I have been going here for almost 23 years. Everyone was very nice, sweet, and caring. I didn't know any of the nurses or Dr's this time but my Dr. The only thing that was very hard and frustrating this time there was I had to wait more than 2 hours in the very small crowded waiting room to be called to go in. Once I was called pre op went very quick. They got you ready for the OR very quick and they asked all the questions about meds and allergies before going into the OR. Again the nurses were very kind and caring and treated me very well. Everyone took very good care of me ... just the wait time was very long and very uncomfortable considering I was there because of pain along with the more I waited the more anxious I got which wasn't good.

Professional, kind and experienced! Everyone from Todd (the scheduler) to the front staff who registers and completes the paperwork is terrific and friendly. The medical staff at each step is very professional, kind and experienced. Dr.Untal is my pain management specialist and he is spectacular at listening and understanding where the pain in my body needs treatment. The anesthesiologists and surgical staff are excellent at informing you what happens next so there is no anxiety about worrisome expectations. The quality of life their procedures have given me are simply priceless.

Today, I had my second procedure performed by Dr. Carlos Untal at Galileo Surgery Center and have been extremely satisfied both times. The front desk is efficient and made it very easy to register and check in. There was a reasonable wait to be taken back both times, but not unusual for most surgery centers. The nurses in the preoperative area are very friendly, kind, caring, thorough and knowledgeable. I thin skin and usually have a lot of bruising and sometimes pain after having an IV, but both times (Valerie and Hannah) made the insertion procedure easy and painless without any bruising afterward. Dr. Untal and the nurse anesthetist both came for a brief visit before I was wheeled into the OR. The OR staff both times were Jonathan and a female and they were so friendly and efficient, plus they played good music! Michael, the nurse anesthetist is very competent and explains what he is going to do. When I woke up in recovery, I was attended to and greeted by a nurse (this time by Brianna) who took great care of me. After I got dressed, I was put into a wheelchair and rolled out to talk with Dr. Untal who explained what he had done in the OR. I was released to my husband and on my way home. Frankly, I am surprised by some of the previous negative reviews, which inspired my to share my experiences in contrast. I have also found that, even when I am in pain, it is always helpful to be nice and cooperative with the medical personnel in order to have a positive experience. I must say that I am very happy with all aspects of both of my experiences at Galileo. In addition, everything about the center is super clean and organized. I definitely recommend Galileo for pain management services.

I have been getting some procedures done on my spine, recently I have had the pleasure of being at this surgery center about 3 times in the last 6 months. Doctor P. Is amazing, he has been attentive, he actually takes his time to hear about what I need to discuss, then configures the best way to help. The staff here are my absolute fav people they are kind, take good care of me every time I get the pleasure of being here. Chris knows his stuff and always nails my IV on the first attempt. All of the individuals working here take time with me, eye contact when talking to me, they just really care about the patients, and I always enjoy my time here. Share a laugh or two with the RNs. Yes, sometimes there is a wait, but it's worth it. They deal with people. And sometimes it takes longer then expected, but it's worth it. I do have to mention for the majority of the time they are on point with time and scheduling. I recommend this place to anyone, they are the best!!!! Looking forward to seeing them again next week.

Have been going here for about six or more years. The treatments that I have had here with Dr. Patel have been excellent! Will trust not anyone with all the issues that my body has. I have full confidence in what he does. The staff at the office and surgery center are perfection. Yes their had been hiccups in appointments, but with just cause. Thank you to all!
