David L Galbut & Associates PA

This review is only about the dr Galbut office employees. Eaach person of them is giving different answers. The most unprofessional, unskilled, unpleasant even rude people. Why they calling and confirming the appointment time day before if it is just a big BS. It is so difficult to call same day of appointment 1 or 2 hrs before? Then, it is more accurate to know if is any delay. This is so stupid to seat in the waiting room 2-3 hrs. The doctor is amazing and too good to kick .... office employees to do better job.

Third time I've been to Dr. Galbut's doctor's office in the past month. Appointments are normally around 10am. First two visits I was home by 2:30p and 3:30p respectfully. Today I've yet to leave the waiting room and it's already been three hours. What is the point of making appointment times when there's a zero % chance of honoring them within reason especially when all you're doing is giving information that can be done over a phone call (at their convenience)? The sad part is this seems to be the norm in Miami. The positive is the quality of medical treatment met expectations.

Dr. Galbut does not take short cuts. He reviews data directly (looks at the films himself, not just the notes left by others). He is thorough and understandable in his explanations. He is patient and compassionate. He makes decisions based upon what is best for the patient's lifestyle and is a genuinely good person with excellent medical skills. In a field were choices can be life or death, he is worth the wait and my parents, who have the sum of zero patience combined have no qualms waiting for this man referred to as their angel. By God's grace and Dr. Galbut's talents, my father's life and my mother's life were saved. Prior to meeting Dr. Galbut, a surgeon at different practice/hospital botched a surgery and collapsed one of his carotid arteries. This caused a stroke which landed my father in Aventura Hospital where we soon met Dr. Galbut. Galbut guided us through his stroke recovery, explained his rationale for each decision and method and continues to check in on his health nearly 10 YEARS later. My mother, who was overall "healthy" suffered a heart attack about 6 months after Galbut saved Dad's life. The hospital she was at recommended open heart surgery. After Galbut reviewed the films personally, he made an alternate recommendation. She was transferred to Aventura. He referred her to a cardiologist and recommended an angiogram. (He didn't not suggest a surgery that he could have done - he suggested what was best for her situation.) She has no "zipper" and no stents and is doing great 9 years later. Dr. Galbut will always be near and dear to us.

If you want your time to be wasted, you must come to this place. Every body is scheduled for the same time. When you get here there is a long line of people waiting in the hallway and the clinic is not open yet . When someone finally come to open up then who was there earlier is seen 4 hours later if you are lucky.!

Dr. Galbut is an excellent surgeon. He has excellent bedside ethics and he cares about his patients physical and emotional health. I thank God for Dr. Galbut.
