I had been looking for a new physician for a year. I’m so happy I found Dr Gallela. My only complaint - trying to get through to the office staff!

Dr Galella is, by far, the best and most caring/knowledgeable doctor I have been associated with. She takes her time to make sure all my concerns are addressed,,, and she explains options and medication risks vs rewards before helping me to choose the option best for me. She is very thorough and knows my specific issues and history before she enters the exam room. IF I could give her more than 5 stars, it would be well deserved!

Dr. Galella spent time as if you were the only person she had to care for. The visit was not at all rushed. She let you talk & she listened & made sure all your questions were answered. My entire family sees her & I can see why they so highly recommended her.
