Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Terse and dismissive
I found Dr. Orr's demeanor to be terse and dismissive. I do not feel that he listened to, or appreciated, my sincere health concerns. I am a male, over age 50. He ignored several things on my intake survey, which is unsettling.

Amazing Dr! Very thorough! After having the same Dr for over 20 years who Never even touched me during what was supposed to be a complete annual physical, it was incredible to find an old fashioned Dr who actually spends an hour with you, going over your medical history, listening to you, doing a complete physical including a pelvic and breast exam since he also practiced as an obgyn. My husband is now also going to him and he finally got a real examination also which included a prostate exam and fecal occult exam which our previous Dr never bothered doing! We pray he never retires!

On a previous review I see that someone said that Claremont Medical Center was on Foothill. There may be a Claremont Medical Center on Foothill but the office at 430 W. Baseline Road, where Doctor Orr practices, has been operating at that address since the late sixties. Nothing has changed. Dr Orr has been my family physician for many years. He delivered my son and treated my aging mother with genuine care and respect until she passed away at 92 years of age. He’s an amazing physician.

Dr. Orr prescribed medications to my 83 year old father that jeopardized his health to the point that he had to be admitted to the hospital. The doctor was not thorough in checking out his health history before putting him on unnecessary medications.
