Dr. Gerardo Enrique Carcamo, MD

I had a very bad experience with this doctor. I had a successful surgery 12 years ago. I recently went to the hospital because I was extremely ill and the hospital told me that the band had slipped. They sent me to him to have it repositioned back to where it should be. Instead he removed the device. He did not care about my future health and told me to make better choices and to but another one. He was rude and arrogant and has put me back so much after so many successful years. He said this was due to me not following up with his office, however his office is closed. This is a great detriment to my future health and he could not care less.

I was very nervous about my first visit and what to expect in deciding and checking to see if I would be a candidate for surgery. My experience with Dr. Carcamo went very well. He listened to me and all I had to say about why I was wanting surgery and all the issues I currently suffered from. He explained every thing to me very well and my road to surgery has begun and I couldn't be more excited. Here's looking to a awesome New Year!

Very rude arrogant, I don't feel comfortable talking to him or even going for follow up visits. Now I read he has hidden cameras. Woww. Last time I went to see him left with very high blood pressure. Talks to you like you aren't worth nothing. Seriously your a doctor you should be encouraging and being there for your patients. Grow up!!! I tried to switch to doctor wright but have some supposedly "contract" where they can't take each others patients lol I guess.... It should be our right as patients if we don't feel confrotable with him. I'm to the point where I'll be more than happy to switch to a lap band doctor out of town if I can't get no other doctor to see me that accepts medicaid. Lol pathetic. Sad human being lol. When I tired to ask about switching the nurses even popped attitude lol fools. He and some of the staff are just miserable I suppose. ??

Very arrogant, rude and no personality. I had been vomiting for over 24 hours and couldn't even hold water down. Concerned i called on a Saturday night his phone service. He returned my call, IRATE that I called him while he was enjoying his time out. Was told he was at a party and i called for that. Told me off. Told me to call the office on monday and hung up on me. He doesn't care about his patients health.

Imagine spending years of your life to learn how to enrich the lives of others, which this dr has done for me. If more doctors treated thier patients with straight foward approach people would be in better positions with thier health. I have been succesful the past seven years with my lapband because I learned how to use this tool. Dr carcamo has helped me every step of the way, he does care and is very positive.. The staff has always been super nice and helpful with paper work needed and scheduling appointments.

I have a procedure scheduled in 2 days, and they never called me to inform me that they had moved the procedure to a different hospital. I called them to find make sure i was still supposed to arrive at 5:30 am, that is when they told me that my procedure was at a different hospital and that it was at 9 am. had i not called i would have showed up at the wrong hospital. worse yet, they havent even sent the paperwork to the new hospital, called the new hospital an they stated that they would need 48 hrs to verify insurance. it is less than 48 hrs now before my surgery, which means i do not know the price for the facility. i am flabbergasted by their procrastination in letting patients know when things change. Waiting to see how this goes, i may end up cancelling everything.

Very Rude and disrespectful...

So far he seems to me a good dr , he told me if I wasn't a candidate for the sleeves gastrectomy that he will not put my life in risk so I like his honesty . And the ladies helping him are so nice and easy to talk to they have lots of Patients cause I don't know how to read that good they help along the way. So I'm putting my self in this dr hands in Jesus name Amen !

Dr. Carcamo has been my physician (Lap Band)for 5 years. I feel that he is honest and gets to the point! He has scolded me for not following up on a regular basis and I deserved it! If he repeats himself it's more than likely he's see many patients do the just the opposite-- again, as patients we also have commitments we must adhere to. Dr. Carcamo's follow up is fantastic.. I appreciate that a Doctor takes the time to do so and is genuine! I trust Dr. Carcamo with my health and well-being

An amazing professional. Highly skilled, attentive, and overall very effective and responsive to my needs.
