Patient Reviews
Dec 18, 2024
Dr. Galgano always explained everything clearly in a way I understood. He treated me respectfully with thoughtful consideration. He went above and beyond to help me have the best experience throughout my surgery and treatment. Every time I saw him, he knew every aspect of my case and treatment without looking at my chart. He spoke with me, not through the computer at me. He treated me like my procedure and experience was the most important. He is an excellent surgeon and physician. I highly recommend him to anyone needing surgery on their spine. His decisions dictated the outcome of my being able to walk the rest of my life.
