Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The definition of a doctor.
Dr. Galler has been treating my family for thirty plus years. My parents, my wife, our daughter. We've trusted him with all of our surgical issues and concerns. Genuine bedside manners. Listens to his patient and has a two-way conversation. Will miss his special personality. Good luck with your future journey.

Dr Galler performed my gall bladder surgery and my husbands hernia operation. Both surgeries went along with no problems and great results! He made us both feel comfortable and totally informed of what was to be expected. We would definitely have Dr Galler perform any surgeries we would need in the future.

Happy in Somers Point – Dec 08, 2020

Dr. Galler took my medical history and did an exam which needed to be followed up with a biopsy and then surgery. He was thorough and kept me informed every step of the way. He is gentle and efficient. The office staff helped with referrals, obtaining records and scheduling surgery dates and follow up appointments.
