Carlos Torres MD

Dr. Torres is a pediatrician at MGH Chelsea HealthCare Center and Associate Director of Diversity & Equity at MassGeneral Hospital for Children where he closely works with medical students and residents. He was born and raised in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico. He moved with his family to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, during his teenage years, afterward attending the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He received his MD from Harvard Medical School, then attended pediatric residency at MassGeneral Hospital for Children and served as a chief resident. His clinical and research interests include immigrant health, disparity research, LGBT health, and resiliency. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with his partner and dog, catching up with his nine siblings and many nephews back home, traveling, and gardening. He is looking forward to returning to the Longwood area regularly (and re-visiting the surrounding delicious Mexican restaurants that helped him cope with his longing of home).
