A North Alabama doctor had her medical license revoked  over pill mill and fraud allegations.
Dr. Francene Aretha Gayle’s license was revoked by the Medical Licensure Commission of Alabama.
The order says that Dr. Gayle operated three clinics in North Alabama, one in Huntsville, one in Athens, and one in Killen. The order also says that Dr. Gayle was the only physician working at any of those clinics, but that together they saw as many as one-hundred patients per day.
The allegations against Dr. Gayle include heavy over prescription of opioid and other narcotic pain medication, as well as billing fraud to health insurance companies and medicaid.
