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.

Worse than pulling teeth
First, I think Dr. Gordon is great. However, his staff and system are unbelievably unreliable and lie continuously about simple details of getting things straight. It took over a month to get the first prescription right then days upon days to get subsequent prescriptions right and multiple visits. (still not done) They tell me " we sent it in to your pharmacy" It never shows. I have no faith at all in anything they say and feel lucky to ever get one right. Call backs are almost non-existent and after 5 - 10 attempts with lie after lie about getting things done, IT NEVER HAPPENS without unbelievable efforts on my part and none on theirs. Dr. Gordon, your people make you look bad indeed and I will reluctantly have to seek better professional doctoring elsewhere. You are a great guy and I enjoy our visits, but doing business is too hard.

Fantastic. He has been my doctor for decades. I recommended him to my entire extended family. He is careful, caring, thoughtful, and takes the time to listen to you. I could not ask for a better physician. I would give him more stars if I could.

I am a retired Navy pilot and currently employed with a major airline. My wife and I moved to Fayetteville less than a year ago. A fellow employee (pilot) who was born and raised in Fayetteville highly recommended Dr. Al Gordon. This review is my assessment of my fellow employee’s recommendation. Dr. Gordon is one of the best Private Care Physicians I’ve encountered. He is professional, personable and takes time to understand the situation before him before he acts. I feel very fortunate to have him as my health care provider. I’d also like to extend kudos to the office staff. They are very friendly, efficient and pleasurable to converse with.

Listens, friendly, easy to talk to, and shows concerns with whatever ails you. Fast on referrals to other specialists, if need be. Asset to the area.

Dr. Gordon takes to time to get to know you. He is one of the best family practice doctors I have seen in my 66 years of life. He is a good listener and will prescribe generics whenever possible to save you money.

Saw Gordon when my primary had no openings; had been to the ER, ENT doc,my doc and nurse due to weeks of excruciating headaches. He helped me with pain meds and referred me to a nuerologist. He was a breath of fresh air,down to earth,easy to talk to, explains things clearly. I was 100% at ease. He made me feel he genuinely cared, gave my 5 year old a fist bump and let him listen to his heart with his stethoscope, told me what a well behaved young man I had. Every doctor should have his demeanor.

I just moved to the area and met with the doctor over a month ago and was supposed to get a referral for a neurologist. I still don't have a referral. My medicine runs out in 10 days. I left messages in MYMANA web portal with no response. I left voice messages but received no response and no action. I tried calling neurologists directly but they won't see me without a referral.

While having been a patient with Dr Gordon for many years, I really like him - however, the office/practice is ridiculous to deal with. Staff is unfriendly, and it is impossible to be able to communicate directly with him unless you schedule and pay for an appointment just to ask him a question.

He is respectful of parents making decision for their children and doesn't push an agenda like so many pediatric doctors do. Dr. Gordon is excellent with children. My son (age 8) describes him as fun. Office staff is overall okay. HIs nurse, Gail, is very nice and competent.
