I am so excited to join my husband in helping provide the best care possible for our patients at Living Well Family Medicine. My name is Denyell Gerchman and have been blessed to be married to Dr. Gerchman for 31 years.
I graduated from Temple University School of Pharmacy in 1991 and have been a practicing pharmacist every year since; working in many different positions throughout my career. Eric and I have a shared passion for spending time and connecting with our patients.
My first pharmacist position after moving to Maine, was a retail pharmacist with Dave Diller at Bridgton Pharmacy. A hospital pharmacist position opened up at Bridgton Hospital and I decided to return back to hospital work. I worked for Bridgton Hospital for about 10 years before I stepped into the Pharmacy Director role there and continued that for approximately 5 years. I missed my role in taking care of patients. I missed the conversations with patients, educating them on their medications and being a part of their care. I decided to leave Bridgton Hospital and accept a staff pharmacist position at Stephens Memorial Hospital. I currently care for acutely ill patients requiring hospitalization, care for patients requiring infusions as an outpatient and have taken on the lead Oncology Pharmacist role.
My love of pharmacy is fed by patient interaction, medication questions, researching new cures whether it be natural or medicinal and educating patients. I thoroughly look forward to the opportunity to work with the patients of Living Well Family Medicine.
