Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Caring gentleman
We were referred to Dr Galloway for our 95 yr old Uncle and his sinus issues. Dr Galloway was very kind, considerate and made sure that our uncle could hear him. He made clear suggestions and he was professional during our time. He was not rushed. He took into account that his patient was 95. He was respectful to all of us. I would highly recommend him. I am a hard sale as I am a retired health care professional. All his suggestions and treatments were very reasonable in the fact that invasive was not the solution due the age of his patient. It was a slower process but it worked.

At a 15minute rushed appointment Dr. Galloway didn't inform me of his reason for changing the previous safe and successful established wax removal method using hand instruments to the more aggressive technique of the operating scope when wax levels were the same. He didn't explain the procedure, possible side effects, and ask for my input. He completed his first medical report 10 months after seeing me for 25minutes and didn't include a treatment plan to reference for my second treatment. When I felt distress from the operating scope treatment, he showed no compassion. Since the treatment, I have experienced the onset of chronic tinnitus. Based on the success and safety of previous instrument wax removals with same or greater wax levels, I strongly believe the operating scope was an inappropriate treatment for me and the onset of tinnitus was preventable. I hope improvement suggestions I sent to Dr. Galloway and administration will encourage greater patient safety and quality care.

Excellent Doctor
Great doctor! Recently had a thyroid lobectomy. Dr. Galloway was patient and kind and explained everything in detail as to what was going to happen during the surgery and during recovery. He is definitely the right doctor what what I needed.

Dr G is personable, professional, and obviously skilled. My wife has a complicated case. He went to his peers and gathered feedback. He told us about the different feedback he got. He presented us with options of several referrals or he'd do it. He gave us a fully transparent view into his confidences and worries, and his plan to address the increased risks should we choose him.

I would not recommend for ear/hearing loss issues. I had to ask for a hearing test to be done. I kept bringing up my symptoms, but he never answered any questions or gave me any kind of treatment plan for the future. He just wrote down my diagnosis and told me I could go home and Google it. Most medical professionals would say that’s the last thing you should ever do. He left me feeling hopeless.

Won't recommend. In our opinion skills not so hot. Lacks skills and an understanding all sage, seasoned, highly skilled practitioners possess that a patient should always be the center of an empathetic care team and not a physician's ego. Sincerely hope Dr. Gallway can acquire the skills and training necessary to become an effective caretaker.

IMHO. Rude, unprofessional and insecure. Not how a physician should conduct himself towards an ill patient seeking treatment. (Possibly better with docile mannered patients.) Lacking important skill set. Cannot recommend.

I have seen Dr. Galloway on 3 visits for Warthin tumor on my neck. He was very thorough and initially took extra precaution to have me get a biopsy to determine the type of tumor it was. The biopsy results were benign and the exact type of tumor was determined not to be a parotid tumor which over time would grow and could develop cancer cells and would require surgery to remove. Then COVID virus hit and it took a while to get back in for appt to discuss biopsy results and further steps. Thank goodness I will not have to have surgery and Dr. Galloway will be following up with me in 6 mos. My last visit he was very kind and totally helped me rid the anxiety I had been carrying around since March. He also knows a bit about the band Journey. ??
