His return to his hometown saw him implement practices he learnt in Europe that not all doctors followed in terms of sanitation in order to reduce patient deaths.

[1][2] Gálvez Ginachero did his initial studies in the Colegio de San Rafael and then attended high school before he graduated after obtaining his diploma in 1882.

[2] In 1904 he married María Moll Sampelayo (d. 1934) and the couple had three children together: Gálvez Ginachero was meticulous in his medical duties and was known for having been mild-mannered with a good sense of humor.

On 15 June 1923 he was voted as the director for the Provincial Civil Hospital (in recognition of his contributions to the field of medicine) and began making significant improvements in food and the acquisition of medical supplies.

In office he undertook a series of ambitious projects for better sanitation and sought to implement a restoration of the sewer network in order to ensure greater cleanliness.

[1] Gálvez Ginachero also helped to organize Catholic Action in Málaga taking inspiration from Pope Pius XI.

[2] The formal introduction of the cause came on 19 December 2007 after the Congregation for the Causes of Saints issued the "nihil obstat" (no objections) decree and titled Gálvez Ginachero as a Servant of God.
