Private Biological and Integrative Medicine Clinic in San Rafael, California

In-Person Care for Complex Chronic Illness

Located in San Rafael, California, Gordon Medical is a private physician-led clinic specializing in biological and integrative medicine. We provide comprehensive, in-person care for patients throughout Marin County, the San Francisco Bay Area, Silicon Valley, Sacramento, Napa Valley, Sonoma County, and across Northern California, as well as individuals who travel from around the world to seek our expertise.

As the West Coast’s leading clinic for Lyme disease, tick-borne illness, and environmentally acquired illness, our physicians look beyond individual symptoms to understand the complex interactions between infections, environmental exposures, immune function, inflammation, metabolism, hormones, and the nervous system that influence long-term health.

Nafysa Parpia, ND & Eric Gordon, MD

A Destination Clinic for Complex Chronic Illness

For more than two decades, Gordon Medical has cared for patients whose health challenges have not been fully explained by conventional medicine. Many arrive after years of seeing multiple specialists, collecting diagnoses, and trying treatments that have failed to restore their health.

Our physicians specialize in evaluating and treating conditions including:

  • Lyme disease and tick borne illness
  • Mold illness and mycotoxin exposure
  • Environmentally acquired illness
  • Long COVID
  • Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)
  • Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS)
  • Autoimmune conditions
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Chronic infections
  • Immune dysregulation

Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, we take a systems based approach that considers the many interconnected factors contributing to illness, allowing us to develop highly personalized treatment strategies for every patient.

Advanced Therapies and Personalized Treatment

If you have found a tick recently on your person, we have a few resources where you can have it tested:

  • https://igenex.com/tick-test/– click on “Tick Test Request Form”. There are 6 different tests on the form at $75 each.
  • tickreport.com – They will test a tick for what disease causing microbes the tick may be carrying, including the pathogens in Deer ticks that cause Lyme disease:
    • $60 – Basic (DNA for bacteria and parasites)
    • $100 – Standard (deer ticks)
    • $200 – Comprehensive (non deer tick species)

To remove the tick properly, follow this link. After removal, place the tick in a sealed baggie with a moist cotton ball and ship it to the test center.

We offer 1-hour acute tick bite appointments with Yvonne Sorenson. During this appointment she can learn about your bite or new, acute, lyme symptoms and recommend testing, treatment options and best timing for testing and treatment.

If, after testing and initial treatment, you find your case to be more complex, you would need a longer intake appointment to establish care with the practice as a full patient so the practitioner has a complete health history to inform your care going forward.
