I loved her immediately . She was personable and knowledgeable. I didn't have to wait long and she addressed all my concerns. I recommend her highly. Thanks Zocdoc for the find!

The doctor fit me in for a same-day appointment! Not only that, but I was seem promptly and was treated with kindness and efficiency by Michelle, the office assistant. Dr. Gallin listened carefully then examined me thoroughly. She sought a confirming diagnosis from a colleague in an adjacent offense who also saw me immediately. It was a great experience during a potentially scary time. I highly recommend.
