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.

my understanding is that he was Lead Surgeon at Clovis Community Hosp. We had a difficult surgery with surprise issues in the corner of intestine. So it was a lot of work. A week later he told me it was concerning enough that he isn't sure he wants to repeat the work At 75, I'd agree to agree.

He relyed on only blood work and imaging to find my RUQ pain without even palpating my abdomen. I had to tell him to. He the said, well I guess you have some neuropathy, congratulations, you solved it. While shaking my hand.

I experienced a difficult colonoscopy and dr Arora helped me through it two years ago. The follow up was very good; prognosis was straightforward and real.

I have been a patient of Dr. Arora for eight years. Throughout this time, he has always been friendly and caring. (except one time when he must of had a bad day. We all do!) I could not pay my part of Medicare (20%) but Dr. Arora let me pay a monthly payment. I just payed my last payment after 19 months. How many doctors do that for his patients?

I've gone to Dr. Arora for18 years and he has always been very thorough and caring. He has followed up with me, and even called me on a Sunday to check on me after he returned from vacation. He has always returned calls and his colleagues call if he's not available. I have confidence in him and that is most important.

He is everything that I want in a doctor. Appointment was prompt. He saw me on short notice, He came up with a process quickly that included tests, and after the tests he followed thru communicating the results. He then made recommendations for follow up

He is not a surgeon. So if you want something removed, like hemorrhoids, forget it. A huge disappointment since this was the sole reason for going. His office should have said up front they don't do this.

I did have a lot of respect for him until he completely dropped the ball on my husbands case by not following thru on his labs and not ordering even a scan w/contrast to realize that his 2 bile ducts were blocked and caused him to get very ill. After hospitalization delaying procedures and taking shortcuts. Family felt he didn't follow up properly due to my husbands DX and prognosis. Very sad as my husband had to go thru an extra month of hell due lack of judgement on aromas part....

I really like Dr. Arora, he's a quite man who will listen to how you are feeling. He has done a lot for me to try and figure out what's going on before diagnosing me. I feel very comfortable around him although he can come across intimadating. I will recomend him to friends and family in need of a good GI.

He doesn't like people who ask too many questions and who want their test results to take home. His staff is very unfriendly and have been rude at times. I will no longer be going to see him and would never recommend him to anyone that I know.
