Dr. Orr is an outstanding surgeon I'm so blessed that he was my surgeon, he was professional and very considerate with my condition, I trusted my life in his hands and I will do again if I had to. He has absolutely every tool to make his patients feel cared for and safe in his care. not to mention a life saver indeed. and not to leave behind his nurses were outstanding from the most caring anesthesiologist to the whole staff in Grossmont hospital.
