This happened about a year ago at my last appointment, but it continues to bother me so I’ve decided to post a review. Around Christmas 2024 I found out I was pregnant but shortly after had a miscarriage at about 8/9 weeks along. I had filled out my pre appointment paperwork stating I was pregnant for my regular appointment here, but by the time I actually was going to the appointment I already miscarried and forgot to let them know. So when Galindo asked me about the pregnancy and I explained I miscarried, he proceeded to tell me it was “probably my fault” because I didn’t immediately call and get my thyroid medication dosage upped.

My pharmacy also reported delays due to missing prior authorization, which the office has not handled. This isn’t just an inconvenience—it’s a serious medical issue impacting my ph

I have been seeing Dr Galindo since I was 16 for an overactive thyroid for the first time I went alone and tried to open up about sudden weight gain he insulted me saying it’s my fault that I over eat too much and asked if I saw pictures of people in concentration camps he compared me to those victims a saying I’m clearing nod malnourished knowing I have a history of eating disorders and encouraged me to go back to starving myself and cutting regular meal portions in half I already barely eat due to not affording it and I don’t eat fast food I went home bawling and I don’t wanna come back
