Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Campanella is rude & doesn't take your issues seriously. I stopped seeing him after being upbraided more than once. My fiance went to him for stress migraines & was told to "be less stressed". Years later, fiance goes back with a raging alcohol problem (self-medicating due to stress) & asked for anti-anxiety meds. He was told to go to AA even though he'd just, a week prior, relapsed *while in rehab & going to AA* (because he couldn't deal with his anxiety). Campanella knew this.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Campanella?
short waits for appointments and he won't make you feel rushed, but you will find that he will actually berate you and you will have to constantly ask to be referred when he can't find the solution. I had an emergency room visit in which a doctor told me to follow up on an enlarged liver and Dr. Campanella said it probly just looked big since I was so small. I was also sent twice to labs in which they didn't have my paperwork and had to call the office. decided to switch doctors
