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.

Best pediatrician in town! When my daughter was a patient of Cape Ann Pedi and misdiagnosed for over a year with anxiety, I finally removed her and started seeing Dr. Orr was on top of the symptoms and had her in Boston Children’s for emergency gallbladder surgery within days of transferring her over to him!! He’s amazing!

Best pediatrician on the North Shore. I know many/most pediatricians love caring for children, which is why they became pediatricians!, but Dr. Orr just goes above and beyond. It's hard to put into words just how concerned and caring he is for the well-being of his patients. He is the best of the best.
