November 07, 2024
All the staff were very pleasant & made me feel instantly better Dr. Galbreath is knowledgable & willing to pass this along to his patients And tho I was at the end of a cold he explained my options & let me know PIH Physicians would always be there for me in time of need I love the close by - no parking fee of this office I wish my other visits to the Wells bldg were as pleasant
October 30, 2024
Great experience I felt listened to and taken care of in an effective manner
October 30, 2024
Courtesy, professional
October 24, 2024
This is only my second visit. I am adjusting to the new ways of medical treatment. I am not accustom to registering myself online. Since my physician retired from her GP practice, I am navigating being a newbie. The doctor has not had a chance to get to know me yet. I rarely go to the doctor except when sick. It's my understanding now that I need to go to urgent care when sick and see the PCP for annual physicals. This is a new to me.
October 16, 2024
Excellent service by Dr. Galbreath. He truly listens.
October 10, 2024
It was a very pleasent visit, I found a new primary care doctor.
October 09, 2024
Very professional, thank you
September 26, 2024
Thank you.
September 23, 2024
Everything went smoothly as expected
September 19, 2024
It's too long to wait for an appointment.
September 18, 2024
Dr. Galbreath makes me feel confortable to actaully be honest with him.
September 11, 2024
There was a long wait for the Dr to come see me. I understand but it would hqve been better if someone at the front desk had informed me there would a wait. Since they didn't the nurse took me in rather quickly bur I had to wait a while in the room. Sometimes, it may be best go have me wait in the lobby area instead if taking me for vitals quickly and making me wait 15-20 mins sitting in an uncomfortable chair. Just my opinion.
September 09, 2024
I felt my medical needs and questions about my condition plus moving forward with a healing plan were met.
September 05, 2024
All visits should go this well.. All doctors in this office do their very best to listen and help..
September 05, 2024
Dr is empathetic and professional. Took time to listen and has excellent communication skills. Knowledgeable and great proactive treatment ideas.
September 04, 2024
I've seen dr. Galbreath for several years now. This last year I've tried to get in to see him for health issues and each time was unable. I get he's busy but maybe he has too many patients? Not sure but 3 weeks out to see him for health issues concerns me.
August 30, 2024
The Dr and staff listened, pleasant and very professional.
August 28, 2024
It was above my expectations thank you.
August 26, 2024
My recent appointment with Dr Galbreath was outstanding. He was attentive and also helps with my needs. YOu need more doctors who care as much as he does.
August 23, 2024
Make Dr's more easily available instead of having to go to urgent care.
August 16, 2024
The last question, I put a one which meant no, but absolutely would I recommend Dr. Galbraith to my family. So, I had nothing but exceptional experience. Thank you.
August 15, 2024
That was my first visit with the doctor, my first visit. It went well, but we'll see how it goes in the future. I like him. He seems to be a nice person. Thank you.
August 12, 2024
That appointments sometimes take a long time to be scheduled, even more than a month. Thank you.
August 12, 2024
So far, it's been a good experience.
August 05, 2024
I did not receive a call back for my x-rays.
August 02, 2024
My doctor, Galbreath, is very, very, very good. The bad thing about PIH is the phone system and getting an appointment. I never could get an appointment when I'm sick. I have to go to urgent care and it takes three to four months to get an appointment to see him. That's the only thing. Sometimes I want to get another doctor, but I don't even know if it will be the same. I don't want to leave my doctor because he's a very good doctor. Thank you so much.
August 02, 2024
Dr Galbreath was very thorough and I feel that I have met one of the best PCPs I've ever had in my lifetime thus far.
August 01, 2024
Dr. Galbreath listens and spends time explaining any issue or concern. Have been seeing him for years. I drive out of my way, past closer doctor offices, to see him. Very thorough. And staff is great too! Quick to respond to emails.
July 31, 2024
Good job
July 25, 2024
Other than being happy with Dr and stuff I'm good
July 24, 2024
When you're able to get an office visit Dr Galbreath is always up on your medical condition and respects your concerns. Amazing physician and his medical assistant as well.
July 22, 2024
Dr Galbreath is great. Knowledgeable with excellent bedside manner
July 18, 2024
I enjoy seeing my provider. Doctor and staff are caring.
July 15, 2024
glad we found the best doctor
July 11, 2024
Yes, I like the doctor, but my appointment, it took forever to get the appointment. It should be able to have a more available appointment sooner, not to wait for two or three weeks to see the doctor. I even request if I will go in at the walk-in. They told me that they might not be able to see the doctor because he might be running late and if I walk in and I don't get to see him that day, that my appointment that was scheduled for the 11th of this month, it would be canceled. So I would have lost that appointment on the 11th even though if I had walked in. I don't think it should be right that they will go ahead and cancel my appointment for the 11th if I walked in and I didn't get to see the doctor. That's one thing.
July 01, 2024
PIH has been very sloppy and disorganized. The wrong meds were sent to my pharmacy, when so switched insurance, my insurance called PIH Health directly and the person at PIH dropped the ball and never recorded the conversation and never made any of the updates. It took a few more phone calls and hours of waiting in the phone to finally get it straightened out. It had gotten too corporate at PIH. I feel more like a file that the dr has to look up, but they obviously don't read up enough because I am constantly reminding the doctor of who I am and why I'm there.
July 01, 2024
I always receive excellent care. Every visit has exceeded my expectations. Test results are reviewed and Dr. Galbreath explains them in a way that I could understand. Dr. Galbreath and his staff take the time to provide top quality, efficient care for his patients at every visit. I wouldn't go to another GP.
June 27, 2024
Staff was very helpful & friendly.
June 21, 2024
First time visit, looking forward to many more!!!!
June 19, 2024
Good job!
June 17, 2024
I've had 2 appointments with this provider. The first I did not get to address all my concerns. The second was 2 months after my lab work as first available where I tried again to address all further concerns by booking a 40 minute appointment after getting Doctors approval to do so. I had to speak quickly jotting notes rapidly and Doctor still was exiting before i was finished and I had to ask him to sit back down and finish with me and remind I had booked an extended appointment. Obviously I do not understand the need for a primary care physician if they are unavailable to get to know a new patients history and needs to better facilitate their care. I don't think we are a good match as patient and Doctor. PIH physicians group feels impersonal. Doctor would only know who i am today because I stopped him from leaving during my appointment because I wasn't done, not because of my concerns.
June 17, 2024
New doctor 1st time appointment.
June 12, 2024
Dr. Galbreath and all of the doctors and staff do the best they can working in a busy overloaded medical group. I miss the good old days when you could actually call the office and make an appointment. You didn't have to go to a call center where it's usually very hard to schedule an appointment and they just want you to go to urgent care or the ER. But I guess that's everywhere now.
June 05, 2024
Good Office staff, nurse practitioner and Dr. were all great!
June 03, 2024
Yes, I've been seeing Dr. Galbreath for a few years now and I really like the way he explains things to me. And he does spend enough time to discuss what I have to say and go over lab work and other things. My only thing is the time that it takes to get an appointment. And not just with him, but in general. So I would really like to see appointments being available quicker. Sometimes it's not a visit to urgent care or emergency, but just a need to see the doctor. So taking two, three months to get an appointment, I think it's way too long.
May 31, 2024
FRIENDLY, EFFICIENT AND KNOWLEDGEABLE PRACTICE... DOCTOR, NURSE AND FRONT OFFICE STAFF.
May 31, 2024
Took over a month to schedule an appointment
May 30, 2024
No, I just wanted to thank you and say that you have a very good service and that I especially like Dr. Gregory, who is very kind and very patient, and I think he is very professional in what he does. does and tells me exactly the symptoms I have in this case, no matter what they are, it is very professional and I would recommend it to the whole family, thank you.
May 30, 2024
I was almost not seen for this annual wellness visit because of a mix up and lack of communication regarding my lab orders that are req'd to be completed beforehand. Most patients wouldn't have the paperwork ready nor be getting their labs done privately. Since I am, I had enough lab work to be seen. Please fix your scheduling. (Name removed) (MA) was very nice to explain to me why I needed to start owning my lab scheduling. This wasn't my experience of PIH before this visit and I'm sad that PIH is no longer taking care of patients in this way.
May 29, 2024
Dr. Galbreath is a perfect example of an excellent doctor.
May 29, 2024
I love Dr. Galbreath. He is an excellent doctor and all your crew are just wonderful. I enjoy going to the doctors because of that.
May 23, 2024
Well, I was with the nurse and the doctor came and get her out. I was waiting for 10 minutes. When they came back, the nurse says, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, for when the doctor come, he didn't care. He says that he had only one nurse and, well, tough.
May 23, 2024
Way too busy, used to be easy and quick now doctor isn't available and hurried
May 20, 2024
Dr. Galbreath soothed my fears about memory issues. I realized after speaking with him, how much stress had affected me
May 16, 2024
I like this doctor.do it good job.very professiona.
May 13, 2024
Hi, I really like Dr. Gregory Galbreath. He seemed very knowledgeable and very helpful and very thorough. I do would like to point out that the office staff, the initial people you meet, maybe they could be a little more fun. They seem like they might hate their job. Just saying, you know, we can all (INAUDIBLE). The LVN that helped me seemed very sweet. She seemed to take a long time, but other than that, everything was amazing. Thank you.
May 06, 2024
Everything they did for me was good.
May 06, 2024
Dr. Galbreath has an excellent bedside manner. I feel very comfortable talking to him and I appreciate the time he takes to listen to me. I highly recommend him.
May 02, 2024
Pleasant
May 01, 2024
This is (PHI removed). Not only am I waiting for them to give me the appointment, but everything is fine and thank you very much for the attention that you and the doctors and those who are there at the receptionist take, God bless you, goodbye.
May 01, 2024
Everyone was very friendly and made me feel at ease !
April 25, 2024
Dr. Galbreath explained every detail of my blood work and provided advice where needed. He is very personable and didn't make me filled rushed. I was seen in a timely manner.
April 19, 2024
Yes, Dr. Galbreath has been my primary care physician for over 10 years now. And then (name removed), I knew her, his RN, I knew her back with Dr. (name removed), in fact. But Dr. Galbreath is always on top of things. I really don't have to wait long for him. Now I was going out of... I had to reschedule my appointment a couple of times. Once, it was due to he wasn't going to be there and one time it was mine. So (name removed) in the office, she's a sweetheart, she called me and got me in because they had booked me out until June. And she got me in in a little space that was there and that worked out perfectly. I'm very, as I get older, as I age, I'm bringing everything in, all my appointments and stuff to be close by, within a five-mile radius, hopefully. So my driving and stuff like that. So I'm just completely happy. I mean, my daughter works for PIH. She's a
April 19, 2024
Dr. Galbreath and his staff is very professional, courteous, and respectful of the patient's requests and listens intently to what I had to say. I appreciate him as my physician and I would recommend him to anybody without question or hesitation. Thank you. Have a great day.
April 15, 2024
I have had the best experiences every time I go to PIH, excellent service and very friendly. Whenever they ask me if I recommend it: of course, definitely.
April 10, 2024
Dr g. Addressed to my condition immediately
April 08, 2024
This is the second time I saw Dr. Galbreath.. And both tans were an enjoyable experience. He's a very nice man and a great doctor. My regular doctor is Dr. (name removed). He's great also actually the whole staff in La Mirada is great.
April 08, 2024
This appointment is much better than the previous ones, I am satisfied with the communication of the appointment, thank you
March 26, 2024
Dr. Galbreath is amazing. Unfortunately, it's so hard to get in with so many new patients, so I think you need to hire on more doctors so that we don't have to wait a month to get an appointment. I had to go to urgent care because I could not get an appointment with anyone to see a doctor when I was sick two weeks ago. Thank you.
March 26, 2024
Dr/ Galbreath is excellent doctor.
March 13, 2024
Yes, the provider is a very good provider and he listens to me real good and he takes care of me really good and I love to go to him. He's great. Yeah.
March 07, 2024
My regular doctor is impossible to get an appointment with other than an appointment that is scheduled 3-6 months in advance. Her office suggested I go to urgent care. I had an issue with my left ear and other than discomfort was feeling good. At urgent care, It was a two hour wait sitting with folks who were REALLY sick. I left and called my doctor's office/nurse line and was referred to Dr. Galbreath. He had a cancellation and was able to fit me in the next day. I appreciate they saw me even though I am not his regular patient. He referred me to an ENT and I am not all that certain I will be able to get an appointment in a reasonable time frame given my past experience with PIH.
March 06, 2024
Dr. Galbreath is great, spends enough time with you, listens to your questions, answers questions, although his front office staff is not very friendly at all.
March 04, 2024
Dr Galbreath and his staff were efficient and courteous and I had a good conversation about my health. I'm very satisfied.

Very pleased with excellent service
February 14, 2024
My only com[laint with this office is the phone system and not being able to talk to your physician's nurse or at least the actual office instead of a phone bank.
February 12, 2024
The doctor explained all the problems very well. I have received a lot, I will help, yes, I do recommend it, thank you very much, okay.

Dr. Galbreath's assistant (name removed) showed intelligence, care, and professionalism.
January 12, 2024
Dr Galbreath is an outstanding doctor and has great communication skills. He was able to break down what he thought the issue was with me and the best course of action. He got me a referral for an orthopedic doctor promptly. I would (and have) recommend him to many of my friends and trust him with my family.!
January 11, 2024
He listened carefully to my questions and understood my concerns about a couple of my health issues and provided feedback. The office staff is always courteous and caring.
January 04, 2024
I think Dr. Galbreath should have ordered blood tests, seen the results, then prescribe medication if necessary. He wants me to take Gabapetin, even though he doesn't know what my blood work is showing.
January 03, 2024
I am treated with compassion and care.
December 13, 2023
Medical assistant and PCP were very kind and unhurried with me.
December 08, 2023
