I cannot recommend Gayle Frankel highly enough. From the moment she stepped in, she brought a level of calm, competence, and kindness that completely transformed my recovery experience.
Gayle is incredibly knowledgeable and intuitive as a nurse. Recovering from plastic surgery can be stressful, especially when your partner is loving but not medically trained. Having Gayle there removed an enormous amount of anxiety—for both of us. I never once felt like I had to manage or explain my own care. She kept my medications perfectly organized and administered on time, monitored me closely, and handled everything with quiet confidence.
Beyond the medical care, Gayle went above and beyond. She helped coordinate my post-op appointments, including drain removal, and made sure nothing fell through the cracks. Most importantly, I felt safe, seen, and never judged. She created an environment where I could truly rest, knowing she was alert, attentive, and ready whenever I needed my next medication or assistance.
Despite being in recovery, I felt completely at ease around her—so much so that during the moments I was awake enough to chat, it genuinely felt like a mini girls’ trip. She balanced warmth and professionalism beautifully, giving me space to sleep and heal while always being present and prepared.
This experience was worth every penny and then some. Gayle made an overwhelming process feel manageable, comfortable, and even positive. I will be recommending her to everyone I know and will absolutely be using her again for any future surgeries.
