Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice. Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of healthcare services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: 1.877.810.0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Overview of patient comments

Summary created using AI

Patients appreciate

Dr. Ivonne Galarza consistently receives praise for her excellent interpersonal skills and patient-centered approach. Patients frequently describe her as friendly, kind, caring, and attentive, with many noting that she takes time to listen to concerns without rushing appointments. She demonstrates strong communication skills by engaging directly with pediatric patients, not just parents, which helps children feel comfortable and valued. Reviewers highlight her thoroughness, professionalism, and ability to provide clear, straightforward medical advice. Parents particularly appreciate that she makes them feel like their child is her only patient, showing genuine care and concern while being informative and knowledgeable about their children's needs.

Patients also share

The primary area for improvement identified in the reviews relates to appointment wait times. Multiple patients mentioned experiencing significant delays, with one reviewer specifically noting a 30-minute wait for a 9 AM appointment that caused their child to miss school and tests, with no apology offered for the delay. Another reviewer acknowledged that while Dr. Galarza was running very late, they understood this might not always be the clinic's fault, though it remained a notable concern. These scheduling issues appear to be the main source of dissatisfaction among otherwise highly satisfied patients.

Patient comments are gathered from our Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey and are displayed in their entirety. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.
