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.

Exceptional Doctor!
I travel hours to see Dr. Gordon for his expertise and exceptional care. He is the kindest, most compassionate, trustworthy doctor and always makes you feel at ease.This last visit he rejuvenated my tired looking eyes and lifted my spirits.His staff is also very friendly and accommodating. I have seen him for years and it is always well worth the trip!

Great Result with Dr. James R. Gordon!
I am so happy with the result of the upper blepharoplasty on one of my eyelids. The asymmetry of my upper eyelids has bothered me for years, and Dr. Gordon came up with a solution I had not considered. The recovery was easier than expected, and I am much more comfortable with my appearance now. I highly recommend Dr. Gordon!

Loyal patient
I've known Dr. Gordon for many years & have always appreciated his incredible skill in keeping me looking much younger than my age. Over the years, I've has some 'help' with my looks but today was particularly exciting as I had my lower eyelids treated. I can't wait to reveal the before & after photos and share the amazing results of his work! THANK YOU, DR. G!!!
