Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Camerota recently successfully performed laparoscopic hernia repair surgery on me. He took the time to explain everything in detail and answered all my questions.The surgical team at St Peters is top tier.

Good surgeon but…….
After surgery lack of attention led to rehospitalization.

From start to finish my Hiatal surgery was handled very professionally by Dr. Camerota and his staff. He took the time to explain the pre-op tests and the operation in understandable terms and my recovery was almost pain free. I have no problem recommending him and his staff to all who have need of this type surgical procedure. Tom H

Doctor Camerota performed the newest robotic laparoscopic surgery on my husband for his hernia. He is a very gifted and skilled surgeon in his field. The entire experience was from start to finish was seamless! His office is great and the hospital St Peter’s he is affiliated with gave excellent care. Thank you to everyone from the Aydins!

Hiatal hernia surgery
I found Dr Camerota’s office staff to be exceptional. They answer any question and no matter how many times I called they were always cheerful and never treated me like I was bothering them. Dr Camerota explained in detail the surgical procedure. He didn’t rush me out and answered all my questions. In the hospital he came in before surgery to assure me everything would be okay. Follow up appointment I was told exactly what to expect. I was also given a copy of the surgical report.

Dr. Camerota operated on me for extensive hernia repair. He was all one could ask for in a medical professional: Extremely competent; communicates well and courteously; answers all questions and has a calming manner in his relationship with his patients. As I am now up and about and healed, what more could I ask for - oy, yeah. His staff is helps patients with information and suggestions, etc. - a set of traits not often found in medical offices these days.

I got a hernia fixed with Dr. Camerota's help. Fixing worked out as good as I could imagine. U should check in here if u are thinking of a hernia fix and ur insurance covers this option. Robot surgery seems very good for a less complicated healing time and operation was in the morning and out in the afternoon on surgery day. I got by with simple over the counter pain medicine for a few days and was back to work at the work from home desk job in two days. Remarkable in my understanding. One week later I moved some snow and could sit up and out of bed very well. Two weeks later, the slice spots were almost all healed and I was shoveling snow. Waited three weeks though till some heavier lifting just to play it safe. I read about robot surgery on many hernia websites and searched for a hernia doctor in the insurance company doctor finder. Scheduling at website was easy, but u need to use the real phone to communicate with the office. No text app.

This was my second surgery by Dr. Camerota. He removed my gallbladder 15 years ago, and now surgically repaired an abdominal hernia. I returned to Dr. Camerota due to his excellence in procedures, using laparoscopic and robotic techniques. He explains all procedures with a common language that the patient can understand with the first visit, pre-surgery, as well as post surgery recovery. He is an excellent surgeon and a professional individual.

What can I say about Dr Camerota and his staff except excellent excellent excellent. No one would look forward to the types of surgical procedures I had, but if anyone made you feel confident comfortable and well cared for it was the office of Dr Camerota and his assistants Richa and Hazima. They were with me every step of the way answering questions, I'm sure I asked repeatedly. This is a wonderful practice that I would highly recommend. The pre and post-op care I received at St Peters was extraordinary. Thank you to all.

Had a rather large hernia operated on three days ago. Never used any pain killers and 3 days later I’m almost back to normal. Dr Camerota did a fantastic job. Also , I can’t praise enough the entire staff I encountered at St. Peter’s Hospital.

Dr. Andrew Camerota was very professional, explained what was going on with Ralph J. Casciano. I am very pleased with him, his staff, and would highly recommend him as a surgeon. He did Laparoscopic sigmoid colectomy on my husband and saved his life. We are so great full that he was Ralph's doctor. He took the time to explain the surgery in detail to us.
