Debbie displayed concern when I told her I had been in the hospital for 3 days and my veteran, could not come to see me because he could not walk the distance. She immediately told us she would get an appointment in Gainesville, FL to see if he could get a scooter. He will be 90 years young this year. Debbie understood how important it was for our veteran's family to support each other. My veteran was very upset he could not come to see me while I was in the hospital. She quickly called the Gainesville office and left a message for them to call us for an appointment. She told the doctor our concern. She was concerned that I have been diagnosed with a heart problem and had many hospital and doctor visits in the future. The doctor, Debbie, and the pharmacist all see that my hero gets all the medications and help he needs. This is only one example. He now has a bench for showers, special toilet seat, cane, railings for a shower, and a walker. We are thankful for Debbie and all the good people at the Palatka Clinic. We know we will get help when we go there. Thanks.
