About Ora K. Gordon

Dr. Gordon is the medical director of the Providence Center for Clinical Genetics and Genomics, and the Department of Integrative Medicine at the Roy and Patricia Disney Family Cancer Center. She is one of few medical geneticists in the Los Angeles area. Before joining Providence, Dr. Gordon spent 13 years at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center as director of the GenRISK Adult Genetics Program, co-director of the Gilda Radner Hereditary Cancer Program and training director for the UCLA Medical Genetics Residency Program. A nationally recognized expert in hereditary cancer, Dr. Gordon is co-author of an award-winning book on understanding and managing breast and ovarian cancer risk, “Positive Results: Making the Best Decisions When You’re at High Risk for Breast or Ovarian Cancer.” Dr. Gordon’s primary research interests involve the prevention of breast cancer. She has been involved in numerous clinical trials for cancer prevention. Dr. Gordon is board-certified in both internal medicine and medical genetics, and she serves as an associate professor of medicine at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine. Passionate about a holistic approach to health and disease prevention, Dr. Gordon has also completed a fellowship in integrative medicine through the University of Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine.
