Dr. Gallivan always takes the time to address all your concerns. He does not rush you as many other doctors (in my experience) do. I actually look forward to seeing him getting the information I need to make an educated decision about my care.

Extremely favorably impressed with Dr. Gallivan. It was the most thorough and complete examination, discussion of alternatives, and recommendations on treatment that I've ever had from an orthopedic surgeon. To top it off he is particularly engaging, friendly, and highly pleasurable to chat with. I would highly recommend him. I look forward to being his patient.

Dr. Gallivan is a wonderful human being. He's kind, considerate, knowledgeable & answered my questions. He's also an excellent surgeon. He replaced one knee 2 years ago, no problems, no pain. In a week he will be replacing the other knee. I highly recomment him.
