As someone else said most caring and knowledgeable doctor my family has been blessed with knowing. Saved my life once and also saved my vision with a torn retina without his wise counsel 100% sure vision in right eye would have been gone. Treated numerous people who were down on their luck but needed care.

Went to visit Dr. Orme on a few times, I like him a lot and wanted him to be my primary health care provider... charge me $380.00 and rendered me no care or any other services. after I complained about the cost since I'm self pay they lowered it to $295.00. Stay clear if you have a car wreck...

I'm very appreciative of the time Dr. Orme spent with me in making his diagnosis. He took the time I needed to help me fully understand my health issue. I highly recommend Dr. Orme.

Prescribed meds for strep with no culture taken, claimed fever without taking temp. Also, made accusations of child abuse because child has ticks and a bedtime after 8pm. Child is 12 and is wonderfully sensitive therefore also traumatized by this Dr attack on his family!

Dr. Orme was very friendly and he even kept up with my records even though I haven't seen him in a while. I did not need an appointment and he even gave me his cell number to reach him if my condition got worse. He was very helpful and I would highly recommend him for anyone who is looking for a great doctor who is actually looking to help people for a change.
