ZocDoc • Forefront Dermatology
Dr. Camara is one of the best doctors I have seen. She is not only knowledgeable, but she is patient, compassionate and extremely kind. So many times patients can feel rushed and made to feel "less than important" to the doctor,but we have to go for help. Sometimes we have no choice due to insurance, location, etc..I wish there were more doctors like her! My appt. was Friday, 2/22/19 JMshow more
