About Us
Our Story
Post-Operative Pathways was founded by Kiki Gordon, whose passion for healing comes from both personal experience and professional dedication. Carrying the BRCA gene herself and with two sisters who are breast cancer survivors, Kiki understands deeply the challenges patients face after surgery.
Through years of hands-on recovery work, she saw that too many people struggle, not because of their strength, but because of financial limitations or lack of local support. Post-Operative Pathways was created to change that.
Kiki's mission is simple: to ensure that no patient's healing depends on their income or circumstances.
Why Austin: Our roots are here! We proudly work alongside surgeons including Dr. Christine Fisher, Dr. Ned Snyder, and other top Austin providers. We partner with local surgeons and clinics to make recovery support timely, personal, and culturally responsive.
