My gorgeous 4 year old daughter was bit in the face by the neighbors dog and ended up w chunk missing outta her cheek. I AM NOT HAPPY WITH ANY SCAR ON HER FACE. That being said. This man (Dr.Galpin) only cared about my daughter. He spoke to her directly,assuring her that nothing he did would hurt her and she did not have to be afraid. You could tell he has children as he was very good with her. He then PRECISELY took a round hunk of a wound with no skin left and sewed a straight line in with her smile line..Now...he did this 3 days ago and each time I look at her I realize how talented this man is. He still has to finish this but in my one ER meeting with him he took my little girls LIFE and made it better... So here is my message to you and advice for this Dr. SHUT UP..LISTEN..DO EXACTLY WHAT HE SAYS.....if he is not nice to you he is spending his brain power thinking of how best to fix you...Have reasonable expectations of him...he's human. And in addition to fixing YOUR problem...He is SIMULTANEOUSLY taking care of my 4 year old in his head as well as All THE OTHER PEOPLE WHO NEED HIM....So. I hope you got some clarity here...pray for my "lil Em"..and I will for your loved one as well.
My wife had what she believed was a cyst on her hand. Dr. Galpin also diagnosed it as a cyst and scheduled surgery. Upon opening up the skin, he discovered that it was instead Depuytren's disease, which should have been obvious if he had been paying attention. The absolute worst treatment for Depuytren's is surgery. Needless to say, he immediately closed the surgery. He not only refused to apologize, he became defensive and belligerent when I questioned him about his diagnosis. The surgery cost us $5,000.
I also had a terrible experience with Dr Galpin. He is worst person I have meet so rude. I agree that he may be good at his work but that does give him the right to act and talk to people the way he does. I would never go to him again or recomend him to anyone I know to have them treated the way I was.
He helped my son in the ER when his finger was shredded by a moray eel. He did a great job stitching him up and was very funny and professional.
Fantastic outcomes - Dr. Galpin is a skilled surgeon and an amazing person; he's bluntly honest, gruff, concerned with assessing and diagnosing the problem, and unconcerned how it's received - he's just giving information in the form of his expert opinion. The negative reviews complained about his politically incorrect and candid demeanor, not commenting on his medical/surgical skills. Dr. Galpin performed my carpal tunnel surgery (which I didn't want) - and had a perfect outcome, without any common complications like recurrence, nerve damage, or residual symptoms - and remains perfect many years later. He later treated wrist arthritis that was interfering with my ability to work. Certain I'd need surgery, I pushed the issue - he ignored my reasoning, refused to do the surgery, and treated it with an injected medication - which fixed it immediately; I'm still pain-free after many years without any other treatment. Whether I liked how he said it or not, Dr. Galpin gave me a better result with less expense, no recovery time, and no surgical risks. Isn't that what's important?
