Dr. Gay is very caring and has helped me so much over these years. He addresses all issues, referring me to other specialist, meeting my needs! His concerns, for my quality of life, especially since I'm getting older, is so much appreciated! He and I go back many years and I could not find a better Rhematoligist anywhere else. He's wonderful!
