There are three Technical Service Bulletins (basically info from the manufacturer to mechanics about known problems and their fixes) for Brakes for 1999 Camrys, none seem to be a match for your problem though. The mechanic you talked to may just be thinking in general about brake problems, or there just haven't been enough problems like yours to warrant a TSB.
I would try changing the brake pad and see if it helps. If not, it may be a warped rotor.
Good luck and please share the solution if you find one.
