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.

I wish my previous dermatologist was as thorough as Dr. Gallego. Impressed.

Poor bedside manner
No compassion or empathy for patients. Book an appointment for everything even quick questions.

Probably the best dermatologist you will find. I've been going to him for about 10 years starting when I could not get a diagnosis for severe Contact Dermatitis. I went to many doctors and Dermatologists with no clear diagnosis or effective treatments. Finally with my first visit to Dr. Gallego , he was able to see exactly what the problem was with one look and get me the proper treatment. I have been going to him ever since for any skin issues. He is kind and easy going and listens.
