Graves Julia MD

I really like Dr. Graves. She listens to me, takes the time necessary to address my questions, explains things so I can understand, and doesn’t summarily dismiss concerns the way some physicians do. Her office staff, though, is really bad. More than once either the wrong lab test was performed, or it was performed incorrectly. Her assistant does not respond to emails or requests for medication refills. Baylor’s Follow My Health website is just awful, too. Maybe the assistant hates it as much as I do and that is why she doesn’t respond to emails. Although I like Dr. Graves and do not want to change physicians again, if the office management does not improve I might have to. Staying with this group brings her rating down. With a good staff, I would give Dr. Graves four or maybe even five stars.

Dr. Graves is everything a primary doctor should be. Equally as professional as she is personable, she’s all-​around one of the best doctors I’ve had. Moving to Dallas, I did not expect to find a primary physician that would match the close, trustful relationship I built for years with my doctor from home. After all, finding a match for a long-​term primary physician can be likened to finding the right mate. Both are important decisions that take lots of time, patience and a whole lot of getting to know one another. Luckily Unilocal directed me to Baylor Family Medicine where I tried out Dr. Graves for an initial visit. She was great. One time was all it took.
Aside from her decades of experience and impressive credentials, she stands out among the rest because she takes her time to get to know your unique preferences and personality and then assesses your needs accordingly. I truly appreciate her hands-​on approach and how she first advocates healthy lifestyle changes before prescribing any unnecessary medications. Of course, given her location and years of experience, she is constantly on a busy patient schedule. This means that once in a while she may be running behind, but it’s really only because she takes her time with each individual. All around I don’t dread going to the doctor as much as I used to, and Dr. Graves’ warm personality and comforting background have a whole lot to do with that fact!

I love Dr Julia Graves. She has been my primary doctor for 10 years, I see her when I am ill and for annual checkups and gyno exams. She is extremely thorough and not an over prescriber. She has recommended natural remedies a few times that have been successful and her thoroughness has found a couple unexpected things (like high cholesterol at age 28, which we resolved naturally).
I havebt ever had trouble getting in, even same day though I have had to wait to be seen a few times but I think that jut happens and doesn’t reflect on Dr Graves.
I also like Dr Veerasami who I have seen a couple times when I needed a doctor same day and Graves wasn’t available.

Dr. Julia Graves is a fine internist. I had never received a personal call from the doctor informing me that my test results were normal, but this was what happened after my first visit with her. She answered all of my questions and shared with me some details of her own health choices, and her knowledge and experience helped me decide which path was right for me. I will definitely be seeing her again. (Note: her office is now located on McKinney & Fitzhugh).
