Robert was kind, caring and empathetic. He was patient and showed a genuine interest in wanting to understand and help. I felt like he wasn’t pressured for time and made me feel relaxed.
Always a pleasure and an extremely valuable service provided.
Any time that there was a slightly ambiguous statement Dr. Gordon would elaborate whenever asked. He felt very approachable and I never felt like he'd judge anything I did or said. He seems very nice.
Sympathetic and good listener - not sure enough probing questions maybe
Sorry I thought I’d just answered this question… A helpful telephone appointment to discuss meds and suggest strategies for trialling alternatives.
It was great. He was easy to talk to and I felt no judgement whatsoever. It was excellent that he was willing to continue the session such that we could have a natural end point to the session.
Dr. Gordon made me feel immediately at ease for my assessment. His bed side manner was faultless, and he really took the time to explain things to me in a patient focused and unpatronising manner. I felt very well listen to, and he was clearly very mindful and respectful of my experience throughout the assessment. I would definitely recommend Dr. Gordon and his wider service/team.
Very kind and understanding. Very thoughtful and great at getting me towards the help I need.
Dr Gordon was fantastic and would recommend him to anyone experiencing mental health problems He has been better than anyone I have dealt with before and truly is an expert in his field Felt so much relief after speaking with him and has helped me on the right pathway to get my health back to normal
