Gayle Gerry

Gayle Gerry qualified in 1998. She spent her first 8 years in Accident & Emergency, and was also in the Army reserves as a Nursing officer. During this time she did operational tours to Kosovo, then was compulsory mobilised to Iraq in 2003 as a specialist A&E nurse based in the 200 bedded field hospital.

The move to general practice was by accident when she met a GP who was desperate for a nurse. At this point she was looking to change career.

She met a patient in 2012 who ended up putting this diabetes into remission, and her curiosity from this, led her to where she is today.

She is an ambassador for the PHC. She has run group consultations for diabetes remission since 2019 both face to face and online, and is one of the organisers of the Primary Care Lifestyle conference, which she is now planning the 4th one.

She also leads a session on David Cavern’s (endocrinologist) health care professionals course – low carb for type 2 diabetes.

Gayle’s Top Tips

What is your blood glucose? If you have no idea get a constant glucose monitor and find out where the sugar in your diet is coming from.
If you are not hungry – don’t eat.
Create habits. Habits are more lasting than relying on will-power.
