Beth Galla, MD

Dr. Galla was raised in Palo Alto, CA but fell in love with NC during her undergraduate years at Duke University where she graduated Magna Cum Laude and With Distinction. While at Duke she had the privilege of running on the Blue Devils Women's Track Team and was a member of the school record setting 4 x 800 and Distance Medley Relay teams.

She then received her M.D. from Wake Forest University and went on to do her pediatric residency at the Children's Medical Center of Dallas/UT Southwestern.

Dr. Galla then returned to the West Coast where she spent 11 years as a primary care pediatrician and as a hospitalist at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital. She married Matt Galla and together they had 3 boys in under 4 years.

Yearning to return to NC, the Gallas moved cross-country in 2012 and settled in Holly Springs. Dr. Galla cherished 9 years practicing at Oberlin Road Pediatrics in Raleigh. She became very fond of her loyal patients and wished for the ability to spend more time with each family.

She ventured out on her own to practice medicine with a focus on time: Time to listen, time to ask and answer questions, time to really think about problems, time to return texts or phone calls promptly, time to relay test results, time to speak with specialists, and time to be there for patients and their families when they need it.

Dr. Galla serves as the Medical Director of Hilltop Home in Raleigh, a private, non-profit Intermediate Care Facility which provides residential care to 22 children with severe developmental disabilities.
