Hands down, Amazing! Such a caring office staff and Doctor. My pain was relieved after years of no relief.

Very rude, spends a total of 2 minutes in room tells you physical therapy and water is the treatment. 60 days later still hurting so I went to a real doctor and now need surgery. See you in court doc! Hope your malpractice is paid up!

Unprofessional, rude, and useless. He does what he's told by others and does not have your best interest in mind.

The assistant that follows the Dr around is very rude as is the doctor himself. He doesn't like questions, and walked away while I was speaking to him then told me to get out. I was simply asking about my return to work. He said I couldn't return so my employer requires FMLA paperwork. THIS DOCTOR REFUSES TO FILL OUT ANY FMLA PAPERWORK OR SHORT TERM DISABILITY PAPERWORK!! He was 20 minutes late to my appointment and spent 7 minutes in the room. If you are employed and the employer requires any paperwork do not expect to have this physician to stand behind his diagnoses with a signature. I had to cancel my physical therapy because my leave from my PCP is expiring and they require a prescription and follow up with the prescribing physician to treat me.

I saw Dr. Galate and found him to be very helpful. He is not a dr for the uninformed though, and he does not mince words. He is a good dr though and helped me tremendously. I was impressed by his knowledge and quick assessment. He got right to the root of my problem.

My experience with this doctor is not bad but not great either. One thing I don't like is the fact he has an assistant in the room. While some people may not mind this, I did. Once she was done typing, she stood there and stared at me. It was so uncomfortable. Dr Galate himself seemed to have a bit of a chip on his shoulder so maybe they all were having a bad day.

I would not recommend this doctor to anyone. He was rude, abrupt and dismissive toward me. I didn't do anything to deserve his behavior. I asked the normal questions that any patient would inquire of his or her doctor and he became impatient and outright rude. He must think that his walls are made of soundproof concrete, which they are not, because as I was waiting in my exam room, I overheard him treating another patient with similar rudeness. I am amazed that this doctor has any patients at all. Do not give your money to this impolite and offensive little man. Why should he profit off of this behavior. Go elsewhere! There are plenty of other doctors out there. Please follow my advice and seek out a doctor who cares and that would NOT be Dr. Galate.

This obese, penguin walking, sad excuss for a doctor actually has created a bad reputation umong other doctors. He’s at risk for a heart attack and sounds angry when walking into the room, but it’s his uncontrolable breathing issues due to his size. He’s obviously calused and thinks everyone is against him because he’s terrible with helping people, instead he would rather send people to physical therapy so he doesn’t have to deal with them. Very military minded with this “drink water and stretch” mentality. If you enjoy being screamed at then this is a doctor for you. He dictated untrue statements on my records and prooved from day 1 that he was not concerned with my best interest in my healing process. My only regret is that I didn’t get away from this @$$hole sooner. If you care about getting better, don’t waste your time on him, because he won’t waste his on you!
