If you are the type of person who needs that "warm and fuzzy" feeling from a doctor office, this is not the place for your family. We have not had a favorable experience with this office. I have never felt as though my daughter was valued as a patient; she was just another number to get through the day. Two-star rating (as opposed to one) due to the minimal/short wait times before appointments.

I has a bad experience today with the receptionist over the phone. I contacted the office to fix a misunderstanding of the services needed for my child. The receptionist refused to listen and talked over me as I tried to explain the situation. I understand she does not work in the back office but she needed to hear what I was saying to know I needed to speak with the referral specialist and not the nurse.

Rather than listening, she asked me to hold and sent me to the nurses voicemail. I have never experienced this at this office. I work at a doctors office as a therapist so I am fully aware of the process of referrals, I am not saying I know everything, but I knew what I was requesting. If this lady would have listened rather than being rude I could have had a better experience and she would not have talked to me twice in one day. I'm disappointed in the way she handled this. I was able to get ahold of the referral specialist and she assisted me with everything.

Dr v or dr Villarreal is the reason we go. I couldn't give him high enough praise. Also dr Gallagher is amazing. I'm on some Raleigh parenting groups and you should see the raving reviews he gets from moms and dads. If I could I would post them here. It's evidence based medicine, but Dr v always LISTENS first. For like a long time. He believes in mom instincts. I was worried about something and he just told me to come in because I was worried. It ended up being nothing too severe but he always believes and listens and that's worth it's weight in gold.

This place will not give you the help you need. No one will listen to your problem or be comfortable to help. They just want your money. My daughter has add and the therapist has recommended medication. We has turning all the paperwork and wanting for a call the get the resources that we need. It never call and when we call back they say the doctor is not "comfortable" to give medication. After all the work we have done (at least five appointment) and the money we paid no help it provide.

They say that no one in this office feels comfortable to help. Dr. Kathleen Gallagher has ask for the paperwork and say will be in contact with the therapist. They nurse call and only ask did she signs out the note and say they will be to problem but after all the work and wait we got a simple NO saying she's not comfortable and no one will. This place is horrible and I don't recommend any one go.
