Desiree Ratner, MD

A dear friend introduced us to Dr. Ratner as we were challenged by a recurrence of a basil cell carcinoma in a dear friend who is 87 years young. Surgery had been performed but a reoccurrence happened. We are ever so grateful for the competence, care, and knowledge of Dr. Ratner in stating that there would be no further surgery but that a special medicine could block the growth of this BCC. We thank God and Dr. Ratner for the good outcome that we are experiencing. Gratefully, Mary E. Mygatt

Dr. Ratner is a wonderful surgeon and a terrific person. She always makes me comfortable and let's me know what the plan is and what to expect. Dr. Ratner checks up after procedures to make sure everything is good and answers questions thoroughly. I feel extremely well cared for.

I am very pleased with the treatment I received from Dr. Ratner. Her communications and availability both exceeded my expectations and she has a pleasant demeanor. As a result of her careful precision with the stitches, I have no scar in the area that was worked on. I recommend her with no reservations at all.

Dr. Ratner is an excellent physician—knowledgeable, compassionate, and attentive. She takes the time to listen, explain things clearly, and make me feel confident in my care. The office is well-run, with kind staff and minimal wait times. I highly recommend Dr. Ratner to anyone looking for a thoughtful and reliable doctor.

I had a periungual wart that was on my finger for 5 years! After multiple different treatments, no other doctor could figure out a way to remove the wart except Dr. Ratner. She and her team were optimistic, respectful, and kind when treating me. The bleomycin treatment worked wonders and I am so thankful for her help to finally remove this stubborn wart!

I recently had a lipoma removed by Dr. Ratner. I am so thrilled with the results and my entire experience with her and her team. I was a bit nervous about the procedure and Dr. Ratner made me feel completely at ease. I knew I was in great hands! She listens and is always responsive during the procedure and recovery. I couldn’t recommend her and her team more!

We had an excellent experience with Dr. Ratner. Both my sister and my dad underwent procedures with her and we couldn’t be more grateful for the care and professionalism shown throughout the entire process. Dr. Ratner was not only highly skilled but also incredibly kind and reassuring, taking the time to explain each step clearly and making sure everyone felt comfortable. She even called us at night to check on my sister after her procedure. Her staff is great too. We highly recommend her. She is amazing and very kind with very good bedside manner.

One of the best doctors I’ve ever had. I felt truly cared for throughout my procedure — the doctor and her team were kind, communicative, and clearly experienced. I felt completely at ease knowing I was in good hands.

I first saw Dr Ratner 10 years ago and did not hesitate to go back to her recently for surgery. Very kind, explaining the procedure very clearly before and during, she is always available to address concerns or questions promptly. While warning when it might hurt a bit during the procedure, she has such a deft hand that the slight pain is over before you know it. I highly recommend Dr. Ratner . Marie-Therese

I have had many skin-related procedures over the past 35 years. Dr. Ratner has performed several of the more complicated facial procedures, and I could not be happier with the results and the treatment I received. From a professional/technical perspective, her work has been excellent - she is highly skilled, and both the actual procedures and aftercare have been at the highest level. She is diligent with follow-up; she is very compassionate & empathetic; she is committed to the patient; in short, she cares! I highly recommend her to anyone needing the services she provides. I would not consider using anyone else.
