Doctor Gallivan and his entire staff are incredible. Their bedside manner and their one to one interaction is great. Surgery and out-patient follow up was excellent as well. Have recommended Dr. Gallivan to family members.

I took my mother to Dr. Gallivan years ago and I have to tell you nothing has changed. It’s just still the most wonderful atmosphere. The staff is helpful and they’re happy. I hadn’t been back in five years and I’ll tell you I will not recommend anybody else for the things that they are able to accomplish. Thank you.

Dr. Gallivan with each visit has always been very thorough and takes the time to explain and answer all my questions with honest unbiased responses.
The staff was professional, enjoyable to talk to and on time.
I have had 2 knee replacements, each with a different outcome.
In my situation it was his opinion that a surgical revision to a previous knee replacement (preformed by a different doctor) might very well not bring substantial improvement.
Therefore not recommending performing surgery if it would not be guaranteed for an improved outcome. I agreed with him.
The knee he did replace is doing very well- I am completely happy with its function.
He is also concerned about the patient sustaining/building good overall health for a long enjoyable life. With this visit he recommended a book (Younger Next Year) showing his strong commitment to the importance of maintaining mobility and overall health.
Glad the SB area has his expertise.

i'm a former knee replacement patient from 5 yrs ago. i called yesterday to talk about my other knee, and was scheduled to come in for x-rays and consult that same day! I'm a fan from before, and continue to be. Dr Gallivan and staff are the best.
