About Elliott Gordon, MD

Elliott Gordon, M.D., M.Sc. is an Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at Weill Cornell Medical College and an Attending Pediatrician at New York Presbyterian/Komansky Children's Hospital and Weill Cornell Medical Center. He is board-certified by the American Board of Pediatrics in General Pediatrics and board-eligible in Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition.


After receiving his Honors Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and Health Sciences from York University (Toronto, Ontario, Canada), Dr. Gordon attended the University of Western Ontario (London, Ontario, Canada) where he was conferred a Master of Science in Child and Youth Health for his research in pediatric obesity. Dr. Gordon went on to earn his M.D. degree from St. George's University School of Medicine. He then completed his pediatrics residency training at Mercer University School of Medicine (Macon, Georgia), followed by his fellowship in pediatric gastroenterology, hepatology, and nutrition at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical College, where his research focused on understanding the mechanisms of iron deficiency anemia in quiescent pediatric Crohn's disease. This research was supported by Weill Cornell Medicine Department of Pediatrics Fellowship Small Research Grant and was recognized with the Weill Cornell Medicine Komansky Children's Hospital Fellows' Research Award for Basic & Translational Research


Dr. Gordon's clinical interests include treating children with a variety of gastrointestinal complaints including abdominal pain, feeding disorders, failure to thrive, poor weight gain or weight loss, inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease and eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders. Dr. Gordon's expertise focuses in the area of Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Very-Early Onset Inflammatory Bowel Disease (VEOIBD). Dr. Gordon works closely with a multidisciplinary team that includes dieticians, patient navigators, social workers, psychologists, research coordinators, as well and other pediatric subspecialists to ensure excellence in patient care and comprehensive treatment of complex gastrointestinal disorders.


Dr. Gordon engages in regional and national clinical and research initiatives to improve the care of children living with inflammatory bowel disease and other complex gastrointestinal illnesses through his work with the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition's Public Affairs and Advocacy Committee, the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation's National Scientific Advisory Committee (NSAC), and as the Associate Editor of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD Journal).


Dr. Gordon believes that the key to strong partnerships within the patient-family-physician triad lays in effective communication. He strives to understand his patient's needs, which starts with open lines of communication and a supportive and inviting environment. This allows for the building of trust and rapport, and the creation of long-lasting relationships with his patients.
