Dr. Gallagher did an excellent job on major surgery on my ankle 6 years ago. Have had no problems, but needed a follow up appointment. Everything turned out to be great. She was very interested in my progress and very nice to talk to!

Dr Gallagher is the very best. I would not be walking without her. It's been a long process but I knew she was available if I needed her

Doc Gallagher is amazing. She has worked with my ankle for almost three years. Dr. in Miami did not take his time to fix my problem. Anyone who has anything negative to say about Doc Gallagher is judging her wrongfully. She does much more than just foot and ankle surgeries. Some think she a bit dry, well with all she does, she is straight to the point. Many patients want to be pampered and not understand she does the best she can. I am retired SF soldier and trust her judgement cause she truly cares. JP

Everyone else before before Dr. Gallagher wanted to and advise me to get a fusion of my ankle. After sitting and speaking with Dr. Gallagher, I had more than one option as well she helped to determine if joint replacement was good for me. Well, fast forward after surgery and a couple of itchy cast later, it was pain is no more. Thank you Dr. Gallagher for understanding, hearing, and helping me to get out of pain.

Horrible experience with this so called specialist telling my 72 year old mother whose ankle is deteriorating and very painful that her foot was “gross”. No compassion or care. Didn’t act like she had a clue how to treat. We drove 5 hours to see her and it was a horrible experience. I can’t believe the complete lack of professionalism. Vanderbilt has too many quality providers to employ this woman. I am furious anyone would be so rude.
