Julio G Davalos's Online Review Report Card

My sister at 24 years old have been battling an infection for almost a year now, six weeks ago she was scheduled with Davalos to have a kidney stone removed, instead he put in a stent and claims he never found a stone. He told us 4 weeks with the stent and he still hasn’t called or scheduled to remove it or even to schedule an appointment to see how she’s progressing. She has been to the ER twice for fevers caused by infection. She is being admitted again today for a midline because her body is now resistant to all other antibiotics. When we call he refuses our calls and tells his employees to tell us he will call when he’s scheduled the removal. He spoke to her ONCE since the surgery and was very aggressive and dismissive, saying “I already told you this is a side effect of the stent”. An infection that put her in danger of sepsis is a side effect of a stent??? This person is dangerous and should not be allowed to have anyone in his care.

My daughter has been suffering from fevers and pain since he performed surgery last month and has not been able to get an appointment with him. When she calls his office to let him know she’s having a bad reaction to the procedure he performed, she gets told to go to the ER. He has not called to check on her even after she alerted him of her emergency visits. We had to get another doctor to prescribe antibiotics because he’s too busy or careless. We’ve been forced to find another doctor to look into her case because of his negligence. One of her ER visits she was in sepsis, it’s become a life threatening issue and he’s unavailable.

Every time I just happen to deal with their staff it is just terrible and it makes the doctor really look poor. Just a follow up on my antibiotic medication is an issue in itself with supporting staff to provide adequate assistance for post-surgery care

El mejor doctor!!!! en el area de Maryland. Tube 3 cirugias de kidney stones. Es el mejor muy recomendado, el explica lo que realmente esta pasando. Toda mi vida le que quedare agradecida por las cirugias Dr. Davalos is the best doctor! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

Yup. Cost me bunch of pain, about 3 weeks more than necessary and an extra emergency room visit. Didn't read his own report - didn't act on it. If he gets pushed, immature, defensive, very un-doctor like.

Misleading. I recommend looking elsewhere.

wonderful service

Poor follow-up and, by my estimation, sloppy and uncaring when challenged. Very defensive and dismissive. My wife and me have had medical issues so are not newbies to the whole process, and have never experienced what this guy put me through. Let the fact I am not including more details speak volumes about how I feel. Left me hanging. I now seeking another urologist to get away from this guy.

I went to Dr. Davalos with kidney stone issues after two surgeries with a different local urologist where not only were my stones not successfully removed but actually made worse by displacing one into a position that caused a severe blockage resulting in a perforated ureter and a nephrostomy tube. Everything from the first contact was top notch. The office staff recognized my need to be seen rapidly and worked me in. Dr. Davalos performed PCNL surgery in his office surgical suite and I went home the same day stone free! I am a nurse and enthusiastically recommend Dr. Davalos!

Large stone gone as promised, minimal recovery time
