Patient Reviews
Jan 26, 2018
Dr. Gala was the most helpful and informative gyno I may have ever had. I just went in today because my home gyno prescribed a third pap smear for me (I am only 21) after abnormal results from the first one, and he explained my entire report for me and clarified the results for me personally. He is a top physician and truly cares about his patients!
