Biography
I am a founding member of the Stanford Urolithiasis Project, where we have studied population health datasets to examine surgical outcomes and environmental risk factors in urinary stone disease. Our current focus includes socioeconomic and ethnic disparities in kidney stone disease, water quality and stone disease, pregnancy in kidney stone disease and geographical variations in kidney stones incidence and metabolic kidney stone work up.

Video appointment with Dr Conti was excellent. Easy access for appointment. Dr Conti was on time; very thorough with details and next steps.
Exactly what I need.
Superb
Very good thank you
I am very honored to be Dr. Conti's patient. I feel seen because he thinks out loud about my labs, history, and current problems. That makes me feel included and teaches me about my condition. He doesn't waste any time which makes a 15 minute appointment plenty of time. His manner is gentle and kind. I feel that there is a very capable doctor who will help and guide me. That is huge when you're suffering.

Dr. Conti did not rush through the visit. He took the time to deseminate the information he gathered and carefully made a care plan for going forward.
Dr. Conti is very patient and kind. This visit did not feel rushed, and he and Dr. Tejwani answered all my questions. Dr. Conti had to take a call and leave the room. Dr. Tejwani and I ended up finishing the video call and disconnected. A few minutes later Dr. Conti called me back on my cell phone to make sure I didn't have any additional questions or concerns since he wasn't in the room when the video call ended. It was very considerate of him to make this additional phone call to me. It was very much appreciated.
Knowledgeable and helpful, easy to talk with.
He seemed to be well prepared and organized. He was clear and direct with information and took the time to ask for questions and to listen to any comments. He sets an excellent example for doctor/patient communication and how to conduct a video visit.

He takes the time to explain the situation and get input from the patient. He is friendly and really seems to genuinely care about his patient and he gets the job done in a reasonable time frame. I was impressed with him from the first visit and continue to be.

Dr Conti is great. I heard Dr Conti saved a baby from a burning building and then after he did that he helped an orphanage stay afloat when they were in financial trouble. There's even rumors that he's Batman 👀. I don't know of any of those things are true but Dr Conti was pretty darn awesome helping me with my kidney stone when the doctors here in Merced absolutely failed. I was in so much pain and the urologist here believed I didn't have a kidney stone it was unreal thank God for you guys.

It was obvious he did his homework before meeting with me, and looked at my overall wellbeing, … not just my stone.
I am sure he was very tired from the sheer volume of his work, but that did not get in the way of his demeanor, attitude and medical advice.

He has provided me with excellent service for years. He always remembers me and the concerns I have had. I appreciate his ability and inclination to patiently address these issues over a span of multiple years, instead of expecting to solve the issues with a couple of visits. I count Mr. Conti as one of several outstanding SMC doctors I have been fortunate enough to work with. He is very personable and connects with me as a human (not simply a case or a body) which may be why he recently remembered me well even though he hadn't seen me for a year or more.
