Dr Camara is wonderful. I have the utmost respect for her and the care she delivers.
  Oct 2, 2023
Dr. Camara exudes excellence in knowledge and compassion. I am so impressed with her, she never makes you feel small or unintelligent. And, at the very end of each appointment, she ALWAY asks if you have any questions and also emphasizes if there are ANY problems day or night to get ahold of her. She's one of the most outstanding doctors I've ever encountered personally or professionally. She's truly an asset to your organization.

Dr Camara is caring, friendly and knowledgeable. Had a blood test and she responded immediately with a prescription that I needed before leaving on a vacation. She's very good and listens to my concerns.
  Sep 27, 2023
The staff was great and the doctor was very good at explaining everything to me and patiently listened to my concerns.

Thank you
  Sep 26, 2023
Dr. Camara is a jewel!!! I wish she could be my PCP - she listens and remembers what we have previously spoken of. She is smart, kind, and and caring. I wish her medical assistant would step into the waiting room and look at the person she is calling for the next appointment instead of opening the door and just calling out their name. It is insulting as a patient. It's hard enough going to a doctor; we should all be treated with respect.
  Sep 26, 2023
Dr. Camara is an outstanding physician and cardiologist. She and the staff are very responsive to me and go out of their way to respond when I have questions or health needs. The problem is Legacy's policies regarding making an appoint or getting in direct touch with the office. It's just very frustrating.
  Sep 25, 2023
Dr Camara is exceptional
  Sep 15, 2023
I waited for months to get an initial appointment but once I was seen, I was very impressed with the quality of service Dr Camara provided.
  Sep 11, 2023
I showed up at 8:15 for an 8:30 appt as instructed and the office was locked with lights off. The sign at the door says it opens at 8am. I subsequently had to wait in the hall and then rush through the paperwork, some of which was duplicate from what I completed previously online. The doctor was exceptional. The nurse was great.
  Sep 7, 2023
Spent time investigating and clarifying my questions and developing a comprehensive health plan for me both short term and strategically.

I was very pleased and impressed with Dr. Camara. I appreciated that she asked more than once if I had any questions as I was seeing her for a new medical issue.
  Aug 21, 2023
All my answers relate to Dr. Camara and her clinic.She is an incredibly kind, knowledgable, compassionate, organized, perceptive, and supportive practitioner. I trust her, rely on her, and her support and knowledge of my life (major) impacting condition and willingness to work with my choices for Treatment has been so deeply appreciated. She truly understands and Is so patient and respectful of me as a human being AND also clearly Is comfortable In her own skin. What a GEM she is.

Although the wait was longer than anticipated because Dr. Camara had an emergency, her staff kept me apprise off what was happening and what to expect. I willingly drive 30 minutes across town to receive her expert care and that of her staff.

I originally had Dr. Hamdan and he was absolutely amazing and one of the best doctors I have ever seen. I wasn't sure someone could live up to him but Dr. Camara certainly did! She came knowing my complicated history and listened with understanding of what I had gone through. She's kind and caring! I am in great hands with Dr. Camara!
  Aug 9, 2023

This visit was my first visit with Dr. Camara who will follow my case. I enjoyed meeting her and will gladly continue with Dr. Camara as my new cardiologist.
  Jun 21, 2023
I can't say enough good things about Dr. Camara. She is really great. BUT... This game of needing to make an appointment in six months is so tiring. I understand that the appointments have not been released yet, but the notion that they may be open on this date, and that you have to try to figure out when to call back is really difficult. Then, when I finally call and try to make an appointment, there are none available -- even months in advance
  Jun 14, 2023
Dr. Camara is an excellent clinician. I feel well taken care of.
  Jun 6, 2023

  Apr 25, 2023
Dr. Camara is wise, caring and very professional. She listens intently. Her mannerism exhibits kindness and caring --- plus she is extremely knowledgeable about cardiology. Her electro-physics technician, Shawn (he did the pacemaker check) was extremely smart and kind.
  Apr 24, 2023

  Mar 24, 2023
Dr. Camara takes her time in answering any questions I have, which I really appreciate nowadays since most doctors try and rush you to get to the next patient. She always listens and answers all questions that I have.
  Mar 24, 2023
Dr Camara is extremely caring and knowledgeable. She listens and encourages me to try making changes without just adding prescriptions. She's too notch with her communication and advice.
  Mar 21, 2023
Dr. Camara's nurses are very good at follow-up calls, advice, etc. I almost never talk to her - it is through them, it takes months to get an in-person appointment. She is great when I do see her.

I have and excellent rapport with these Doctors and Care Staff. Very satisfied !
  Mar 17, 2023
I was using a walker when I went in for this visit. The office doors do not have a handicapped access. Fortunately, someone opened the door for me. I thought all medical facilities needed to meet ADA requirements.
  Mar 17, 2023
Dr Camara is always interested in how I am doing. Always let's me know I can contact her at any time. It's not always easy to get my six month check up. Her calendar is very busy.

  Feb 27, 2023
I really like Dr. Camara. I feel that she listens to me and answers any questions that I might have. I never feel rushed during my appointment. This time I was asking about a specific type of female doctor that would be taking new patients. She found one in my driving area and her nurse called me that same afternoon with a name. I was so appreciative since I had been having trouble finding the right doctor. For me she went above and beyond the call of duty. High marks for Dr. Camara!
  Feb 10, 2023
Dr Camara listens carefully to my concerns, treats me respectfully and confidently, advises me appropriately on alternatives. I am very happy with her as my cardiologist.

  Jan 18, 2023
Dr. Camara is a superb cardiologist. When describing technical subjects, such as medications / possible side effects, or data points on an EKG or alternatives for medications or treatments, she gives a patient a clear explanation that is completely understandable to a lay person. She is a terrific listener, empathic, understanding and always gives clear answers and advice to questions.
