“My treatment philosophy is very simple. I try to think of myself as a patient, as I’m treating my patients. Am I giving them the education and the information and the care that I would want as a patient?”

Dr. Marr graduated from Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) and later completed a general surgery residency, urology, and renal transplant residency at OHSU. He finished a research fellowship at Northwestern University in Chicago, IL. Dr. Marr focuses on bladder cancer, kidney cancer, and general urology at The Oregon Clinic Urology. As of January 2018 Dr. Marr received recognition as the first urolift center of excellence in the Pacific Northwest. He is also a volunteer for the International Volunteers of Urology, the Wallace Medical Concern, the Safehaven Community Outreach program and is an organizer for Physicians for Social Responsibility at OHSU.

Dr. Marr has been designated as a UroLift® Center of Excellence. The designation recognizes that Dr. Marr has achieved a high level of training and experience with the UroLift® System and demonstrated a commitment to exemplary care for men suffering from symptoms associated with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), also known as enlarged prostate.
