 weeks along with my first pregnancy because I had another OB that I didn’t trust. It was a world of difference going to see her. She was always helpful, kind and takes time to answer my questions.
There was a high stress situation with my son’s delivery and am thankful that she was my doctor to help ensure he was ok!

I was a patient of Dr. de la Torre’s for around eight years. Dr. de la Torre is an amazing doctor. She really listens to you when you talk to her, she provides helpful suggestions and solutions to any concerns you present to her. She is very knowledgeable about nutrition and exercise which was really important to me. I had my first baby at the end of 2011, both baby and I were healthy, happy, and comfortable throughout the pregnancy and birth. I had very little stress during pregnancy and labor/​delivery because I knew Dr. de la Torre and her associates would take care of myself and my baby. I recently moved to another state and unfortunately am no longer under Dr. de la Torre’s care. I would highly recommend her to everyone I know. She is very friendly and approachable, she is a fabulous doctor and I miss her!

Dr. De La Torre is my wife’s doctor and recently helped us with the birth of our first child. Reading the other reviews, it is evident that all of her patients feel as positive about her as we do. I am posting because as the husband and father, I wanted to weigh-​in and say that I could not have been happier with Dr. De La Torre and her team and the services provided to my wife and our growing family. While she (and her team) is personable and has a great sense of humor (things that I truly appreciate in people that I work with), most importantly it was clear from moment one that we were in exceptional medical hands. She’s no joke when it comes time to get into it, and just continuously impressed the hell out of my wife and me.
I come in third in the having-​a-​baby-​OB/​GYN-​hierarchy (wife/​mom first, baby second, husband/​dad third), but one of the things that I think is great about Dr. De La Torre is that I always was made to feel like an important member of the team. She made a point of taking time to answer any questions I had and would even inquire as to my perspective on things. I mention this because I have heard many husbands/​dads make comments about how as a man – with other OB/​GYN doctors – they were made to feel like a minimal participant in the process by their families respective OB/​GYN. Given those comments I was very aware of the fact that Dr. De La Torre never once made me feel that way.
In sum, my wife and I truly enjoyed working with Dr. De La Torre and have nothing but exceptional things to say about her and her team.

I have been going to Sarah for about 5 years now. She has helped me through both of my pregnancies and the births of my two girls. Sarah is an amazing doctor. Not only do I feel like I connect with Sarah on a personal level, I trust her completely with my medical needs. She is compassionate, caring, extremely knowledgeable, fun… I could go on and on. In addition, Sarah’s staff is wonderful too. It’s always a pleasant experience when going to Seattle OBGYN.
I don’t ever post reviews online but I feel so strongly about Sarah and her abilities that I decided to write my first review.
I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for an OBGYN whether pregnant or not. She is truly fabulous and will take great care of you.

Could not be happier with Dr. de la Torre — she’s thorough, calls personally to answer questions or walk through test results. All of my appointments to date have felt like I had her full undivided attention and she encourages me to ask questions, refers me to great resources. Highly recommend her — also have to say it helps that her staff and the entire office are incredibly professional, welcoming, and clearly understand customer service. The nurses and front desk staff in particular are always eager to answer questions and ensure you have all the information you need. I’ve recommended Seattle OB/​Gyn to several friends as this is definitely a top notch practice — the doctors and staff remain consistent year over year which was an issue I encountered at some of the other clinics in the neighborhood.

Dr. Sara is fabulous! She makes you feel very comfortable! She is caring and compassionate. She never seems hurried and is very thorough in her exams and answering all my questions. I highly recommend her for your OB/​GYN needs!

I have been seeing Sarah de la Torre since I found out I was pregnant with my 1^st child, in March of 2004. I am now pregnant with my 3^rd and she is still my doctor. She moved practices further south, and I moved further north but I still happily travel an hour each way to see her. She is by far the best doctor I have ever seen.
She was pregnant right along with me with my first 2 and it was fun sharing the experience. She delivered my son when she was 9 months pregnant!
She always takes the time at appointments to answer questions and has always gone above and beyond for me.

I just returned from my first appointment with Dr. de la Torre and i was very happy with her. I always research all my doctors before picking them and the OB/​Gyn group had very good reviews, so being new to the city, i decided to set up an appointment with them for my annual check up.
She was very professional, on time, easy to talk to, very knowledgeable and made me feel at ease. She did not rush, took time to talk and honestly I’ve never felt so comfortable taking to a doctor about symptoms or concerns however minor they may be. And to add to that the pap smear and exam were the least uncomfortable I’ve had in a long time. I would feel very comfortable recommending her to others and to have her being my doctor when i got pregnant. I actually felt confident in her and am glad i can trust her with any health issues if they should arise. This is important as i usually am in great health but did have a minor issue earlier and visited a few doctors, none of whom inspired the same confidence.
Totally unrelated, but if it matters to you, i am glad shes not very old, so i know she will be around for all my pregnancies and baby visits!
Her assistant Megan (?) was also sweet, very friendly and unobtrusive.
The front office staff were friendly and efficient, i didn’t have to wait long to finish paperwork and be taken inside.
Parking in the building was 6 $ for a little over one hour. Not sure if they validate though. i forgot to ask.

Dr. de la Torre is the kind of doctor you’d want to be friends outside of her practice. She’s caring, passionate and sincere. You can tell that she loves her work and truly is there for you. She goes above and beyond for her patients. Whether it’s a congratulatory phone call if she wasn’t on call for your birth, or a call just to check on you. She often took personal time to follow up with me and I really respect that complete dedication to her patients.
I have numerous friends who are also patients of Dr. de la Torre and they’ll all tell you that they have had the same experiences with her. She is truly an outstanding doctor.

Dr. de la Torre is exceptionally bright, compassionate, thoughtful and gentle — everything you’d want in a person who is escorting you on the journey through pregnancy. She’s both an outstanding doctor and an outstanding person, the combination of which easily earns her five stars.
I was referred to Dr. de la Torre by friends and couldn’t have been more happy with her care. She answered my long lists of first-​time mama questions expertly and patiently; I felt like I could talk to her about everything! She also engaged my husband, so he never felt like an outsider. We always felt respected when seeing her and our visits were never rushed. I even looked forward to them!
The most pivotal moment in my son’s life came when, in my last week of pregnancy, Dr. de la Torre decided to do one last ultrasound. It isn’t common, but she just felt like she wanted to have another peek at the baby. At that ultrasound, we discovered a cyst in my son’s brain that required monitoring — and ultimately, neurosurgery when he was six months old.
Perhaps it was a fluke that she ordered the ultrasound at that point, or perhaps she was amazingly attuned. In any case, it saved my baby from a stroke, seizure and/​or brain damage — which our doctors said would’ve likely occurred without intervention. Needless to say, we are profoundly grateful.
My son is fine now, and Dr. de la Torre always asks for updates — her interest and caring continuing long past the point of his birth. I look forward to sharing lots of news in the years and decades to come — because as long as she’s practicing, I will be her patient.
