Patient Reviews
Oct 19, 2018
I’ve been to Virginia Mason and Polyclinic urologists. Dr. Torgerson is superior in all respects. He listens better, connects the dots, comes up with better solutions. No malpractice or refusal to treat sexual function issues like his sub-par competitors. Couldn’t be happier. He also performs delicate procedures himself, rather than delegating to women in their early 20s who actually draw blood by damaging the urethra. That’s Virginia Mason. Only one choice: Erik Torgerson.
