Adamo Matthew's Online Review Report Card

My daughter was born with a tethered spinal cord and Dr. Adamo did her surgery may 2021. He did an amazing job and shes doing healijg and doing great now. Were still being followed by the spina bifida clinic which is a great resource to have andthe nurse was great in the office each time weve gone. Highly reccomend. And if you cant see Dr. Adamo then id try to aee his PA Lisa newman shes great too.

My daughter was sent to doctor Adamo due to her MRI results from the MRI her neurologist had done, she was diagnosed with spina bifidia occulta Doctor Adamo was an hour late for our appointment came in and didn’t look at my daughter or speak to my daughter he wasn’t even in there for 5 minutes! He said we will get an X ray but no need to fallow up! I didn’t feel comfortable with his medical recommendation so I got a second opinion for my daughter in Vermont! (Doctor Adamo never even fallowed through with the X ray!) her new neurosurgeon did and find she also has another condition with her spine she is also seeing urology and has concerning results from a recent test and now has to go for more! My daughter is 4 and deserves doctors who care! I am so greatful we found a team of doctors that so but because of Doctor Adamos lack of caring my daughter now has side affects and complications she may not be having if the doctors at Albany looked at the whole picture and listened to a moms concern and cries for help! I pray nobody else has to go through anything like this!!

Dr. Adamo has treated my daughter for Chiari Malformation and Pseudotumor Cerebri. His knowledge, patience and understanding are incomparable. He nurturing and calm demeanor was everything we needed to calm our own nerves. His skill in the operating room has saved my daughter's life on more than one occasion and we will be forever indebted to him. Additionally his PA, Lisa Newman is also fabulous, knowledgeable, helpful and on-point every time. I would recommend Dr. Adamo to anyone in need of a pediatric neurosurgeon whole-heartedly and without hesitation.

My teenage daughter was diagnosed per her MRI and family physician with a spinal syrinx. We were referred to Dr. Adamo and he literally spent 5 minutes with her. He never even listened to what her symptoms were or spent time with us. He said she needed a second MRI and would call with results as soon as received. I had to call three times, left messages with rude office staff after the MRI, and finally received a call back three days later from a female nurse. She stated that Dr. Adamo said there was nothing he could treat her for and to bounce on an exercise ball, try physical therapy, and then insinuated she needed a therapist do to covid. I asked her about the symptoms she was having (severe back pain, left leg numbness, left arm numbness, weakness, nose bleeds, migraines, etc) and stated they were clearly from the Syrinx. She stated she would speak with the doctor and call me back. This never happened and was unprofessional care all the way around for Albany Med.

wonderful office and wonderful Doctor. Thank you for all you do!

Dr Adamo saved my life I was diagnosed with epilepsy at age 3 and I’m 34 now as I got older my seizures were only getting worse it was hard to breathe my seizures were controlling my life I couldn’t drive I wanted to die but in 2016 I had a brain surgery This dr saved my life Since that brain surgery I have not had one seizure and have been off medication For 3 yrs and have been driving the past year Thanks to him I can live my life and not be scared to wake up every morning thinking I’m going to have a Seizure So if anyone has epilepsy or something wrong with the brain where they need brain surgery Dr. Adamo is definitely the doctor to go to he’s really the best And changed my life for the better

I had surgery for a benign brain tumor when I was 15 and Dr. Adamo was my surgeon....he's a very kind and humble man who cares about his patients and he is great at what he does. I am very thankful that he saved my life.

I spoke very highly of dr Adamo because im getting hiatal hernia repair surgery on the 28 of September and i was hoping if he could be available for that procedure

I went to this doctor for my adult chiari. I sent 8 months under his care believing he would help me. At the end he had his secretary call me and say that I wasn't a candidate for surgery with him. And had no recommendations on what I should do going forward. He should of been up front and told me he couldn't help me instead of wasting my time

As soon as we met with him, I knew everything was going to be OK...He was very competant, very knowledgeable, very honest, and had a down to earth personality, explaining things very clearly, My daughter the patient age 16 was respected and felt very comfortable with this doctor, he explained things so clearly and addressed her at appointments. At and after surgery my first impression was confirmed...He is a wonderful and capable doctor I would recommend him highly and am very satisfied!
