Dr. Garlinghouse is amazing. His staff is pretty good. The follow up services from My Mi Helath Sault , and central scheduling is terrible. I would rather risk my health then give my money to My Michigan. I am suffering waiting on My Michigan due to lack of care. Not Dr. Garlinghouse’s fault.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I would selfishly not want to tell them because it’s so nice to have care that’s actually caring and not telling you you’re making it up. He literally asked me how he could help me feel better. Nobody has ever asked that. But really, I’d recommend dr garlinghouse to anyone. He is worth the drive from the Sault. 10/10.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr. Garlinghouse found issues with my X-rays that were taken a week prior at Dr. Woolovers office that he didn't catch. There's a screw going through my knee cap...and he actually looked at my leg and discussed further tests with me that I agree are necessary. I'm 11 wks post-op and my knees extremely painful. My femurs fine despite being broken still. But I feel much better after seeing Dr. Garlinghouse.
