This is the worst Dr. ever, I think maybe he got his license from quack. The staff was very rude and unfriendly , they do not return phone calls.Never again.

Dr. Amato is a great thorough doctor. He’s very polite, courteous and nice. He really takes care of my health problems. Dr. Amato is highly recommended. I would recommend him to my family and friends. He follows up on all my test, etc, etc. His nurse Jennifer is a great thorough nurse. The sun rise and shine on her. She follows up on my phone calls, health questions and test results in a timely manner. Jennifer is a jewel. Mobile need more nurses like Jennifer.

He requested.. test after test.. after test. Then the nurse calls, says they did the wrong test, wants me to come back. Bills my insurance for the test anyway. A test that was not recommended. Then refuses to help rectify the billing situation. And we still have no diagnosis.

This is the worst Dr. ever, I think maybe he got his license from Walmart. The staff was very ruled and unfriendly , they do not return phone calls. I will never go to this office again.

Little slow with test results. Some office staff is snippy. The doctor himself is exceptional. This man listens to what you tell him.

He is the best doctor in Mobile, patient and willing to listen eye to eye whatever you have to say. Will also get you an answer for whatever ailment you may be suffering from if he doesn't know right off.

I don't go for the office workers only for the doctor and he is excellent. He and his nurse take time to listen, examine me, look at me, request testing or give me referals and always follow-up with my labs. He is very good.
