I went to Dr Kamler for a finger injury. The staff were very professional and he was excellent. He took care of my finger with precision and it healed great because of his care. I would highly recommend this doctor.

Worst office experience I ever had with a doctor. After a 2 month wait, they didnt show up for an appt, then said they would no longer accept new patients. When i said I wasnt a new patient, they admitted they lost most of my info and still had to treat me as a new patient. They also had incorrect information on me. When I asked why they cancelled an appt without telling me (I took off half a day and showed up), they admitted trying a phone number they transposed incorrectly, but not trying to send me a letter or contact my insurance co. Rude tome, lack of concern for the inconvenience their multiple errors cost me, etc. DONT GO

Dr. Kamler performed surgery on my wrist in 2005.His bedside manner is excellent. During all of my visits I always felt as through I had his undivided attention, I did not feel rushed and he put whatever "technical terms" into layman terms so I had a clear understading of what was going on. I recently injured both of my wrists in a car accident and will be going back to him.

If you want a doctor who is really concerned for you and who will spend the time you need, this is the doctor for you.His new arrangement with a medical group has made it more difficult to see him, and has created a longer wait, but he is worth it.
