Dr. Gallia is a gifted neurosurgeon!! He is caring, compassionate and wants the best for each person he cares for. He did my surgery in September, 2020 for a pituitary tumor. It was an extra delicate surgery because of the location of my tumor. I could not have asked for a better neurosurgeon.

Dr Gallia is indeed an Angel. God performs His miracles thru him. I am still amazed with the surgery he performed on my boyfriend. Besides his phenomenal ability it was his calming, peaceful and kind spirit...that gave me the reassurance that the 14 hour surgery would go well. It turned out Excellent. I will always give prayers of gratitude for all that Dr Gallia did along with Dr Ishii. The amazing surgery staff with him, awesome...may God bless them all.

Dr Gallia was recommended to me by another doctor who gave him high praises. Dr. Gallia far exceeded my expectations in every way. Doc took the time to explain everything to me in a way that I understood and that put me at ease. Doc was attentive to me during my stay in the hospital and maintained contact after recovery. I feel as though Dr. Gallia is more like a friend than just my doctor. You are in good hands with Dr. Gallia.

Without any hesitation, I can say that this man is an amazingly gifted neurosurgeon. My spouse had a large macroadenoma removed at Hopkins this week. Dr Gallia and his team were amazing. The surgery took a while as he masterfully removed the tumor that had been there undetected for years. I found this doc after hours of searching on the web for the best docs nationwide. I am so glad we found him. He and his team were amazing. He has a great bedside and truly cares. The nursing staff agree
