Jordan Torres, DO

I did not always know that I wanted to become a pediatrician. Before I wanted to be a doctor, I wanted to be a fireman, an architect, a child psychologist, a cook, and an animal rescue volunteer. What all of these paths shared was the ability to positively touch the lives of families on a personal level. I was pursuing my child psychology degree when I realized I wanted to help children not just in their mental wellbeing, but to walk alongside them and their families throughout all aspects of their health. I became a pre-medicine major the next day.

I grew up in Dallas-Fort Worth and I am proud to come from a family of hard working firemen, paramedics, and self-taught carpenters. I was the first in my family to go to medical school, and I lived in and fell in love with the Keller community while attending Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine in Fort Worth. It is a genuine honor to serve Keller now as a community pediatrician.

Like my patients, my family is the most important thing to me, and I will care for your family just as I would my own. I want to be a source of trusted medical advice for you and to stand by your family throughout all of life's stages. It is my sincere belief that everyone who cares deeply for children is a child themselves at heart: hopeful, resilient, compassionate, joyful, and honest. I aim to always embody those qualities for my patients and their families.

It is a privilege to be your child's doctor and advocate, and I cannot wait to get to know you!
