Testimonials

I first saw Dr. Kamerer in early January 2017 after my doctor found a parotid tumor. It’s a shock and somewhat terrifying to realize that you have an appointment with a doctor who only does head and neck cancer treatment. However, when Dr. Kamerer walks into the room with his calm and wise demeanor the fear begins to seep out of your mind. - Bonnie G.
