Because of his listening spirit, compassion and encouragement, my life has changed for the better and I feel a tremendous sense of gratitude towards Dr. Gilbert for the gifts he gave me.

I saw Chuck battle to get his medial career started. He had to do a 5th year of college and then...

My deepest sympathy to the Gilbert family. My family and I had been going to Dr. Gilbert for over 20 years. He was not only my doctor but I considerd him a family friend. When ever my parents where at the hosiptal for any kind of surgery, he would stop in before they left and just joke with us and see how we were all doing. When my mom had bypass surergy, there he was sitting in the room with us passing time. This man was extordinary and there will never be another doctor like him. I've...

To the family of Dr Charles S. Gilbert Jr and Sr.I worked for Dr Gilbert Sr for nine years as a lab technician when he was with the Henry Schmitz Med Group and Lee Flores in the 60's. I was very fond of your father and grandfather.I did not have the pleasure of meeting Dr Gilbert Jr.
I remember we always talked about all of his children. You have my deepest sympathy in the loss of your father. If Dr Gilbert Sr still remembers me, please give him my condolences.

Dr. Charles Gilbert, Jr. was my doctor for 7 years. It will be hard to find a new doctor that can fill his shoes. He was not just a great doctor, he was a great inspiring friend.

Dr. Charles Gilbert, Jr. will be missed.
