Dr. Gordon - thoughts/opinions?

Post by hotblondee »

I'm looking to get people's opinions/experience with Dr. Gordon from Mount Sinai's Pain Clinic in Toronto (Canada). My doctor's office called me to let me know they got me an appointment for July. I'm just curious to know what to expect and how he is with patients.

I see Dr G and I find him very nice. He's sometimes a bit distracted, but gives you your time with him, answers your questions, & is thorough. He listens & offers you things to try, but isn't pushy about it. He's rarely on time though, but won't cut you short to make up for it.

Take a list of questions you want to ask him, & write down answers so you can do your own research. Ask him what he thinks & recommends, because he's a wealth of knowledge.
On the road of discovery to see what is causing my PGAD.

Thank you. I'm happy to hear. I'm hoping there's something he can do to help me. Nerve blocks, Lidocane IV infusion, pain meds (with exception to the ones I'm still on) have all failed. Keeping my fingers crossed that someone will eventually try something on me that will give me some sort of relief.
