Dr. Vitaly Zholudev, MD

On February 19th, I had an appointment with Dr. Zholudev to discuss recurring Kidney stones that I frequently get. The medical assistant placed me in a room to wait for the Dr. When he went there, withing less than 5 minutes, he moved me around 3 different rooms, he did not talk to me about the reason why I was there, when I asked him questions about my condition, the answer was: (most kidneys stones are formed from the same minerals). He did not take my registrations papers to look at them, or the stone that I brought in for him to look at, I had to tell him that I bought It and that the assistant had it. When I question him about the way he was conducting my visit, he told me: you're telling me that I'm a bad Dr. you should find a different one. My respond was, I have never said that, at the same time, I'm going to look for another Dr. Dr. Zholudev, is very unprofessional

Firt visit was not too bad but...followup was terrible. Office had to change my appt. time to accommodate him which I understand but when I did get to see him, he pushed a paper into my hand saying these are results of test, said he would see me in August and rushed out. No discussion whatsoever. I discussed my concerns, based on the results of the tests he pushed into my hands, with my primary care dr. I told him what happened and he explained the results but agreed that, while there was nothing life threatening on the report as of now, the dr. should have taken time to at least have said that and not leave me in the dark. What I read was of real concern to me and my PC said it will have to be watched. If I can find a way to change drs., I will.

Horrible and unethical doctor. Very arrogant with no compassion for patient care. He rushed and did not answer any questions. Wait time was ridiculous.

Dr Vitaly Zholudev knowledgeable, compassionate, an excellent doctor.  He takes the time to answer any questions. In my experience he will always go an extra mile to help his patients and give them a comprehensive understanding of their conditions and outlook. I would recommend him to anyone I know
