Investigation into treatment provided by Dr Simon Gordon, Gynaecologist
Gordon Legal has established a dedicated, multi-practice investigation team to examine the gynaecological surgeries and treatment of endometriosis and pelvic pain performed by Dr Simon Gordon at Epworth Healthcare and his private Melbourne clinic.
We have heard deeply distressing accounts from patients describing unnecessary or inappropriate procedures and significant resulting harm, including the loss of reproductive organs, complications and increased pain after surgery and impacts on fertility. Drawing on our combined experience in medical negligence, group proceedings and regulatory law, we are conducting a comprehensive investigation into Dr Gordon’s conduct and the legal options that may be available to affected women.
Who is eligible?
If you are a former patient of Dr Gordon and have concerns about your treatment – particularly in light of the recent ABC Four Corners investigation – we urge you to contact us for a confidential, no-cost and obligation-free first appointment for advice, support and guidance.
What clinics are being investigated?
- Epworth HealthCare (Richmond or other Epworth facilities), and
- Dr. Gordon’s private clinic in East Melbourne, Endo Health.
