Surgical Mission History
Beginning 1981 Dr. Gordon led surgical missions or consulted on the feasibility of establishing wound care surgical facilities in poor or rural parts of the U.S., and for the following countries: Barbados, Mexico, Panama, Aruba, Fiji, Tanzania, Ghana, and Somaliland (Somalia).
As Chief Surgeon of the American Medical Team for Africa (AMTA) (1994) he led the 1st of many multispecialty surgical teams of doctors and surgical personnel from Grady Hospital, Atlanta to Muhimbili Medical Center in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The poorest countries are designated by the World Bank as “Low- income” countries and found primarily in Africa. Dr. Gordon has extensive experience performing reconstructive surgery in less-than-ideal surgical situations. In his own words: "These experiences were challenging because our teams usually worked in woefully inadequate facilities with very limited supplies. If we didn’t bring it, they aint got it."
After 40 + years of surgical practice, Dr Gordon knows which technologies are available, reliable, and best suited for the circumstances. Dr Gordon realizes that providing vital resources and infrastructure will facilitate retention of medical & surgical personnel in impoverished communities. "Healthcare personnel will stay or return after training to their home countries if they have professional resources and reasonable income which allow them to work with dignity and capacity, sharing their skills among family and country."
