About Dr. Julio Menocal

Dr. Menocal was born in Havana, Cuba, in 1958 and was raised in Latin America, where he completed his medical degree at the prestigious Pontificia Universidad Javeriana Bogot? Facultad de Medicina in Colombia. In 1982, he moved to the United States and completed his internship and residency in Family Medicine at the Georgetown University/Providence Hospital program in Washington, DC. Board Certified in Family Medicine, Dr. Menocal began practicing medicine in 1985 in Frederick, which he still calls home. He initially joined Drs. Hickey and Riddick and later led the expansion of the group into Parkview Medical Group. Dr. Menocal noticed that patients who were underinsured or uninsured lacked access to equal healthcare services. In 2006, he decided to start a practice catering to these patients. He also devotes many hours to the care of adults and the elderly with Medicare and continues to perform house calls when needed. For the past 14 years, his primary focus has been vaccinating children enrolled in the MCHIP program in the Frederick community. Menocal Family Practice has administered over 110,000 free vaccines to children in the area. Dr. Menocal serves on several boards and received the Outstanding Clinical Preceptor award from the University of Maryland School of Medicine in 2014 (Alpha Omega Alpha). He continues to be a preceptor for other medical colleges and universities. He has earned numerous citations for his work, including the Lord Nickens Community Service Award from the Human Relations Commission, the Good Samaritan Award from Frederick Memorial Hospital, and the Peace Crafter Award from CALM, a nonprofit focused on mediation. He was also named one of the ?People to Watch? in the 2016 Frederick Magazine. Dr. Menocal has been a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians since 1985 and the Maryland Academy of Family Physicians. He is fluent in both Spanish and English.
