Patient Reviews
Mar 15, 2023
My best friend was transferred from Little Company of Mary to Christ Advocate. Thank God! Due to a terrible mistake, her esophagus was nicked inside because of intubation. When she was transferred to Christ and the care of Dr Paul Gordon, her life was on the line. She was operated on immediately and admitted to intensive care. She had to remain sedated for three days and then transferred to step down intensive care. She had a perforation in her esophagus that left her with an infection and fungal invasion. She could not eat anything orally for four weeks and then eventually graduated to ice chips. Dr Gordon monitored her constantly so that she could eventually have small amounts of liquid. He made sure that she was very well cared for….he trains his staff well and leads by example. We weren’t sure he ever went home as he visited late and on weekends..he cares deeply about his patients and is an incredible blessing to staff and patients. She has now returned to life!
