Unethical Dr! I was a patient of his for more than 6 years, i always paid my copay I went in this month I was told I owed just about $1300 and I could not be seen until paid! They wouldn’t even work with me! Meanwhile he has me dependent on very strong pain meds and now I just have to go through withdrawals! I would like to mention this was the first I was told I owed anything more and it dated back more than 4 years! Patient beware don’t let this happen to you find a more caring Dr! Apparently he never took the oath to care for his patients! They only handed me a breakdown for 4 years and that came to only 750 so just how far are they going back? Most current were $.79 $5 the majority was from 2019 yet I was never informed they had issues getting paid I did call my insurance and was told some were rejected for double billing!
This doctor has been in practice for at least 20 years. Strick rules are enforced here but with good bedside manners (no beds, no overnight stays ever). Courteous people working here.

They made an error in Billing since June 2021 it is now March 2022. They just notified me last Friday and I had an appointment this Thursday they wanted me to pay over $200 switch was the payment I am only on Social Security and do not have the entire payment and was told I could not see the doctor unless I had the entire payments and the office visit which is now $22 a visit. I tried to call and reschedule the appointment they would not take my call they would not reschedule my appointment. Therefore I have no more opioid medication, I will be going through withdrawal all because of money that they did not build correctly in the beginning. I have every intention of paying that bill the only problem was I could not pay it in the entire day. I would never go back to a doctor like that that would just leave his patients flat without medication.
Dr.Galang is a wonderful doctor but his wife is a terrible office manager!! She's rude, she talks to you like you’re stupid, she has no people skills at all! SHOULD NOT BE WORKING THERE!! I've seen and heard her do some pretty awful things to people and especially the staff! I over heard her threatening to take money from employees pay check if they make a mistake WHO DOES THAT!? It’s all about money for them so greedy! They threaten to with hold prescriptions for the most insane reasons! I DO NOT RECOMMEND WASTING YOUR TIME HERE!!!

Friendly courteous explained what he was doing why it needed to be done. He Very much put you at ease answering any questions I had . I would definitely recommend.
I scheduled an appointment for Dr. Galang‘s office when I was still living in Oakwood Ohio. I had searched the web very seriously looking for someone that could take care of all of my very specific needs and Dr Galang has met every single one of them. I’m also learning more about pain management. It has been almost one year now and I must say I’ve never felt better! Thank you Dr Galang.

He just seems to ever be the only one who cares. He treats you like a human, which is hard to find because most doctors think that their education and money they paid for it triumphs over how their patients feel. But not Dr. GALANG. He is one of a kind. I had a similar experience up north but not nearly as informative and as pushing for wanting the answers as much as I do. I would have maybe lost my mind once or twice without the kindness and understanding of this man and his talent. I'll forever be grateful. ???? He just seems to ever be the only one who cares.

I saw Dr. Glang when I lived in Florida and found him to be knowledge in a kinds of pain. He truly care about his pts. Now, his wife worked in his office a clearly was not a good decision. I appreciate all he was able to do to control my pain.
After billing the insurance wrong and me saying it wasn’t right my insurance paid it but no one would even try to give me another appointment took several months to get insurance deal right was not my fault totally dr office fault!! Dr was great staff was very bad!

I'm a newer patient of Dr. Galang and my previous pain management Doctor literally just handed you your script and said bye. He would only see you every other month. I'm so happy I found Dr. Galang. He does a thorough evaluation, orders updated MRI'S and other tests, and does a complete checkup each visit. He tries to get to the root of your pain. Best of all, you always see the Doctor. He doesn't just toss opioids at you, he tries several different approaches to help you enjoy life again.

Dr Galang is the most understanding, compassionate doctor I've ever seen! He finally gave me hope again towards a pain free life. He is so knowledgeable and takes the time to really get to know you and what ails you and knew how miserable life can be for someone with disability pain every day in life. Dr Galang I haven't felt so hopeful in a long time and I am truly blessed to have found a doctor like you!! Thank you so much!! Staff is also very friendly. --Nicole B.

Dr. K.Galang Is a great experience pain management dr; he has been my doctor for over 1 year now I’m very happy with I consider him the best pain management dr In fort Myers Fl
I have never had a doctor that was more compassionate and empathetic to how pain has affected every aspect of my life. And willing to work with me get it under control, which he has. He has given me back a quality of life I never ever thought I would have again. And as a person who suffers with chronic pain, that was a gift I never thought I would have. But thanks to Dr galang,I do!
He is the best Doctor in Lee county. He sees each and every patient on every visit and orders tests to try to get to the root of the problem. Before I met Dr Galang a couple months ago, my previous pain management Dr just gave me medication, ordered zero test and did nothing. Dr Galang is the best by far
Super nice man, EXCELLENT “bedside manor”, treats you like your telling the truth, doesn’t question your condition and will restore your confidence in pain management.Dr Galang is very efficient and knew EXACTLY what I was trying to explain and How and why I arrived at his office. Super compassionate and MOST OF ALL-FULL OF EMPATHY AND ANSWERS to the root of my MULTIPLE and Lifelong hand pain issues that have now compounded...Where others Doctors failed me-Dr. Galang is going to FIX ME... This man is the real deal.

Dr. Dalang is a very good and caring doctor, so is the medical staff. This fact makes it very difficult to write a negative review. However, the office staffs are behaving like heartless robots; which leaves a sour taste in my mouse with every visit. They keep on charging copay amounts above and beyond the required amounts. My wife did not remember, not to pay with a credit card in this office and was charged without warning a $3.00 convenience fee. It also generates very negative feelings when exposed to their posted office rules, to have to make a new appointment if one is a minute late, while sitting for more than one hour over the appointment time to see the doctor. For that reason I have decided to say “Kaya mahaba” or “Busa dugay” Doctor Galang. Dr. Dalang is a very good and caring doctor, so is the medical staff.

I first came to Dr Galang office about 3 months ago he sat with me almost for an hour looked at CDs of all xrays and read the reports I felt that he really knew what he was doing I've been to several Doctors in the past but Dr Galang listen to me and asked questions, I've been in health care for over 20 years, and seen my share of Doctors. But I can really say Dr Galang cares im so grateful that he was referred to me. And recomend him.

I was born with perifeal artery disease and iv had over 20 surgeries. Iv been a patient of Dr Galang for over 2 years and after the last 2 surgeries he has took time out of his personal time to come to the hospital and get my meds and pain under control. Iv never had a pain management Dr EVER come see me at a hospital. If i call them Dr Galang or his Cert Nurse which is a angel in disqus calls me back. As i write this im having a problem with phantom limb pain as i had my left leg removed above the knee and its horrible and Dr Galang is trying everything he knows to try to fix it as phantom limb or phantom pain is very hard to diagnose...Thank you Dr Galang for being the best Dr iv ever seen and or delt with..you sir are a god sent thanks again Roger Bess I was born with perifeal artery disease and iv had over 20 surgeries.

I have been going to dr. Galang on and off for about 20 years for pain management and he is an excellent doctor he's not only compassionate and knowledgeable but he's also very thorough in his approach to finding the cause of the problem not just masking the symptoms he's an amazing doctor and an amazing man and I feel so blessed to have him as my doctor and I truly thank him for everything he's done for me over the years
Years ago, I needed walker and cane to aid in my mobility. I was in constant pain, dreaded each day. Under Dr.'s care, I look forward to each day, and remain almost pain-free under his treatment of injections and controlled use of pain medications. He has given me back my life, and I'm forever grateful.

Staff is very unhelpful. Nobody calls you back and they don't do what they say they will. Dr Galang was great but will never go back because of staff.
They don't mind making you wait an hour and a half after your appointment but they also have a sign that says if you're 5 minutes late you have to rebook. Time is apparently only money to them. The hour and half of my time they wasted is apparently irrelevant.
I have been charged fifty dollars twice when I didn't owe it. For the last week I have explained over and over that I just got out of the hospital. I feel and broke the top of my leg and the bottom of the neck of my hip. Can't walk 100%. For 6 to 8 weeks. Husband works. Could he electronic my prescriptions. Staff said they would ask and call me back. No call backs. No prescription s called in. We are having a major hurricane and what have I had to worry about. Medicines. I had appointment while I was in hospital my insurance case worker called. My daughter called and rescheduled for a Monday she realized a On Saturday I was not physically able to make my appointment and called and left cancellation on message. I called on Monday to make sure. After waiting call after call finally talked to receptionist and he said I had to pay for no shows. Bad enough they charge you 3 $ for using credit card they also charge50$ if your five minutes late. Nice Dr must need money. I have been charged fifty dollars twice when I didn't owe it.

Best pain mgmt doc ever!
He help me when no else would tell me the truth, thought I was going crazy with all the pain I was having but he told me the truth about my condition & have been going to him ever since...
Dr. K. Galang has proved to be an excellent, very caring doctor for long term rehabilitation services, he covers all aspects of your problem, excellent patient / doctor relationship can be expected. Staff is well versed in all health services as well. A doctor I can refer!
Best Doctor I have ever had. He taylors your care for the best care for you. He isn't like a lot of other doctors who prescribed the same meds for everyone. He works with you for the right meds that work. Been with him 10-12 yrs. I moved & couldn't find a doctor as good so I travel back to Ft. M just to see him. He is the best. I put God first & the care for my chonic pain next & that means coming back for the best doctor who knows what he is doing. Yes, he is worth the travel time I put in to see him.

Doctor Galang spends time with you , he listens and actually helped me spearhead somethings other doctors weren't helping me with and probably should have. He's and in a convenient location for me . Easily get in and out of there in less than 45 minutes ... he also let me try a few different medications to see what helped me best being as I am a chronic pain patient . Sometimes doctors don't give you options . What works for somebody sometimes don't work for somebody else ...I have had back surgery and still have a lot of pain... I need medication to get out of bed... it's hard to deal with.... I have had a few doctors I didn't care for.... he's a nice young guy , he's smart and friendly .....as good as a time you can have dealing with pain..... thanks doc !

I have been seeing Dr Galang for over 5 years and he is the best Doctor for my issues of pain since my surgery that went bad, and I thank this fabulous Doctor for all the help he has given me in relieving some of my ongoing pain therapy to help relieve this terrible nerve pain that I live with 24 /7 ! And if I have to WAIT in the waiting room for as long as I have to it’s because he is spending time with other patients as you and I with issues like all of us it’s not because( he’s out having lunch or drinks or playing golf ! ) so I can understand our time is valuable to but , There are times when I go in early and they take me right away before my scheduled appointment , so I just had to say that because of some patients remarks as I sit and wait with them and hear them and I think he’s a fabulous doctor and he’s giving the other patients good service like he give me ! The staff he has now and that has been there for awhile is really very Pleasant and helpful and always smiling when they speak to me no matter what time of day I have been in ! This group of employees are the best !! ????❤️ I have been seeing Dr Galang for over 5 years and he is the best Doctor for my issues of pain since my surgery that went bad, and I thank this fabulous Doctor for all the help he has given me in relieving some of my ongoing pain … More
Dr. Galang has been treating my pain, for various ongoing conditions since 2008. I find him professional, caring, attentive and no nonsense. For those of us with ongoing pain and no alternative relief through surgery or other methods he is a Godsend. Dr. Galang has privileges at local hospitals. Following a recent surgery I requested my surgeon call Dr. Galang for a consult. Dr. Galang came to my hospital room and developed a plan to keep me as comfortable as possible. He is truly the best!

Dr Galang is well informed of all the latest strategies to combat your pain while staying well within DEA guidelines to protect his patients first, the pharmacist that you rely on and finally himself so he can continue to serve his patients. He is not the doctor who will just hand out scripts to you and send you on your way. He takes the time to research alternative healing measures. He is kind and patient; qualities of a good listener. I know all these things, not because I was a patient but because my daughter was for many years and she told me all these things.

Absolutely the Best. Dr. Galang cares about those of us in constant pain. Post surgically he reacted with compassion when I had unexpected complications.
Excellent doctor. He listens very carefully and remembers everything. His office is run very well, the staff is very professional and friendly.
Dr. Galang listens and addresses problems. He is compassionate. His office staff are horrible. I have spent as much as three hours waiting for him. gone out of the exam room to talk to staff who ignored me. I was forgotten 2 different times. You can never get through to the office. In the past month I have called four times and have yet to have my call returned. He does charge up front and it must be cash or their is an interest charge for check or credit card. I have been overcharged

Compassionate, listens, and is genuinely concerned about his patients' well-being. I highly recommend Dr. Galang.
Both of my parents say Dr. Galaxy and I know how much time he spent trying to take career of their MANY problems!! They saw him for years, but sadly, my father passed away.....and my mother moved away (and she's told me that she wishes she was able to drive down to see him!!).
After a life altering illness,I have had to see many doctors.Dr Galang was the first and only one to give me back my quality of life. He is always looking for ways to improve my circumstances. He is the most intuitive ,compassionate and knowledgeable doctor I have ever had the privilege to meet.
Just returned from my appointment. I signed in and it took a few minutes to do the normal paper work. Everyone if the staff is very friendly and efficient, I was taken to the exam room where they took my vital signs and talked to me for a few minutes before Dr. Galang came in. As always he was very thorough and complete. He did not rush nor give the impression he was in a hurry. He always spends as much time with me that I need and every visit ends with him asking me if there is anything else he can do. I highly recommend Dr. Galang to anyone who requires pain management, of all the doctors I've seen on and off in the past 30 years for this same medical problem, Dr. Galang and staff are the best.

Dr. Galang is hands down the best doctor I have ever had. I was injured while in the military and was not receiving acceptable care from the va clinic. While at the va another vet suggested I visit Dr. Galang. As a walk in, I was greeted by his staff and given the necessary forms to fill out and they helped me arrange necessary imaging. During my visits Dr. Galangal explains procedures and symptoms, and actually cares about ME and my family. It is because of him my pain is tolerable enough for me to get out of my bed and go to work and to be able to be the father I am supposed to be for my 3 children. Without his treatment plan and physical therapy associates, I would still be sitting at home depressed and letting ptsd and my pain get the better of me. I am so thankful for the outstanding work he and his friendly staff provide to me. It is more like dealing with a friend than a doctor. I refer other vets and anyone I meet that suffers from pain to him. So if you are looking for a doctor that cares, Dr. Galang is your guy! Update: During recent visits, I have noticed Dr. Galang has increased his staff. Wait times have decreased, and there are new comfortable chairs in the waiting area. In my previous review I forgot to mention that injections are done at this location, this is great, it is done in a clean private room, it is nice not having to drive all over town by receiving the treatment on sight. If you are like me and suffer from chronic pain, call and make an appointment. Dr. Galang will put together a treatment plan and you will enjoy life again. I can not show my gratitude enough, everyone there is very professional and they treat you like a person not just a patient. Dr. Galang is hands down the best doctor I have ever had.

Dr Galang has a systematic approach to diagnosis and treatment approaches with the best outcomes. Excellent listener and is very concerned of your needs and goals. He throughly completes a physical exam and discusses the findings with you prior to beginning a treatment process. He is just as concerned of your health as your are!!! No Question!!! Thank you Dr Galang and staff for your professionalism and upmost concern towards my needs and goals.. Feeling great!!! ????
I've been on opiads for 58 years and Dr. Galang is the only doctor that has targeted specific areas and tested my pain levels. In the beginning he prescribed minimal dosages and increased it according to my needs. He encourages me to call with progress of my pain management. I have recommended him to others and will continue to do so.
Charges Medicare deductible upfront. Charges 6$ to use a credit card, doesn't take checks, takes only cash. Greediness about. T

Dr Galang always tries to find the time to listen to my issues. I don't feel rushed. I feel that he truly concerned about my well being. The office manager, Maria, always tries to move the patients to the rooms so we are not waiting too long. Dr Galang's clinic is small but I feel that they know the patients. We Don't feel like we're just a number.

Like so many others on here, I hate to give Dr. Galang 1 star, as he is a good, caring, doctor who really listens, and wants to help. But, his office manager, wife, is beyond rude, condescending, and money hungry!! I lost my job in December of 2013 because of my medical condition. Dr. Galang seemed very understanding, and told me I should have taken the disability at work when he recommended it. I wasn't able to afford to see him after that, as a visit is $365.00, and another $110.00 for a urine test, almost every visit. Eventuality the pain was too bad , so I started going back, as self pay. I was trying to make a living selling on ebay, and I wasn't making enough to qualify for Obama Care, and I wasn't old enough, and had no kid so I didnt qualify for medicaid. On my 3rd visit, and my third $110.00 urine test, I questioned the office manager ( his wife) about why I had 3 in a row, and how financially it was killing me. Rather than trying to be nice, she was very rude and kept trying to get me to just insert my card without answering my concerns. So, I did run my credit card ( which by now was pretty much maxed ), but I still wanted answers, so she rushed me into a room. Once in there, she said, why don't you just go get a job? I said I do have a job, I do what I can from home. To which she said, then, get a part time one, and then told me that she could always just send my urine test out to a lab, and pay $900.00 instead! I was fuming! No concern at all for my pain, my feelings, or my situation. After all this time of barely being able to afford my visits, paying over $400.00 a month for 4 months straight, this was how I was bring treated? 2 or 3 visits after that I was still paying cash for my visits, then I managed,the beginning of November, to get a plan through the Marketplace. I was so relieved to know I would finally be able to afford both my visit and my medication. soon as I walked in she asked me if I got her call that I had a urine test today. I told her no I hadn't, and that I had insurance now with Florida Blue. Immediately she tells I have 30 day grace period, and that I was supposed to let her know a week in advance. I told her Noone had told me that. So,then, she starts saying it's on the wall, and now my treatment would be delayed unless I just paid it myself. It did not say that on thewall, it said to report changes, which I did. She didn't even look at my insurnce card. Eventually, the young man at the front told me he got a hold of my insurance and I didn't have a policy. So, I called them back, they had a computer error, so they spoke with him and gave him all the information, and assured him that I was covered and only needed to pay a $20.00 copay. So, I asked the office manager if she seen the refrence number, and she pointed at the young man, and sarcasticly says, he already talked to them and she told me to sit down. So, the young man called me up and said I have to pay then send it into my insurance company for reimbursement. I told him there was no way I could afford it today. BUT that didn't matter, it was pay it if you want your pain medication, or go without. I asked that he right me a Perscription for 30 days so that I don't get sick with withdraw, until I can find another doctor.They refused. So, I asked to talk to Dr. Galang, and his horrible office manager started again. " You can wait til he's done with all of his patients, but he already made his decision." I had already been there for 2 hours trying to get everything worked out with my insurance, to only be told, they still wanted cash!! Unbelievable! !! Rude, Offence and greedy as someone else mentioned. I really didn't think Dr Galang was this type of person, but he is the one who allows it to keep going on, regardless of complaints. Like so many others on here, I hate to give Dr. Galang 1 star, as he is a good, caring, doctor who really listens, and wants to help.

I have been going to Dr Galang for over s year. He spends time with his patients. However I have been waiting two weeks for a refill prescription. My pharmacy has contacted his office 3 times. When nothing happened I called Monday, today is Friday. Still nothing. Not good for someone with fibromyalgia and anxiety. In addition his billing is not right. When I compare what I paid to what I should have pay according to my insurer there is a discrepancy. sometimes under a dollar but they add up. I have been going to Dr Galang for over s year.

I am writing this review on behalf of my sister Geraldine. I have been a patient of Dr. Kenneth Galangs' for at least twenty years. I have followed him through two different pain management offices and now his own practice. I feel that Dr. Galang is a man of integrity. He listens to your problems and gives you answers. If he doesn't have the answers on the spot, he will research your question and find an answer. Laticia, his right hand woman, is always there to help with a smile.

Dr Galang communicates clearly, and has compassion for his patients. I recommend him highly.
This is a very good, intelligent Doctor. We need more Doctors like this in SW Florida. Follows all the rules and when he asks you how you are, he really means it. Best Doctor around. >Stan W
Have been going to Dr. Galang for over 10 years. Has been very helpful in managing my pain. I am presently seeking a Surgeon from Mayo Clinic to permanently fix my back. Dr. Galang suggested that I seek this treatment.
Well , he's a nice guy, but he's a little bit to strict with patients that obviously need help. He does not let you have a break if your pain is more than you can stand, and you try something else in the meantime. When your hurting that bad is when he should say Maybe we need to try something else, this is obviously not doing the job. Instead he says this is your last script, find another doctor. I like the man, but Damn give a guy a break when he's down. Don't make it harder than it is already. He treats you like your some kind of kinky or something. Does he really think we like having to take the medicine. I hate having to take it. However it makes life worth living. It makes it possible to enjoy life.

Dr. Galang has been treating me for at least 5 years now and I wouldn't go anywhere else!! He listens to me and understands me. He is a wonderful, kind, compassionate doctor.
Dr Galang's been my pain specialist nearly 10 years because he takes time to listen, explain, and help me cope with a chronic condition (and a bout with cancer). While my medical status changes he remains calm, patient and compassionately consistent Over time I've had few unfortunate "irritating moments". Perhaps I empathize with the headaches of both patients and staff since I worked in another (not pain) doctor's office. Patients walked in without appointments and worked into the schedule wherever possible. Hurting, anxious, tired patients may take more time than usual and WILL clog up the schedule. Emergencies happen. Endless changes in insurance, electronic medical records, diagnosis coding, along with State and Federal prescribing regulations must be a nightmare for a small office of one provider. Dr.Galang provides excellent specialist care. It's not a corporate operation with many locations, providers and insurance processing/administrative staff. I can overlook most office nuisances that may arise.These days I'm thankful I'm treated by the doctor like a patient and not just another office visit.

Dr.Galang and his staff are amazing people, I have been going there for a long time and I wouldnt switch to no other doctor, the caring, attentive concerns, and the reminder call back is great because I do forget my appts. I do agree with others that say about the long wait but that happens in every doctor office. But Dr.Galang is worth the wait. Dr.Galang will give you his full attention when you come to his office. I hope everyone gives him the 5 star he deserve, because everywhere you go there will always be a flaw in the staff but without the staff the appts., the sign in, and the procedure in an office before you see the doctor is the same. Maria(his wife) who preps for the injection and runs the staff, Latica(his right hand)does everything diligently , and JV(the do everything hardworking quiet staff) he so much tries to get everyone in on time. I so much Thank You for Dr.Galang, it never fails I complain about something he finds the problem or resolve it for me. -Amanda Van Pham- Dr.Galang and his staff are amazing people, I have been going there for a long time and I wouldnt switch to no other doctor, the caring, attentive concerns, and the reminder call back is great because I do forget my appts.

I have been seeing Dr Galang for 3-4 yrs. Dr Galang is very compassionate and caring. He listens to you and tries to help you to the best of his ability. Dr Galang ALWAYS enters the room with a big smile and a nice hello. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Galang to any of my family or friends!
I have been with Dr. Galang for over seven years including his time with Dr. Kagan. When i first met him it was for my wife and her shoulder problems,from that first meeting I knew that this was a man who was genuinely concerned about his patients well being . From that day forward I was sold,I highly recommend him to family,friends and anyone who ask me of a doctor that I put my trust in.If it was not for Dr. Galang I would be so far behind in the treatment of the condition of my both wrists,other doctors just wrote me off as having wrists that basically were non treatable and I would just have to deal with the constant pain and there was not much help to maintain a somewhat normal life. After we discussed my options I finally had hope instead of dispair,to this I owe Dr. Galang my sincere gratitude.

Dr Galang is the most intuitive, knowledgeable, compassionate physician I've ever had. Due to my chronic illnesses fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis ,spinal stenosis etc.. I have been under the care of many many physicians who would only treat the illness they were concerned with never taking into consideration how all the disease states affected each other. So no one ever treated me as a whole and this resulted in the inability to have any quality of life until I met Dr Galang. In 3 months time he is been able to get all my disease states under control. Recognizing the most severe first and getting it under control so he could proceed to correct the other disease states. He has given me back a quality of life I have not experienced in a long, long time.

I have been a patient of Dr. Galang going on 3 years now. From the moment we met I knew he was going to help me. He is an amazing physician! I am very active in Barrel Racing my horses I have been since I was a young girl unfortunately, I was in a car accident which I was injured and needed long term care. Dr. Galang knows how important racing my horses means to me it's my LIFE and without my racing I am nothing. Dr. Galang is the only reason I can race he makes sure that I can live everyday life and do what I love the most! I have so much respect for him. Everyone in the office has been GREAT!! I've never had an issue. Maria, JV, Leticia have always been so nice to me and helped in making sure I have the best appointment with Dr. Galang.

Dr. Galang is a truley great doctor! From the way he greets you, to the help he offers his patients. He is very compassionate & knowledgable and provides fibromyalgia treatment (which some doctors do not believe in..) instead of just writing you a prescription and sending you on your way, he does his best to find helpful solutions. Dr Galang remembers everything we talk about at each appointment, even though he is always booked and sees double the patients than most.. which goes to show a lot about his character.

Dr. Galang is much more than an excellent physician he's an above excellent human being and a hell of a nice guy. I'm seeing him for a disabling neuropathy in my hand as I am a pianist. I'm not giving up and I don't expect he will either till I arrive at the optimal end result. I have the highest regard and respect for Dr. Galang's intelligence and genuine concern of not just my illness but me personally.

My primary care doctor was unable to continue to write my pain meds after 10 years. My friend suggested I go to doctor Galang, and I am very happy I did. Dr Galang excepted me as a new patient with open arms. He listened, and is easy to talk to. During every appointment he makes me feel like I am his most important patient. He is innovative, and when he tries something new or different he keeps what works, and continues to fix what doesn't. I found Dr Galang to be that small town characteristic doctor that also has the state of the art techniques, and keeps up to date with modern medicine. I appreciate Dr. Galang.

I have been a patient of Dr. Galang for over 5 years now and I love the type of Doctor he is......he listens to his patients and actually cares. I've had a few issues with one office person but when you have lupus and you see a lot of doctors, you learn that little things like that doesn't matter when you find such a good doctor!!!! I will stay with him til it's my time!! In fact I even referred my mom and dad to him. He's one of my FAVORITES ????

I found myself BLESSED approx 6 yrs ago when I was referred to Dr. Galang! Otherwise I'd be traveling to Tampa as there are no doctors IMHO who are Pain Management Specialists with an Internist background full of knowledge to diagnose & treat just about anything and especially a condition as complex as RSD/CRPS! The ailments that go along with this disorder can be and have been; life changing/debilitating Physically & mentally! If it were not for Dr. Galang's compassion along with his exceptional patience & knowledge overall, I would NOT be where I am today! Alive & still wanting to live!!! As you all know chronic pain overall is difficult to deal with no matter what the diagnosis! And to have a doctor who is Local and privately owned in this ObamaCare age we live in....is almost obsolete! Doctors cannot survive on there own so if the Office needs to tweek some charges in just to survive, well so be it! And having a medical background over 30 years, I've seen it all working in hospital settings as well as office settings. We'd see 80-100 patients a day 20 years ago! And the one in charge has to run a tight ship or all else will fail! It's a stressful job in the front office and to check in & out all those patients day in & day out, along with all the other chaos that goes along: each have always been helpful & courteous, On appt day, I'd much rather go prepared mentally that I'm going to wait! I've been in & out on many occasions, HOWEVER I've held Dr. Galang up more times which I'm sure backed him up & made patients a little frustrated! What I'm saying is if & when you need that extra time with him, he is going to give you all the attention you need to figure out a plan to extend your quality of life to the best of his ability! And you will never feel rushed when he's with you! Also, having a doctor where I have all the confidence in the world that I'd refer my family to says much about the person! And I did... I sent My brother & sister-in law who came from the east coast, one with a history of many complex problems and then my beloved brother who was diagnosed with ALS! Although he was under the umbrella of the VA, Dr. Galang took him under his wing and gave him months of enjoyable quality of life that the VA would never have addressed! Nobody told us the severe pain that may go along with ALS as your muscles are wasting & paralysis is taking over the entire body,... Dr. Galang gave him & his family the best memories during those months and nothing can take that away from us! I can contest that there is no Dr I know who would stop the flow of inside the office to come outside to see their patient but did, as my brother laid back in his wheelchair unable to sit up and unable to press the control due to weakness that took over in the end stage. Due to that, Dr. Galang and his MA came out & talked with him through the window of the handicapped Van. It brought tears to my eyes and still does as that was the last time they'd see each other! I'm sure there were patients waiting to be seen in the waiting room as well as in the treatment rooms. I'd like to take this opportunity to 'thank them' for waiting patiently while they seen the doctor leave the building to do this for my brother!!! Also I hope it encourages you to know if & when that time is needed, Dr. Galang is caring enough to go above & beyond his call of duty! You as well as (myself) have the whole entire package being under the care of such a compassionate man who absolutely cares about the welfare of his patients! He has won numerous awards in Lee County which is an achievement like no other as I'm sure we're Peer chosen as well. It is a Blessing to have him as my doctor and feel grateful each time I walk into the office!!! Thank you all for reading my statement and hope all who've had any issues were only temporary & resolved! Ann I found myself BLESSED approx 6 yrs ago when I was referred to Dr. Galang!

Dr Kenneth Galang is one of the best specialists I have personally ever met in all my years of doctors. Upon every single time I visit his office I always meet with him every one of my patient appointments. He is outstandingly extremely friendly and courteous and each visit he really spends quite a great deal of time with me. He does not just answer my questions about his area of medical speacialty but exact on other areas that would be another doctor's concern to aide and assist me. Along with Dr Galang the entire staff of nurses and assistants and receptionists are incredable. When I'm asked by anyone about whom to make an appointment with I always absolutely state Dr Galand and his medical office.

I have been a Patient of Dr. Galang's for 9 years. He has treated me for multiple spinal, muscular, joint and tendon problems over the years, included a spinal tumor, that if untreated, would have left me paralyzed. His persistence to get to the root of problems never stops, and I am walking today because of him. He is also treating me for Chronic Pain from Fibromyalgia. He is always current on the latest treatments and medications, but never forces any treatment or medication on his patients. He has referred me several times for Physical Therapy and other alternatives. He listens to his patients, but more importantly he actually hears what they are saying. If there comes a time that Dr. Galang is running behind, it is simply because he gives each and every patient the time that they need. I have never left his office with unanswered questions. On two separate occasions I was suffering from a locked neck, due to disc and muscle problems. Instead of sending me home and telling me to come back for scheduled Trigger Point Injections, he preformed the injections then and there. I know that it takes some time to perform the injections, but he does the same for all of his patients that are in crisis. There are very few Doctors that give the time to their patients, that Dr. Galang gives to his patients. He has no problem allowing his patients to bring in their loved ones or caregivers to discuss treatment options, medications or health concerns. I have referred several people to Dr. Galang and each of those referrals are extremely satisfied. I have 100% confidence in Dr. Galang and would recommend him to anyone. He is well known and very respected by all of my other Doctors, and has no problem working together with them to give me the best medical attention and outcome.

Very poor patient care. He puts you on strong addicting medications and then because my insurance number changed at beginning of New Year would not see me without self paying even though insurance was still valid. His wife is so money hungry and rude to employees and patients Hard to get through on the phone. Seek alternative Dr if you can.
Lost my Doctor 5 years ago and had Dr Galang many years ago and was delighted to find him again. HE CARES AND HE IS EXCELLENT IN PATIENT CARE... I cannot imagine dealing with my medical condition without him~!!! Great Staff also
I h ave been a patient of zDr. Galang for approximately 13 years prior to this I knew Dr Galang in a professional capacity as I was a nurse at a hospital where he frequently did rounds and we work together on several patients to bring control their pain of severe pain. since then I became very ill and was diagnosed with a aggressive autoimmune disease and I could not have gotten through the last 13years without him! Just Go I promise you will not be sorry!
Been a patient since 2004, I have followed him during three moves. He is caring and has addressed all my problems to my satisfaction. I have recommended him to other friends.
I like the doctor, but the office is not well run and has an excessively greedy air. They call you in advance to tell you how much cash to bring. If you use a credit card, there is a $4 service charge. No other doctor has ever charged a service charge for using a card in my experience. They collected on my last visit based on my deductible, even though I had a major claim in process (MRI) which would fully satisfy the deductible. Now I will have to fight for a refund.
