About Me
Dr. Charles Orton is a gastroenterologist with more than 10 years of medical experience at Oak Ridge Gastroenterology Associates in Oak Ridge, TN. Dr. Orton said a personal experience with esophageal issues helped lead him to his medical specialty, as well as the benefit of long-term relationships with his patients and the ability to do various procedures. When he’s not practicing medicine, Dr. Orton enjoys spending time with his three daughters, fishing, and watching college football.
“I love what I do in gastroenterology, and I truly feel the most reward with patient improvement.”
