Patient Reviews
Feb 09, 2021
I looked for a thorough, professional Internal Medicine doctor, and I sure found him in Dr Galef. His staff did the best check of my med history I experienced, and he took time to listen, acknowledge my immediate needs and was conscious of the fact that I don't have insurance. His physical was in depth, and the treatment for my issues worked. He even addressed an orthopedic issue and gave me a conservative approach with a roadmap on what next steps would look like if that wouldn't work. I can recommend him to anybody who likes to be listened to, and have excellent medical care.
