Good
Dr Juan Gallegos is simply the best. He gives me the assurance that everything is going to be ok
Dr. Gallegos-Orozco was amazing. He came into the exam room already knowing my medical history and problems (I was impressed he did his homework). He took the time to explain things, answer questions and ease any concerns I had. He has great bedside manner- probably some of the best I've ever seen.
Dr Gallegos has been kind and understanding. I would like to speak to someone about other departments, please and thank you.
Dr. Gallegos is honest, kind, patient, and obviously very good at what he does. I always feel nervous going in to my appointment, and feel reassured when I leave.
Dr. Gallegos was very kind. He showed personal interest in me and my family. He seemed very knowledgeable and determined to find the source of my issues.
I had a good and professional experience
Outstanding help, with the Doctor being well informed about the content of my medical history sent to him by my previous Doctor.
Always very impressed with their knowledge and consideration of me
Show me concern about my heath and always friendly
Great physician.
Dr. Gallegos is one of my favorite providers.
Good
Dr. Gallegos was kind, considerate, and had a plan ready to go for me. The lab orders were put in quickly which I appreciate very much. He was apologetic when the camera malfunctioned on his end. It didn't bother me though. I was comforted in that he knew why I was there what would be best and beneficial for me, let me know what to expect in the future, and what our next few steps would be.
My Doctor was able to answer our questions and helped show pictures of my scan I had completed earlier. He also helped clarify about my next appointment. I also was informed about which Covid 19 vaccine was recommended based on my current circumstances. (I forgot to ask my doctor about Ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine, but during our visit, my Doctor did help me know which of the 3 versions I should have with regards to the vaccine.)
What I especially like about Dr. Juan Gallegos-Orozco is that he explains and shows me exactly what is happening with my condition. He talks with me so that I know what the best course of healing action is required. Because of this I understand what I need to do to keep my condition stable. I have a strong test and faith in him!
very good , easy to talk to and understand.
Dr Gallegos is the best
Doctor went into a good amount of detail in layman's terms. Felt like I completely understood what was going on and what was needed and why.
Dr. G's kindness and professionalism is exceptional and he rubs off on his staff and vise versa. In other words, they have a fabulous virus running rampant in there.! :)
Dr. Gonzalez-Orozco, is a much better doctor than my previous liver specialist. he actually listened to me, and his first impression opened the door for trust. The former dr, had me waiting to die and damaged the little trust I had. Dr. Gonzalez-Orozco is helping rebuild that trust, even after one visit. Thanks to Dr. Incze for the recommendation.
Dr. Gallegos is great to talk with and thoroughly explains his treatment recommendations in an easily understood manner.
Dr. Gallegos is an excellent provider and wonderful human being.
Dr Gallegos was wonderful! He listened to all of my crazy questions. He answered each of them and he also listened to my mom and answered her questions!! BEST DOCTOR EVER!!
excellent visit
First doctor that gave me real answers and hope. Great bedside manner.
Best Doctor ever. He saved my life (literally).
Dr. Gallegos cares. That's it. He spends as much time as needed, with me, until all my questions are answered and we both feel good about our visit. He's great. I did not have that experience with somebody else who is no longer there. [NAME REMOVED]
I asked about results but was informed my primary care physician would discuss with me.
I've been a patient with Dr. Gallegos for almost 5 years now, and I'm exceptionally pleased with his approach to my care and his overall partnership in working with me. I couldn't have made a better choice!
Dr. Gallegos listened carefully to everything I said, took careful notes, and seemed genuinely concerned. I felt no judgment.
The doctor explained the science and medicine extremely well - so well, in fact, that I understand what's going with my condition and what we can do to improve the health outcome.
All aspects were good and easy
Dr. Gallegos is an excellent provider.He shows concern, interest and empathy for the patient.It's a privilege to have him as my liver doctor.
Dr. Gallegos took time to listen to all my questions and answered them thoroughly.
I brought in a list of questions. This was my first real visit with Dr. Gallegos. He was extremely tentative and showed great care and detail in his responses. I left with a happy and open heart for my future in his care. I'm very comfortable with his opinions and knowledge thus far. Thank you :)
Always outstanding.
Dr. Gallegos is an excellent provider. I wish all doctors were like him.
I greatly appreciated the time Dr. Chandna spends explaining results and treatment options. Additionally, his follow up is exceptional. I've had multiple tests lately and he always leaves comments, notes, or next steps in the mychart system so that I know what to do next.
Love the people at the U of U medical staff
always informed me about my options
Dr. Gallegos is a compassionate Doctor who cares deeply for his patients. He uses all diagnostic tools to determine any changes in my liver function. He is very concerned about any possibility of liver cancer and monitors so closely that should this be, he will be know immediately and have treatment options available.
Dr. Gallegos is a great provider.He's very caring, professional and a great human being. He shows interest in every concern the pt has.My husband has recommended Dr. Gallegos to people that need care in their liver.
Everything from start to finish with my transplant has been excellent!

Dr. Gallegos-Orozco is a very caring and compassionate listener. It was very apparent the knowledge and expertise he possesses as a Physician and person.
