Dr. Robert Galamaga, DO

Dr. Robert Galamaga is a board-certified internal medicine physician. His medical philosophy revolves around the idea that a holistic, integrative approach is the nucleus of optimized general health and that it best serves his patients’ needs.

Dr. Robert grew up with a great level of respect for medicine. He was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and spent many days in and out of clinics and hospitals until the age of 14. This fueled his desire, and ultimate reality, of becoming a practicing physician.

He generally encourages his patients to follow Paleo, keto, vegetarian, or gluten-free diets, all with careful monitoring. He knows these diets can be challenging to follow, so he likes to discuss lifestyle and nutritional goals with his patients before they start.

Out of the office, Dr. Robert enjoys traveling, cycling, running, and playing soccer with his wife. He comes from a Navy family and is familiar with treating the many issues that veterans and active-duty military members face. In the future, he hopes to develop a model of healthcare that promotes patient wellness and enthusiasm to achieve optimal health.

He graduated from medical school at Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and has completed multiple fellowships in transfusion, blood banking, hematology, and oncology. He often provides consultative services for chemotherapy, immunotherapy, oncolytic drug, and hematologic treatments, as well.

Is Grilling Healthy? (+ Grilling Recipes)

May 22, 2021 by Katie Wells

I’m a fan of summer. The beach, the outdoors, more sunshine… not to mention backyard cookouts featuring our favorite mouth-watering BBQ on the grill. While I love a good barbecue (I am a Southern girl, after all), grilling recipes don’t always make for the healthiest meal. For one, most of us grill more meat than …

Why You Should Never Eat Vegetable Oil or Margarine

September 26, 2020 by Katie Wells

Aside from whole grains, vegetable oils and margarine are some of the most misunderstood and over-recommended foods in the health community. You’ve probably heard these referred to as “heart-healthy oils,” a good alternative to those “artery-clogging saturated fats.” Only one problem…. science doesn’t back these claims up! Vegetable oils are found in practically every processed …

Natural Heat Protectant Spray for Hair

Let’s face it: no matter how au naturale we are, most of us still want to walk out of the house with bouncy, gorgeous hair. Unfortunately, this effect most often requires the help of damaging heating tools like blow dryers, curling irons, and straighteners. If you’re no stranger to these tools, you probably use some …

Why Plastic Pollution Is Everyone’s Problem

Why I Eat My Sunscreen to Protect Skin From the Inside Out

April 9, 2019 by Katie Wells

As warmer weather approaches (yay!), it’s time to start thinking about digging out the kids’ clothes, bathing suits, and flip flops. This is also my cue to start getting my skin ready for the sun.

8 Fun Ways to Exercise As a Family

I remember how easy it was to “work out” in college. For one thing, I was walking miles each week just to get to class, and whenever I got stressed and needed a mental break from homework, I could just go to the gym on campus (for free) and get a workout in. I didn’t …

We are nearing the time of year when we make lists of all the things we have resolved to change (and which two-thirds of us will fizzle out on within the first month).

For years, my own health journey to finally getting a diagnosis of autoimmune thyroid disease came to a screeching halt because I couldn’t find a doctor in my area who understood thyroid disease and I couldn’t get a referral to a specialist unless I went through a doctor.
