Gayle DeBay

Dealing effectively with the pain that often accompanies a serious illness can be as important (if not more so) as finding the right treatment for the illness. My wife and I learned this vital lesson over the past year as we sought cures for her metastasized breast cancer, as well as medicinal remedies to help her deal with the at times debilitating pain. Fortunately, in addition to excellent doctors, we were being advised by Pharmacist Gayle DeBay.

It is difficult for me to overstate just how important was Gayle's assistance during this increasingly difficult (and painful) time. Gayle's intimate knowledge of the best-available medications (and, most importantly, their potential side effects) was invaluable to us as we sought to wade our way through the myriad of curative, preventative, and pain-killing offerings available to us. Her breadth and depth of knowledge, her sincere compassion, and her professional (and personal) experiences she shared with us simply could not be duplicated. Without her guidance, an already complicated and frightening experience would certainly have taken a significantly greater toll on my wife - both physically and emotionally.

Gayle DeBay was a godsend to us at a most critical time in our lives. Without her awareness and support we would not have been able to deal with my wife's illness nearly as effectively as we did. Gayle's skills and knowledge made a potentially devastating time in our lives almost palatable. We cannot thank her enough.

It was a relief to meet Gayle and to work with her during my Mom's illness. She helped my Mom, a retired nurse, and our family to understand the potential for drug interactions and in one instance, a combination of medications that could have been lethal. Gayle's confidence and depth of experience as a pharmacist provided great comfort during a very difficult time. Thank you, Gayle!
