While Dr. Galima has been practicing medicine for more than eight years, HealthTap is his first foray into virtual healthcare. He said, “HealthTap is my first telemedicine opportunity.

Dr. Galima is clearly a man of many interests. Why the new interest in virtual healthcare? He noted what inspires him to provide virtual care on HealthTap: “A lot of people were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Not everyone has the means or capabilities to visit a doctor’s office in person. Also, not everyone has health insurance. I am grateful to provide a service and join a community of physicians with the same goal to serve.”
