Dr. Gallagher has always been and still is a very welcoming,professional and gives all options along with his opinion on different ways to treat your ailments. He has performed surgery on my wife and I over the past. Since the 1990s we have trusted Dr. Gallagher with our care and consider him a very good friend. He has always made us feel that way. We have had success with each procedure. We have recommended Dr. Gallagher to our family and friends. I am so glad I am under his care.

This doctor just wants to get in and out of the exam room. You wait in the waiting room and exam room for almost an hour and when he finally comes in, he’ll give you maybe 2 minutes of his time. He’s fast talking and not listening and makes you feel rushed because he’s close to the door so he can head right back out. Not friendly at all. In the process of finding another doctor.
