Daly, Lanval J MD

Dr. Lanval Daly is pleasant and has a good bedside manner. He was my OB this past year for my first pregnancy. I would NOT recommend this doctor. To anyone. I had a healthy pregnancy with no complications. But then Dr. Daly told me that my baby was large and that I needed to be induced only 3 days after my due date (no ultrasound was ordered). My cervix was already ripening but he said I shouldn't wait. I laboured for 20 hours and pushed for 2 hours - all while Dr. Daly knew that the fetus was large for gestational age and OP. After almost a full day in labour he told me I needed a c-section. This was after my husband had seen him sleeping at the nursing station! The nurse also told us that I would be his 7TH section of the night! Without going into too much detail, there was no communication between the anesthetist and Dr. Daly and I subsequently felt him make my incision!! I was screaming out "I can hear you cutting me" and the procedure continued. I was then given some VERY strong medication which only kicked in when they were suturing me back up. I was traumatized. Dr. Daly came to see me ONCE in postpartum and didn't even acknowledge the incident. He discharged me early with a fever and low hemoglobin. Two days later I was in emerg with a ruptured seroma which had formed behind my incision site. I was back and forth to emerg half a dozen times in the first 6 weeks of my son's life. I was on several antibiotics and narcotics during this time. I had recurring infections in the wound (which might have something to do with the fact that Dr. Daly decided not to give me prophylactic antibiotics as is routine with any invasive surgery) and required a homecare nurse to change and pack my wound every day. The worst part is - Dr. Daly NEVER called to follow-up. I had to call him to make an appointment which was useless. I ended up going to an OB at a different hospital and thank God they knew what they were doing. I am writing this because I do not want another woman to go through what I went through. Find another doctor.

I went to see Dr. Daly at a very vulnerable time in our family. My wife had just returned from an overseas university, with such pain!!! The cause had eluded a number of doctors, including Nicholas P. Of North York gen. In fact, my wife got misdiagnosed once (same pain) and operated upon at humber river hosp - no relief!

Daly did not rush to any conclusion, though his suspicion was correct. He ordered a second test, which happened same day. In all, successful surgery was done, wife is now pain free! Awesome work Dr. Daly!

I saw Dr Daly for my first child and will be seeing him for my current pregnancy as well. Wait is long, but he has a very calm and reassuring demeanor and always made me feel comfortable.
He also delivered my son. I would recommend

Recently my wife went to see this doctor because she had a cyst in her ovary. He didn't explain that according to the last ultrasound the cyst was gone until he finished the internal exploration. He never explained to my wife why she required an internal exploration and never asked for permission to do it. The internal exploration was poorly executed, rough and non necessary.
He made my wife feel that she was lying about her problems and that her symptoms were fake.
Also, when my wife asked a question, he was acting like my wife was ignorant or something. Who the h*** this guy think he is?
Right now my wife feels like she was sexually abused by this butcher. We are thinking of going to the authorities because his actions were nonprofessional.
Beware of going to this guy!!!

I have been a patient of Dr. Daly's for over 20 years and I couldn't trust anyone more. He is kind, considerate, respectful, gentle and a master at his craft.

I had severe fibroids that were treated by Dr. Daley. He is an amazing surgeon! My operation turned out to be more complex than anticipated, yet Dr.Daley was careful to preserve my reproductive ability. Most doctors would not have been as diligent.

I would recommend Dr. Daly any day. He makes me feel very comfortable and is very knowledgeable in his field. He treated my fibroids and we discussed everything before and after surgery thoroughly. I am still seeing him.

Out of all the specialist that I saw regarding my fibroids and child birth, he made me feel most comfortable and safe in my decisions. Him and his staff always respond promptly in caring manner.

I have referred him to others.

I was his patient. I had two kids. I must say that Dr Daly is a really good, caring doctor. Very down to earth also.

Would highly recommend this doctor

Very caring, detail oriented and responsive to patient needs
