I was a patient with Dr. Gallegos for two years. My son sought treatment for ADHD and was prescribed Ritalin. When he was sick with the flu, I took him to Dr. Gallegos for treatment. She prescribed medication as well as ordered a flu test. When the lab results came in, the cost was over $700. I called to inform the Dr. that the flu test was expensive and asked if the test was necessary. The office staff became extremely defensive and accused me of berating the Dr. A month later, I contacted the office to ask Dr. Gallegos to sign a form so my son could receive medication at school. I was informed that I had requested to remove myself and my family from Dr.Gallegos' services, even though I had never asked to be removed. When I tried to call and explain my situation to Dr. Gallegos, she refused to speak with me. I have never been treated so poorly by a medical practitioner; I'm surprised she has any patients at all.

The waiting area is rather small, but there is always a seat available. It would be nice if it was more spacious, but I've never had to stand. They have a very good professional reputation. I know that I'm under the care of an expert. They make sure to treat all their clients equally and without favoritism. I've always hated it when I've seen favoritism going on at other places I've visited. It's nice that it doesn't happen here. They left me alone in the appointment room for quite a while., but when in the room was very, very attentive.
