I came off of a visit at UMD with very bad communication and I was rather shaken up. Dr. Cameron was such a good communicator and I came away with total faith in his expertise and much more grounded about my condition.

Dr Cameron explained my heart condition and provided an illustration of the heart and showed the positions of my previous by-pass procedure. First time it was ever explained to me that I could understand.

Dr Cameron is great!

Dr. Cameron is kind and patient and extremely knowledgeable. He was very patient while listening to my medical history,as it is complicated. I have not had the best outcomes in the recent past addressing this particular medical issue with a few other providers and it is very stressful for me. Dr. Cameron cared enough to hear me and did not brush aside my concerns and offered his expert medical advice, which I plan to follow. For me, that is absolutely priceless. He is the best.

Dr. Cameron is the best! I was dreading this appointment because I was terrified of needing more heart surgery. Well, I do need It, but he is so calm, knowledgeable, caring, and respectful that I felt tremendously relieved after the appointment.
