Dr Cammaratta has a 5 star rating for his skill as a surgeon but his excellent communication skills begin at the first appointment. He explains the physiology of the problem, outlines the options with and without surgery, short and long term pros and cons of each.
Patiently he will go over the options answering repeat questions with no pressure at all.
His work is pure skill married to art.
Thank you Dr C for my right shoulder that looks soo fabulous and feels strong 3 months after the repair.
Ready to dance and play the drums.
