You should use Linear layout to set orientation attribute. Set orientation to vertical for Linear layout and set imageview attribute android:layout_gravity="center" Here is the complete code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:layout_marginTop="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:layout_marginBottom="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
         >

        <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/grid_item_image"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
           android:layout_gravity="center"
            android:src="@drawable/home" >
        </ImageView>

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/grid_item_label"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Cardiology"
            android:layout_gravity="center"
            android:layout_marginTop="5px"
            android:textSize="20sp" >
        </TextView>

    </LinearLayout>

hope it will help

In textview change 

android:layout_width="wrap_content"

to

android:layout_width="match_parent"

Simply use the layout_centerHorizontal attribute in your TextView:

<TextView
        android:id="@+id/name"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/icon"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"  
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:singleLine="true"
        android:textColor="@color/white" />
