— Adventist Health ProviderMatch"Our only complaint is the clinic he works out of. Visalia Medical Clinic stinks of corporate attitude and is very unfriendly to emergency conditions, simple help and the desire/ability to treat their customers with respect."
— Vitals.com"Dr. Galindo Jr is an amazing Doctor. He is caring, compassionate as a provider and my boys who are 3 and 6 are very comfortable around him."
