Dr Galli is the absolute best. She shows more compassion and empathy than any other doctor I have experienced. She takes her time to answer questions and concerns. You can't find a more caring doctor. My feet were a mess, you could hardly recognize them as feet. Now I can wear sandals! You can't go wrong with Dr Galli!
