Dr. Gordon only see adults patients (18 and over).
Dr. Gordon specializes in sports medicine, and foot and ankle surgery. He has a diverse practice, with a special interest in arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgery of the knee, shoulder, foot and ankle.
Dr. Gordon's research interests include lower extremity trauma and the biomechanics of the ankle. He has been an orthopedic consultant for the US Figure Skating Association, American Ballet Theater, New York City Ballet, World Boxing Association, and is currently a team physician for the University of Connecticut Men's Basketball Team.
I have been going to Dr. Gordon for years me in April of 2012 I finnaly had my surgery arthroscopic knee and I was back at work in July. Now here we are December 2014 and I may have to get the other knee corrected. He is very thorough I highly recommend him
Always a professional and has a great staff.
Short and sweet ... I will go back to see Dr Gordon!
Dr. Gordon and his staff were excellent, I'd highly recommend him for anyone with orthopedic concerns. The process of seeing his assistant, getting an x-ray and coming back up for the diagnosis was painless (figuratively) and quick. He clearly explained what my problem was, what I should do to help it, and seemed genuinely concerned about my knee. If I ever have a problem again I will definitely be going back to him.
I have been going to him for years and he did his best to help me but I needed surgery. I had the surgery done 4/10/12 was out of work for 3 months and now my knee is like nothing happened. Now its the other knee same issues so now im hoping to get this one fixed.
The people at reception were efficient but could have been more accommodating to someone in crutches (asked me to get up and down for my insurance card, a pen, etc). Dr. Gordon was friendly and efficient. He answered all my questions and explained the healing process for my sprained ankle. I appreciated his patience. Would see him again.
It just seemed like he wanted to rush me through and I wasn't that happy with his demeanor. However, his staff was great (friendly and accommodating) as was the xray technition. I will finish up with this doctor for my current issue, but I'm not sure about the future. We'll see how it goes on my follow up visit.
Great Doctor. Short wait time. Staff was nice. Doctor explained my problem and did not feel rushed. Would highly reccommend!!
This doctor was literally in the room with me for 2-3 minutes. To say I felt rushed would be an understatement. He simply read my file and told me what he thought was wrong instead of letting me discuss my situation. When I tried to ask a question he acted as if I was imposing. I would never refer anyone to this specialist to anyone.
My experience was great; the wait was less than 10 minutes. I saw a nurse, had x-rays and saw Dr. Gordon in 40 minutes. He was personable and answered all my questions in detail without rushing. Tip: Most of the forms are available on his Zocdoc page. If you fill them out ahead of time, you'll probably get in quicker. I only had to fill out two short forms while I was there.
Very kind and knowledgeable Office staff was wonderful and so helpful.
He is a good doc.
He is through and a good man. youtube.com/watch?v=NMwB5uIWOOI
My appointment was excellent. His office was efficient, he answered all of my questions. I did not feel rushed. I was impressed with his knowledge. I already recommended him to my colleagues.
Very professional. Diagnosed my issue right away & gave me treatment alternatives to resolve my problem.
Very pleased with the way I was treated thanks Dr. Gordon
I had a 2 PM appointment and arrived about 30 minutes early. I was seen 5 minutes later, If that's not great service, nothing is!!
I went in to get my foot and ankle x-rayed. I was out of there with a walking boot an hour after I arrived. Everyone was super nice and helpful.
I had a very lovely experience today. The office staff was very nice and helpful. Dr. Gordon was the best, He knew exactly what my problem was. I highly recommend this office for any orthopedic problems. 2 thumbs up all around!!
Doctor Gordon is a great person tells you that facts and if you have any questions regarding your situation or treatment hr takes the time to explain it. The staff is also great.
A bit too long given that I saw him for only 2 minutes, and knew that an MRI would be needed to have a more substantive examination.
He was very nice and thorough. I will be seeing him again soon.
Dr. Gordon's support and medical staff were very courteous and attentive. Dr. Gordon took the time to listen to my questions and concer. he alsi took time to explain the injury and treatment.
I went to see Dr. Gordon for a follow up and only say him for 30 seconds. I just don't think it's fair to have to pay and get none of his time or feel like your issue matters.
First time visiting Dr. Gordon. I would highly recommend him to anyone. His staff was courteous and friendly. Once seeing Dr. Gordon (barely any wait) not only did he explain my injury but answered all of my questions and didn't rush out to his next patient. I felt very at ease with his knowledge, diagnosis and recovery plan. I will certainly continue to use Dr. Gordon as my primary orthopedist and highly advise others to do the same.
Nice Doctor-listened to my issues without rushing me.
He was quite efficient and professional. Appeared to be quite competent.
I thought the office was a little disorganized. They forgot to give me the prescriptions and when I called to see if they could call the pharmacy, they declined.
All around aweful doctor! I saw Dr. Gordon after a lower back injury; 3 separate visits. He was very vague in his responses to my questions, and did not take the time to explain MRI results, PT instructions, and general next steps. I normally don't take the time to write reviews, but thought I'd save others the time in avoiding a terrible doctor.
Outstanding!! Was able to get a next day appointment. Was treated very well and he had an excellent bedside manner. Seemed to be extremely competent. Would highly recommend.
He was overall nice. The staff was rude and dismissive and they didn't make me aware of what was really wrong or that I would need a prescription.
Barely listened to my symptom description and just wanted to keep the visit as short as possible.
He is very pleasant making you feel at ease. He is professional and also gives you different choices on the treatments available.
I'm so glad I went to see Dr. Gordon. He's knowledgeable, thoughtful, careful, and helpful!
I think doctor Gordon was fantastic. Super nice guy that makes you feel comfortable and confident that whatever issue you are having will be remedied. The only downfall was the ridiculous wait at the beginning. I had to wait a FULL hour before being seen. "See, you know how to take the reservation, you just don't know how to *hold* the reservation and that's really the most important part of the reservation, the holding. Anybody can just take them." - Jerry S.
I got to the office before my appointed time and was seen within 15 minutes of getting there. This was ahead of my scheduled time.
There was no wait and everyone working at the office was very nice, however if you are someone who likes to understand your injury and ask questions I would not recommend this doctor.
My wait is usually about 10 minutes. I got in late so I do not blame Dr, Gordon.
Outstanding. Doctor was great and was really impressed with his knowledge and attitude. Would Highly recommend.
This visit was better than my last visit. He took more time to speak with me and answer questions.
Very quick Doesn't fully explain things
I have been to Dr. Gordon a few times. He seems to have less time and give less attention with each visit. I have developed a chronic condition and feel as though I get no guidance with regard to what I can do to help manage or improve the condition or what activities to avoid that might make it worse. I am getting increasingly frustrated and disappointed. We'll see how the MRI looks and then maybe it will be time to find another doctor.
Dr. Gordon is a thoughtful, knowledgeable and supportive doctor. He saved my ability to walk properly with surgical repair of my EHL tendon. His confident and cautious demeanor has helped me tremendously through this difficult injury and I am very grateful I found him!!! Thank you Dr. Gordon!!
Everyone in the office was very helpful and courteous. Dr. Gordon was a direct speaker so no confusion on his recommendations. He was courteous and informative.
Dr. Gordon was polite and friendly.
I really liked Dr. Gordon. I came to the office with foot pain as a second opinion after my foot has not healed in 5 weeks after the injury. He was very knowledgeable, was able to identify the issue and was very patient. I always ask many questions and he answered each one without making me feel rushed. I would definitely recommend him.
good Job team
Dr. Gordon and his back office staff are professional and courteous. Wish I could say the same about his front office.
Great medical skills, good bedside manner
I had a good experience. It was fast and professional.
Quick and efficient.
Professional and kind... Overall, awesome experience.
He was ok but seemed like a typical doctor trying to see as many people as possible in one day. He could've been more thorough.
Quick and nice
His good and take care good of his patient... l
Examined and took the time to explain what was wrong with my shoulder. Outstanding doctor. Would highly recommend!
He's terrific. Gets right to the point. A pleasure to deal with and he always resolves my problems with the best recommendation. Staff are excellent - friendly and efficient.
it seemed a little rushed, but overall he sounded like he was very knowledgeable
Dr Gordon is a wonderful doctor. I would recommend him to anyone who's in need of a orthopedic doctor.
I feel the doctor does not pay enough attention. He only saw me for 2 minutes
Dr. Gordon seems more interested in maximizing the amount of patients he sees than spending more than 2-3 minutes with you. I've seen him twice now and neither visit was thorough or in any way conclusive. I was referred elsewhere to have a test done that ended up not accepting my insurance. I called back to ask for an alternate location and was promised a return phone call with this information but I did not hear from them. I called the next day and was transferred to one of his many rude staff members and was ultimately hung up on.
Staff is kind of surly but Dr Gordon was nice. Doesn't spend much time with you but he answered my questions.
Does not care about patients, just about getting them in and out as quickly as possible. Do not recommend.
No waiting excellent diagnosis.
I found Dr. Gordon on Zocdoc and with all the good reviews I decided to go. I went to him after I slipped and buckled my knee. I had an MRI done and low and behold needed surgury to replace my ACL and my meniscus. I was really scared about doing it and he suggested starting physical therapy before having to do the surgery. Eventually i realized how painful my knee was getting so i set up the surgery, had it done at Beth Israel in union square. They are soooo nice there! They have a taxi set up to pick you and take you home which is awesome, especially considering i needed to be at the hospital by 5:30. It's now 2 weeks since the surgery and I'm walking normally but won't heal 100% until another 6-12 months. He's a really nice doctor and has been doing this for over 20 years, (told this by one of the nurses) and i highly recommend him. My sister and a coworker have already started seeing him as well.
Dr. Gordon is polite and caring. An overall great experience, I will return!
Dr. Gordon and his staff were outstanding. I injured myself skiing and he correctly diagnosed me. He is very knowledgeable and the office was able to get me an MRI that day. I ended up just needing therapy and am back skiing. Great experience highly recommend him!!
I would not recommend him to anyone I care about. Examination was unsatisfactory, rushed and he was condescending.
Dr. Gordon is a great guy. Good advice. Doesn't rush you.
As per the other comments, yes you do only see him for a few minutes but the entire practice is quick efficient and knowledgeable. The people at the front are a bit standoffish but they are just doing their job.
Everything was Ok and staff are very professional. But Dr Gordon was a bit in rush. My overall experience was very good. He is knowledgeable
The visit was short and sweet. In and out in under 30 mins.
Dr. Gordon seemed very knowledgeable and professional. Though he only spent a few minutes with me, he seemed to know what he was doing. Great demeanor and incisive medical analysis
He and his medical assistant were kind, attentive, and active listeners. Dr. Gordon was great at putting me at ease and explaining the diagnoses and treatment plan.
I called the office to ask if he could treat my condition, and was told he could, but when I actually arrived and met with him, he said he didn't deal with that issue. Frustrating -- but not the doctor's fault. He was very nice and warm and wanted to do what he could despite the fact that my issue was not his specialty.
Quick and efficient visit to assess a shoulder joint dislocation.
Outstanding!!! Dr Gordon is excellent. Had knee surgery with him from a basketball injury and have recoved and feel great. He does have a busy practice but the office staff was great and he was very caring and attentive. I went to two other doctors before deciding on him. I would reccommend him to anyone!!!!
Dr. Gordon is very calm and professional. I highly recommend.
So fast, so friendly, this guy knows his stuff. I went for a minor injury and was amazed at all the pictures, certificates, and award from NYC fire fighters and police. I felt like I was wasting his time with my not-so-serious injury but I was treated like #1 patient!
He was great and make you feel comfortable I would recommend anyone to him.
Dr. Gordon and his staff were very professional. I know they are busy, but wait time was long--especially since I had made an appointment. Dr. Gordon was worth the wait, though
He is awesome!
It was very quick, but I didn't feel rushed. He was very efficient and compassionate. I was pleased.
Mostly helpful and capable
This was not my first visit to Dr. Gordon, but it was my first for this issue (ankle injury). They saw me as soon as I arrived. Attention from staff was good and Doc followed up on the reason for my previous visits too. Very pleased. Thank you.
My follow up appointment with Dr. Gordon was a joke. He blatantly pretended to "examine" me, which meant touching UPPER back . Note my injury was in my lower back and my (trusted) Physical Therapist cleared me. Dr. Gordon's office had me wait in a chair-less room for 15 minutes and was clearly not interested answering any questions. I strongly recommend you see another orthopedist. I certainly shall next time I have any issues.
He is exceptional. Didn't sugar coat my injury and gave me a path to recovery.
Dr. Gordon seems to know his stuff. He tried conservative approaches to my shoulder problem for 8 months when he could have recommended surgery sooner. He's personable and approachable, and he takes the time to listen to me without making me feel rushed. I trust him to operate on my shoulder in a few weeks.
Still waiting for MRI results before a treatment plan is put in place, but I really appreciated his bedside manner and his patience and attention. His administrative staff is a little gruff, but he more than makes up for it.
I've been seeing Dr. Gordon for several years now and he has always been friendly and efficient.
Excellent doctor. His office was busy but they saw me right away. He was compassionate and had a great bedside manner. Had been to see another physician and was misdiagnosed. Dr. Gordon made me feel comfortable and fixed my knee. I would higly reccommend him!!!!!!
Can't say enough about Dr. Gordon - he's a pleasure to deal with. He is warm and to the point. He makes one feel that one's diagnosis/remedy is his most important concern. Dr. Gordon is terrific; I trust his analysis completely.
Dr. Gordon is personable, efficient and gives one an exact picture of what is happening and how he intends to deal with the issue. Would recommend him to all: a dedicated professional.
Dr Gordon was pleasant and knowledgeable. My time with him was extremely quick.
Fast visit like always..... less than 5 minutes waiting
This was my first visit but he seemed caring and ready to address all of my issues and get the appropriate diagnostic tests. Bedside manor was gentile and kind.
My visit went very well. Turns out my knees are in good hands with Dr. Gordon. I would trust him with any of my joints or bones. He's great!! Knows what he's doing. You can tell his quiet confidence is because he's so competent. Recommended!!!
Personable and very friendly. He had an idea what is causing the pain and his office was able to get my MRI approved right away
Fast visit.... To the point
This was by far the worst office visit I've ever had. Dr. Gordon was dismissive and never even looked at my knee or foot. He didn't explain anything and kept trying to leave the room while I had questions. I literally was in the waiting room after crying because he didn't answer my questions or address my issues. I would never go back to him!
Excellent Doctor, would happily see him again if needed.
Very professional; answered all of my questions.
He and his staff were professional and up me at ease right away! I would recommend his services highly!
I arrived 40 minutes early. Even so, I was processed immediately, interviewed, x-rayed, examined by the doctor, and scheduled for surgery before the time of my scheduled appointment. I could not be more pleased.
Dr. Gordon is wonderful. Clear in his explanation and very caring!
Todays visit was quick and painless yet, very informative.
I was actually taken into he exam room about 5 minutes early then my scheduled appointment!
Staff was very friendly and courteous. Doctor was empathetic and professional.
Didn't fully do over test results Ident 4 minutes with me
It was fast and went well
I found Dr. Gordon after I suffered a terrible fall down a flight of stairs at my job. I needed surgery on my knee and then rotator cuff surgery. Dr. Gordon assessed my needs immediately and took action right away. He completed the knee surgery first and I just had the surgery on my shoulder. He is the best surgeon ever. He is professional and he is confident. His presentation made me know that I was getting the very best care. He helped me get through a tough time in my life. I am so grateful that I chose him as my surgeon because he is top notch. I would recommend him to anyone who needs the services of a really great surgeon!
Dr Gordon was great!! I injured my knee and was able to get into him right away. His office staff was very good. I had a late afternoon appointment and was taken right on time. I was very impressed with his knowledge and he made me feel comfortable. I will highly recommend him to all my friends if they have any injuries!!!
He knew my file, asked questions, checked ROM,and renewed my prescription. Very professional, but maybe a little too quick too my taste.
I recieved a cortisone shot in the shoulder from him. I then got a cortisone flare the next day and it was very painful. Called their office, he was out and the PA basically told me he didn't know what i was talking about, never heard of a cortisone flare and was pretty much useless.
Very helpful and professional. I'd return with any applicable issues.
Dr. Gordon and staff were efficient, professional and pleasant. He answered my questions with clear, concise answers and suggested multiple treatment options. I went first thing in the morning to avoid delays. I must say, by the time I left the waiting room was full. I would recommend him to others. I also recommend downloading and completing the medical forms in advance. It will save you time and help keep the schedule moving.
Excellent staff. Excellent doctor.
They are improve a little bet. Wish is better than the last visit.
Dr.Gordon was very nice and knowledgeable. Front desk staff was helpful and sweet. Great experience overall. Highly recommended.
Well I will said the office is well run, and he is fine. I will hate to say this, but sadly he looks bored and not enthusiastic about his job. Maybe because doctors in general are overwhelmed with too many patients? He doesn't spend much time with patients. The most I have been with him in his office is about 15 minutes.
Great experience. Accepts walk in appointment's which is very rare for a specialist. Dr. Gordon and his staff were very helpful. Correct diagnosis. I was in and out rather quickly - which is great as a working professional. Would definitely recommend!
I waited for more than one hour then saw the for less than a minute, he disappeared On me! No time to explain anything or to ask a question! That was awfull.
No nonsense, right to the point. For busy professionals, this is your orthopedic doctor. I've had multiple procedures with Dr. Gordon & am very satisfied
Hard to tell. His examination is brusk and way too fast. He did not even touch my problem areas and simply made recommendations based on an x-ray, and then MRI. But I did think they were the correct recommendations.
He is a very nice doctor but once again, as with all doctor offices, the front desk tries to shove in as many patients as possible so the doctor does not really have enough time to really sit down and speak with you. I waited one hour in the waiting room, then had to wait even more after being put in one of the examination rooms. THe doctor came in, looked at the MRI results then spoke to me for about 3 minutes, then left. I don't blame the doctors for this; I blame the front desk appointment makers...
i didnt feel like he was entirely invested in my well being. I was just another chart - and the diagnosis matched that lack of interest.
They took xRays. He didn't Ben look at them. I have lower back issues and he barely asked me abt my lifestyle or how I injured it. He seemed disinterested with my problems honestly.
Dr. Gordon is very warm, efficient and very clear about the diagnosis. He doesn't waste your time. He really cares about his patients. I have been to him before and he will be my 'go-to' Doctor for any orthopedic issues. His staff is wonderful.
great as always
Dr. Gordon does not sit and talk to you about your condition. It's in and out with him. He is always rushing. I have to talk fast.
Dr. Gordon was clearly not interested in what I had to say. He interrupted me in the middle of my narrative, and seemed interested only in moving my case forward as quickly as possible. The physical examination could not have taken more than about 5 seconds. I do not feel I was treated with respect.
No problem at all
great visit
He didn't seem much interested by my problem. He stayed with me for 2-3 min and then left without saying goodbye. Wouldn't go back.
It's pleasant!
Was his last appointment of the day and he spent less than 5 minutes with me before running out of the office. The nurses, however, were delightful.
He was very assertive on my diagnose and started to treat my condition before getting the results. Which I appreciated. He's not a big talker. I spent more time in the waiting area than the time I spent with him. But I still liked him. These days is probably worse they don't have much time and too many patients.
I've been blessed to have Dr. Gordon as my orthopedic doctor for well over 10 years now and I've found him to be most trust worthy and honest. He has always made me feel comfortable with his decisions.
Quick follow up appointment. My previous appt I waited over 30 minutes so I'd advise against going during lunchtime.
It was a pleasure to be at this office and the attention of all the staff was great.
easy visit. to the point
Went well and gave me the answers i went to get
a little too long of a wait for a quick visit, and you have to migrate to another floor in the building to get X-rays. It was definitely over booked. If you schedule appts around a tight crunch it might not be the best office for you, but he was very friendly and treated me fine, ill be going back for a check up soon
very good. he was very efficient and straightforward which i appreciate
Nice man. Prepared and no nonsense.
Dr Gordon definitely knows his stuff, but you'll probably only see him for a few minutes. He's very busy, and you'll probably feel ignored in the office.
Dr. Gordon no doubt knows his business. However, you can end up feeling a bit like a part in a production line over there. Multiple patients checking in with the same appointment time, his army of assistants do the "bedside" bit and he gives you a once over before moving on to the next room.
Dr. Gordon isn't a bad doctor. He's not the most personable guy and seems anxious to get you out of there, but he knows his stuff. His staff is another story. They've shown themselves to be completely inept and act as if they're doing you a favor with every part of the process THATS REQUIRED OF THEM. I wasn't even planning to leave a review until I got to an appointment with a doctor he referred me to and his office never sent over my MRI information I was told they were going to do. It cost me half an hour and it's too easy a process to screw up.
been seeing him for over 10 years . Great person ,Great Doctor
Dr. Gordon has been treating me for a work related injury for the past 3 years, including two surgeries and I have been totally satisfied with his services.
As always a visit at Dr.Gordon's office is always pleasant. All the staff member's are courteous and try to give you as much information as possible regarding your situation.
He rushed through the consultation and did not give me a chance to elaborate on my injury or ask questions. An assembly line type of visit. Definitely not going back.
He was very kind and my visit went well.
I highly recommend Dr. Gordon as he is professional and knows his stuff. He already performed surgery on my right knee and the results have been successful. The only issue, which had nothing to do with the doctor or his office was that it took a ridiculously long time to have Xrays taken from the floor above them. My appointment which should have taken a half hour turned into two hours.
Terrific, no nonsense. Nobody better!
He is very straightforward and clear. He answered all my questions. I walked out of his office with a clear understanding of my condition and what needed to be done.
I am happy with the visit to Dr. Gordon's office. The staff are very professional and Dr Gordon gave a quick and accurate assessment of my condition.
He was competent and personable and answered all my questions
Just what I was looking for - short, sweet, to the point, with no BS. I showed up late for my appointment due to traffic, but they were very nice about it. They admitted me about 15 min later, gave me x-rays immediately and I saw the doc 5 min after that. Dr. Gordon was to the point, answered all my questions and was very helpful. Perfect in and out visit.
Brief and Informative. Very professional and caring.
Seemed very nice a knowledgeable. Knew what was wrong in the 1st few minutes of seeing me.
I have seen Dr Gordon three times now and have been pleased with all my appts. I never had to wait more than 30 mins and even had one occassion where I didn't even sit down before being called in. I had both back and shoulder pains that needed to be assessed and found that all my questions and concerns were addressed before I left his office.
Dr. Gordon has already performed surgery on one leg a few years back. I was so pleased that I returned for other issues on my other leg.
He gets the job done, but he won't let you tell him your symptoms before he cuts you off to offer a diagnosis. Very frustrating.
Dr Gordon was very personable and professional. The office staff were warm with their reetings and interctions.
His staff was super fast - got in, got x-rayed, got seen, got out. The doctor himself was maybe a little TOO fast - he came in, touched my elbow, told me what it was, and left before I had a chance to say a word. All in all, not a bad experience at all if you're looking for a quick diagnosis.
Came in, tech/asst, etc sees me first and sends me for x-rays. Doc sees me for less then two minutes and cuts me off several times when I am trying to explain my concerns and explain my condition. In fact mocked my questions. When I ask him why I have a certain pain, he tells me that's not supposed to happen. What a brilliant observation! He needs to learn how to LISTEN to his patients, and not be so rushed.
He's great. I really liked him, but after a relatively long wait I felt like he was a bit rushed, making me feel rushed and he was in and out in minutes. GREAT doc though!
1st time visit to Dr Gordon went well despite the fact of his negative reviews. I would go back again to see him if pain does not go away.
I believe he was professional and had an imeadiate understanding of the problem. Though I will require an MRI and probably other visits with him my first impression was satisfactory.
Dr. Gordon and his staff were very professional. I highly recommend Dr. Gordon to other patients.
the appointment lasted literally 2 minutes - and after saying "you're fine" he left the room, without even saying that's all, good bye, have a good day or anything...
The office registration process was inefficient. The paperwork could have been emailed to me so I could complete it in advance. Most of the first hour after the appointment time was waiting. (And this after my appointment time had been moved forward 3 hours from the original time.) On the plus side everyone in the office was friendly and pleasant.
I liked the way he chose a conservative method of treatment.
Honest truth it was really in and out. Happened so fast, I don't know what happened.
Very personable and an attentive listener. Highly recommend.
Saw him 3 times for a wrist injury. He never spent more than a few min with me and never once examined my wrist. He didnt know I had lost mobility and I needed to have started physical therapy much earlier.
Very nice and efficient staff
Horrible, I think if he spend more than 45 seconds with me it was too much.
I thought that he made snap decisions without really listening to my concerns, and ordered expensive tests without spending time to thoroughly diagnose my issue.
Great caring service!!!
My Doctor is eccellente. I Will recommmend him to anybody that i know. Michael st fleur...
Pleasant as always.
this man is the best I would recommend him to anybody
I was a little disappointed. He seemed in a rush to get me out of there. He gave me a couple perscriptions, and I can't read his handwriting, and I'm not sure what to do with one of them because I don't think you get it handled through a regular pharmacy. I was hoping for more of an informational visit on how on my condition, but didn't receive much.
I didn't see Dr.Gordon until the end, but his staff was very pleasant to deal with. Dr.Gordon seems to be an easy going guy and I will definitely go back!
He really didn't spend that much time with me to give an honest opinion
If you can get through the less than pleasant receptionists he's worth it.
It was a very pleasant experience

opportunities in the community that they and the club can address.
Rotary eClub One is truly an international Rotary Club. Since our members are scattered around the world we will use a different approach to helping family members understand what Rotary is and what we do.
Of course, many of our family members already have some idea of what Rotary is and what we do simply by seeing us in action and/or hearing us discuss from time to time our experiences. Some of us find opportunities to involve family members in projects or take them to a Rotary meeting.
When my husband and I travel, we try to attend at least one Rotary meeting in the area we are visiting. We have many fond memories of the warm welcome we received wherever we have visited.
Our daughter was a Rotary Youth Exchange student. Her year abroad exposed her to Rotary in a deep way. Even though it has been 14 years since her exchange she still talks about how it changed her life and her world perspective.
As many of us know, we cannot be truly active in Rotary without the support of our closest family member, our spouse. Involving our spouse in our activities brings with us a richer perspective and an opportunity to create a bond for our spouse to an organization that is so important to us. Involving our family, especially our young ones, will help spread the spirit of Rotary for generations to come.
Yours in Rotary Service,
Tracy Adams

Verdi (SP-979)—a wooden motorboat built in 1909 at Morris Heights, N.Y., by the Charles L. Seabury Co. and the Gas Engine and Power Co.—was acquired by the Navy from Walter J. Green, of Utica, N.Y., on 30 June 1917. Homeported during her civilian service at Clayton, N.Y., on the St. Lawrence River, Verdi was assigned section patrol duties with the 9th Naval District. She served in the Great Lakes through the armistice of 11 November 1918, which ended World War I, and was returned to her owner on 4 December 1918.

Shed project on Corn Neck Road debated
Attorneys for two sets of neighbors vigorously staked out their positions at a Zoning Board hearing Wednesday evening, debating over whether two extra feet of building height should be allowed for a shed rebuild on property owned by Battyville LLC, (plat 4, lot 32, unit 3), off Corn Neck Road.
At the close of that hearing, members of the board engaged in a discussion but did not come to an agreement over whether or not to approve the variance for the additional height.
Attorney William Landry, representing Battyville property owner Bob McDevitt, argued that the building would either have two roof heights or need a flat roof at an 11-foot 6-inch height if the owner is not granted the variance.
The shed first came to the attention of the zoning board in January, when neighbors Edith Blane and Chris Blane noticed it was not being rebuilt on the site of the demolished shed. Building Official Marc Tillson had issued a permit as a new shed based on information he said was given to him by the owner. He had not realized it was a rebuild, however, and when he did, he issued a stop work order.
At its January meeting, the zoning board decided the shed was an accessory structure, which is a conforming use, but the height was non-conforming. The original shed had a flat and lower roof, and the owner would therefore need a variance to build it.
Defending the roof height on Wednesday, McDermitt's builder Geoffrey Hall was questioned by both attorneys. He testified the shed needed the extra height to allow proper egress from the window and door, and it would improve the aesthetics. If the shed was kept to the lower height as the zoning ordinance requires, the roof would have to be flat or slightly pitched. "The owner wants it to look nice, not like a chicken coop," Hall said.
The Blanes, represented by Attorney Joseph Priestley, contended there is no hardship that would compel the increased roof height. Hardship is the underlying rationale governing the granting of variances. The only hardship, Priestley maintained, was self-imposed. "What is hardship?" he asked. "Mr. McDermitt can rebuild the shed as is."
Underlying the Blanes' opposition to the proposed height of the building was the possibility that it might eventually be used as housing, even though the accessory use would forbid residential use. Battyville LLC has only one of three condominium units on the 86,500-square foot lot, each with one dwelling.
After the hearing was closed, Chair Elizabeth Connor offered to write a motion in favor of the variance to be voted on at the May meeting. "Windows and doors are allowed in accessory buildings," she said. Member Kate Butcher spoke in favor also, saying that the design "will improve the property."
Board member David Morrison opposed granting a variance. "I don't believe we are arguing about two feet, but it is still a non conforming use, an expansion dimensionally. They could achieve the height by a step-down, but already poured the foundation. It is self-imposed," he said. He offered to write a motion against granting the variance.

Former police push for legalizationBy Peter Hirschfeld
Vermont Press Bureau | October 20,2013MONTPELIER Backers of a push to legalize marijuana in Vermont are getting help from an unlikely source: retired police officers who spent their careers enforcing cannabis laws.
Just months into Vermonts new policy of decriminalization, several high-profile politicians are already talking about moving to outright legalization. Gov. Peter Shumlin last month set the table for legislative action in the next few years by indicating for the first time publicly his support for a tax-and-regulate model.
At an event in the Statehouse next month, elected officials in favor of legalization will look to an organization made up of retired law enforcement officers to help make the case.
I think the discussion has to continue to occur while were setting the table for the next couple years, and this is a great group to work with because its frontline law enforcement officers talking about the reality of prohibition policies, said Sen. David Zuckerman, a Democrat/Progressive from Chittenden County.
Peter Christ, a co-founder of the national group Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, worked for 20 years as a policeman in the suburbs of Buffalo, N.Y. He said hes never made an argument in favor of marijuana, only against prohibition.
We didnt legalize alcohol in 1933 because it had medical uses and studies said it was OK, and in fact no one in the repeal movement was defending alcohol, Christ says. All people said was we may always have to have alcohol in our society, but we dont always have to have Al Capone and drive-by shootings, so they took that out of the equation.
Christ says that chapter in U.S. history offers a useful starting point for the legalization debate about to begin in Vermont.
We still have an alcohol problem in this country, he says. But we dont have gangs and thugs running the marketplace.
Members of LEAP will be on hand for a roundtable discussion in Room 11 of the Statehouse on Nov. 12, where legislators and former police will discuss the merits of legalization. No former law-enforcement officers from Vermont are scheduled to attend.
If members of LEAP sound like unlikely voices to lead the charge for legalization in Vermont, so perhaps is the person moderating the event. As Senate minority leader, Sen. Joe Benning is a leader of the Vermont GOP. But while Republicans havent conventionally fallen in line behind drug reform laws, Benning said legalization isnt at all at odds with a conservative platform.
I am interested in moving the Republican Party especially in a new direction, and my concern is that taxpayers are spending money, and lots of money at that, on a battle that has not brought us success, Benning says.
Benning said legalization isnt about surrendering in the war on drugs, but about finding a more successful strategy to wage the battle against substance abuse.
This conversation were having is about trying to address this countrys drug problem in a different way than what we have been doing for the past 60 years or so, says Benning, a longtime criminal defense lawyer. I want to get out of the business of prosecuting and get into the business of keeping people away from drugs.
During his years in the Vermont House, Zuckerman helped build momentum for what was a decade-long push for decriminalization. Now a member of the Senate, he doesnt think the wait will be so long for legalization, and that vote will come in 2015 or 2016.
Organizations like LEAP, he says, will help build the political will needed to bring reluctant lawmakers on board.
Christ was in Vermont for a speaking tour in June, and says messages delivered by former law enforcement officers resonate with a swath of the public that might not otherwise be so receptive to the concept of legalization.
I spoke with four Rotary clubs and two Kiwanis organizations, and there were 149 people at those six events, Christ said of his trip to Vermont. And out of those 149 people, 71 of them signed up with LEAP at the end of the presentation.
Christ said his dislike of drugs generally wins him credibility with the audience.
Ive buried more kids in the suburbs of Buffalo due to alcohol more than any other drug. So what we should do is obvious we should ban it, right? Christ says. Well, no, because we know if we ban it we create an enormous underground economy that creates its own set of problems. And people are figuring out that the same logic applies to other drugs.MORE IN This Just InBURLINGTON - The Auxiliary Bishop of Indianapolis has been appointed the 10th Bishop of...

Hi everyone,
have been using my premier 2ltr wet stone grinder but have run into a potential disaster.
I have only used it 3 times so far and its been brilliant, however on my last run on it some sickly looking dark green/black liquid was coming out from the axle and wheels and running into the delicious chocolate!
Firstly I am unsure what it is, it kind of looks like car grease which is not good.
2nd is it food safe? can I go ahead and taste the chocolate I made or should I condemn the entire batch?
3rd - is this normal? has anyone else come across this problem before?
I have attached some photos to give you a better idea of what I am up against. I have also contacted the company I purchased the machine from and await their response.
any help much appreciated

Did you "wash" your machine by running oil and sugar through it for a few hours before making chocolate (discard the resulting oil & sugar mixture)? That helps clean off the stone dust/grit that comes with delivery.
Also, between each batch, are you removing the wheels and cleaning the insides of them (say with a cotton bud)?
Hi Gap,
Thanks for the reply. I didn't run oil and sugar through it when I got it, I washed everything, but didn't even occur to me to run oil and sugar through it. Does it have to be much of each to 'clean' it? and I will give that a go. I have cleaned off all the horrible black gunge stuff now, and hopefully that was the last of it.
I have been cleaning the wheels by dismantling it, but left the 'grease' stuff on the axles as I assumed that must be there for a reason and would be properly sealed....but I was wrong. I am still waiting to hear back from the company who told me they were going to take one apart to look at it. also got some samples to send to environmental health just in case.
thanks for the advice
I ran a neutral vegetable oil and white sugar 50/50 when I first got the machine. I think total weight was about 600g. Then discarded the sugar/oil and washed down the grinder. I don't think there's a perfect way of doing it but that's what I did. If you've already run chocolate through it, you've probably done enough "cleaning" and the stone dust should be out by now.
That does sound like it might be what it is, as it seems to be liquid when warmed and goes hard when cooled. I heard back from the company who have apparently sent out a brand new machine which Is not what I was expecting but great! only wanted to know if they had seen it before. I will use your advice on the new machine and clean it first with oil and sugar, and clean inside the wheels thoroughly too after every batch.
Thanks for the help.

Tuesday, June 18: Wake Owl with Blessed Feathers @ The Pabst Theatre, 7 p.m.
For fans of rustic, melodic folk rock, it's hard to imagine a pairing better than Vancouver's Wake Owl and Appleton's Blessed Feathers. The avian-minded bands sound strikingly similar, with songs that evoke forests and lakes and a time of year when breath is visible. And, for what it's worth, Colyn Cameron of Wake Owl could be Donivan Berube's fedora-wearing, guitar-strumming twin. (144 E. Wells St., pabsttheater.org)
Also: Brett Newski with John Davy @ Bremen Café, 9 p.m. (901 E. Clarke St., bremencafe.com)
And: La URSS @ Quarter's Rock 'N Roll Palace, 9 p.m. (900 E. Center St.)
Wednesday, June 19: River Rhythms: De La Buena @ Pere Marquette Park, 6:30 p.m.
Summerfest may be the crown jewel of Milwaukee summers, but the hidden gems are its free outdoor concerts, held weekly and featuring diverse, all-local talent. If you like Jazz In The Park and Chill On The Hill, you'll love River Rhythms, which happens Wednesdays at Pere Marquette Park in Westown. This week features the ecstatic Latin stylings of De La Buena, known to induce compulsive salsa dancing in individuals whose knowledge of the style doesn't go beyond Tostitos.
Also: Leon Russell @ The Pabst, 7 p.m. (144 E. Wells St., pabsttheater.org)
And: Dreamland Faces @ Circle-A Café, 8 p.m. (901 E. Clarke St., bremencafe.com)
Thursday, June 20: Old 97's with Trapper Schoepp and the Shades @ Turner Hall Ballroom, 7 p.m.
In another great local/national pairing by the Pabst, locals Trapper Schoepp and the Shades will support their alt-country forefathers Old 97's at Turner Hall. Of course, that's not to say that Schoepp and the Shades are strictly local – they've been making waves all over the country since signing to SideOneDummy and touring with The Wallflowers. It will be the band's first local show in a while. (1032 N. 4th St., pabsttheater.org)
Also: Ladysmith Black Mambazo @ The Pabst, 6:30 p.m. (144 E. Wells St., pabsttheater.org)
And: Maps & Atlases with Everest and Mutts @ Mad Planet, 9 p.m. (533 E. Center St, mad-planet.net)
Friday, June 21: Portgual. The Man with Guards @ The Pabst, 7 p.m.
Tireless Portland rockers Portgual. The Man have quietly released seven good albums since 2006, and even though they jumped to the majors in 2010 via Atlantic, a big break still eludes them. That might change with Evil Friends, thanks to production by Danger Mouse and a calculated attempt at a more accessible sound. The indie rock vets will be joined by buzzed-about newbies Guards. (144 E. Wells St., pabsttheater.org)
Also: Logic & Raze with The Hollowz, The NightKrawlers and Kiings @ Cactus Club, 9:30 p.m. (2496 S. Wentworth Ave., cactusclub.dostuff.info)
And: Okka Fest @ Sugar Maple, 9 p.m. (441 E. Lincoln Ave., mysugarmaple.com)
Saturday, June 22: Summer Soulstice Music Festival @ North Ave. and Murray Ave., 12 p.m.
This year's East Side festival boasts a local music lineup that rivals last weekend's Locust Street Days. Three stages on North and Murray Avenues feature some of Milwaukee's finest, including Klassik, Delta Routine, Hayward Williams and De La Buena. The whole lineup is stacked, but we're most excited for the return of three groups we haven't heard from in a while: Animals In Human Attire, Juniper Tar and Canopies.
Also: Zebras with Stinking Lizaveta and Honey Get The Gun @ Cactus Club, 10 p.m. (2496 S. Wentworth Ave., cactusclub.dostuff.info)
And: The Delphines with Heartthrob and Sat. Nite Duets @ Riverwest Public House, 9 p.m. (815 E. Locust St., riverwestpublichouse.wordpress.com)
Sunday, June 23: Nato Coles with No Bueno! and Sex Forecast @ Bremen Café, 7 p.m.
Prolific Twin Cities songwriter Nato Coles is originally from Brooklyn, but his rock 'n' roll portraits of Midwestern life (e.g., the romping "I-94") suggest that he's adjusted to the Heartland just fine, absorbing Springsteen, Mellencamp and CCR along the way for a sound that feels authentic and completely natural. He'll be joined by locals No Bueno! And Sex Forecast for a free show that may be one of the week's best. (901 E. Clarke St., bremencafe.com)
Also: Okka Fest @ Sugar Maple, 3 p.m. (441 E. Lincoln Ave., mysugarmaple.com)

Canada for peace in Lebanon
Mister Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada Ottawa, Canada. Sir, You supported the attack of Israel against Lebanon. However, this position is far from reflecting the opinion of the majority of Canadian citizens. WE, citizens of the most pacifist country in the world: CANADA, people of various origins and various beliefs, are requesting your intervention as the representative of the population of a free country which believes in equality and justice. The Lebanese people paid of their blood during 15 years for war for the Israeli-Arab conflict. After 16 years of relative peace, is it fair to once again take Lebanon as a scapegoat Is it right that it is taken hostage, his people destroyed and exterminated for a cause which is not his The total blockade that the army of Israel currently exerts on Lebanon, the bombardment of the ports and of the Beirut

From 1965 to the mid-1970s the famous and the fashionable wore Ossie Clark. Mick and Bianca Jagger commissioned clothes from him. Twiggy, Jean Shrimpton and Penelope Tree modelled his designs for top photographers David Bailey, Norman Parkinson and Helmut Newton.
While celebrities were frequent customers, ordinary Londoners also coveted Clark's designs. Many recall the wonderful feeling of wearing an Ossie Clark outfit. One said recently,'When I bought my Ossie Clark dress it was quite expensive . . . but it was so beautiful, so feminine and made me feel special.'
Mr and Mrs Clark and Percy, David Hockney, 1970-1 Acrylic on Canvas
A portrait of Ossie Clark and Celia Birtwell by David Hockney. As Ossie Clark's wife, textile designer and muse, Celia often wore their designs. In this painting she wears a dress softly shaped to flatter the figure. Red bands of fabric wind around the arms in a technically complex pattern.

Fashion sketch 1973
Mick Jagger became a client of Ossie Clark's in the late 1960s. Clark then made some of Jagger's stage costumes, like this pythonskin jumpsuit designed for the Rolling Stones' 1973 tour. It was intended to unzip onstage. Mick Jagger's wife Bianca, who could afford the most extravagant designs, also became an important client.
Pen and ink on paper
Wedding dress 1971
Ossie Clark said of wedding dresses,'The most vital part is the back'. Here the back features dramatic fan pleating falling from a raised waistline. Clark designed the dress for Diane Radley, daughter of Alfred Radley who owned the Ossie Clark label from 1968. The wedding took place in a synagogue, so the dress had to be traditional with long sleeves and a high neck.

Coat 1969
Ossie Clark designed this coat for Twiggy's 1969 New York tour. Made from snakeskin lined with fox fur, the coat encapsulated the glamour and excess of celebrity life. The photograph shows Twiggy wearing the coat on a trip to Paris in the same year.

Ensemble 1969
The photograph shows Penelope Tree, fashion model and Clark client. David Bailey was the photographer. Many top photographers worked for Vogue and their regular coverage of Ossie Clark's work helped build his reputation. It also brought him to the attention of an even wider audience.
