Dr. Margaret S Ravits, MD

My wife and I can not speak highly enough of Dr. Margaret Ravitz. We have seen her in both offices, River Edge and Hackensack. The appointments are always thorough and informative. Dr. Ravitz is friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. She also takes the time to address all questions and concerns. This is why we continue to use Dr. Ravitz and would never consider going anywhere else. Philip and Brenda Shapiro

I can’t believe people actually give bad reviews to this practice. Dr. Ravits is the guru of Dermatology. I have friends that have been treated by her for almost 40 years. PA Elizabeth Walsh is excellent! She is incredibly knowledgeable and easy going. Don’t be fooled by her title. She’s as good as any Dr. of Dermatology that I have ever seen. My daughters also think she’s great. Mindy is also a professional and is always very pleasant.

Dr. Ravitz is the rare dermatologist who gets results. We travel from NYC into NJ so we can see her — despite the plethora of dermatologists here. Can't find one to compare.

Dr. Ravits is an excellent Doctor! I had a wonderful experience from beginning to end. Her receptionists were pleasant and my wait wasn’t too long. Dr. Ravits was very knowledgeable and thorough with her examination. But my experience doesn’t end there...during my visit Dr. Ravits mentioned if ever I came in contact with poison ivy, poison oak, or something of that nature to give her a call. Well, low and behold the following week, I did! As I sat scratching my hands and face, who came to mind?..Dr.Ravits. It was Sunday and I thought, let me give it a try. Within a very short period of time Dr. Ravits returned my call! Remember this was Sunday, her day off! After her initial diagnosis and remedies there were several days that she checked in with me on my progress until she was comfortable that I was feeling better. My poison ivy is behind me, but my future with Dr. Ravits is just beginning! Oh, did I mention this was my first visit with Dr. Ravits? It is certainly is not my last! Thank you, Dr. Ravits!

a day ago I'm writing this on a Saturday because I am still upset about this doctor visit. I will also cancel my follow up and go elswhere. I arrived 20 minutes early to my 11:30 appointment. I wasn't seen until 12:30. Thats basically an hour and half just to be seen. No one kept me updated. I had to ask if Ms. Ravits was behind since I went during my lunch hour. I get in the room and Ms. Ravits first words to me were that I should never schedule an appointment during my work day. I told her to remove the skin tags and review the sun spots on my face. She literally rushes a needle in my face and her associate is telling me to look at her as my eye are watering from the injection ahe then gets upset because I couldn't open my eyes for the before picture as the Dr. Ravits was numbing my face at the same time. I would of thrown a fit if I wasn't in shock thinking back on how unprofessional and disgusting this appointment went. Im then told she removes only 2 skin tags at a time when I ask why she can't do all 3 of them. A total scam to drag out more money as my fiance had 9 removed at once. She merely sprays the sunspot once with frozen nitrogen with the bandaids for the skin tags blocking her from spraying the spot and only sprayed one of the 2 spots and ignored every comment I made to address the other. I'm a 30 year old home owner and military veteran not a child. I was prepared for my appointment and she blames me for having to rush. Which I nicely asked her to please not to rush and she still did. The appointment to remove skin tags should of taken 5 minutes. She blamed because she was behind. The women were all cold and I felt as though they didn't even like me before they opened the door. Total house of horrors experience. Pathetic excuse for humans let alone a doctor's facility. Such deceptive and fake reviews below. I was treated terribly and will do more than not return I will advise others to go elsewhere. I do not fund crooked Doctors or their practices.

Dr. Ravits is extraordinary. I recently traveled an hour to take my elderly mother to her and she allayed her fears while thoroughly checking her out. She really cares and her professional knowledge is extraordinary.

Dr. Ravits is such a nice person and excellent Doctor.She is very knowledgeable and knows what she's doing. I definitely recommend her.

Excellent doctor, excellent care,excellent communication, go above and beyond for treatment of her patients.

During a Summer weekend my eyelid became inflamed and Monday morning I called my dermatologist I had been going to for more than 20 years. They told me the earliest I could see the doctor is two weeks. But I have the need now...…...sorry two weeks. I called my primary doctor who recommended Dr. Margaret Ravits in Hackensack, NJ. I called and they said they could take me in the River Edge office at 11:30AM. My call was at 10:45AM! When I arrived I did not have to wait long and I found Dr. Ravits to be very engaging. A bilopsy was taken and Dr. Ravits said I should wait in the waiting room for 20 mins. to see if the swelling goes down so as not to impede my driving. After a short wait Dr. Ravits actually came into the waiting room to check on me. When I came back for my second visit and results I was taken exactly on time.

I went to this office on a recommendation and this has been the worst experience ever. My initial visit with Dr. Ravits was okay and I felt that she was somewhat attentive. Each visit since then has been the worst. The doctor will have her back to you while she is reviewing your information, she is very dismissive, she talks over you and very fast, and when giving her your feedback about your lifestyle none of it seems relevant to her. Even when you are doing the right thing according to Dr. Ravits you can't possibly be or you wouldn't be having the problem. There is always a long wait in the office and once you are in the room, she appears disheveled (physically and otherwise) and her staff members aren't the nicest. Multiple staff members will be in the room at once and the counter tops are a mess. It seems as if no one can keep up with the Doctor and they seem to constantly apologize for her because they can see how put off you are. I called the office to ask for my records and was told I had to write a letter. When I asked for the last name of the person to whom's attention I make the letter I was told I couldn't have it. Odd how my personal information is up for grabs in that office but I can't be given someones last name. Save yourself the time and trouble and run for the hills.

Dr. Ravits goes above and beyond. She wants to fix the problem and doesn't stop until she find results. She makes you feel that you a part of her "family". She is never in a rush and answers all your questions or concerns so your mind is at ease. I am so happy, and I will continue to go back to her again and again!! Her team of ladies are excellent, warm and extremely kind. Thank you Ladies - Patti, Peggy, Sandra and Christine. I wish I could give you 10 stars! Way to go! Cheers to all of you!

I had a procedure which was photographed. It turned out to be squamous cancer. When I went for the surgery, which is only done when the Mow's surgery doctor is available, he could not find the spot (which is understandable). The nurse had the office check cameras. The photo was nowhere to be found. Dr. Ravits is the coach and it is her team. Nothing against her, by far, but it is her team.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting the lovely staff at Margaret Ravits MD dermatology. I was very anxious upon my arrival as probably most people feel knowing you are going to have surgery. Sondra welcomed me with a big warm smile. I asked her if I there was Wi Fi attainable for patients to use while waiting. She immediately gave me the permission to use there service. Sondra then offered me soda and a snack again with a warm smile. I began to feel more relaxed. Kathy and Christine were wonderful also. With humor and sensitivity they both made me feel very comfortable. I highly recommend that you choose Dr.Ravits practice if you need a great Dermatologist. My experience was completely positive. Thank you guys!

Dr. Ravits is such a kind person. She's so knowledgeable and knows what she's doing. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dermatologist in the area.

I have found the practice to be efficient and very professional. My experience with the doctors there have been positive.

wonderful bedside manner, very skilled and makes patient feel very comfortable

Dr. Ravits is simply the best dermatologist you can find. Also her daughter, who works with her, is excellent. Her entire team is fantastic, but Dr. Ravits really sets the gold standard. She is brilliant, kind, caring, supportive and supremely attentive.

Dr. Ravits has been my husband's and my dermatologist for approximately two years, now. We actually travel from Hoboken to Rivers Edge to see her, not because there aren't plenty of dermatologists in our city, or neighboring Manhattan, but, because we trust Dr. Ravits as a serious and dedicated professional, who has a great deal of experience, and goes out of her way to extend kindness and consideration to her patients. This just isn't easy to find. Competence, humanity and accessibility are a rare combination in a doctor. Dr. Ravits will pop her head into the waiting room to make sure patients aren't waiting too long...and we never are. She will offer her cell phone number to patients, in the event that there is a follow up question or concern, regarding any pending matter. She will respond to an inquiry, request for a referral or document, etc. with promptness. She is a no nonsense/no pretense kind of personality who has the work ethic and personal care for her patients of a time gone by. We also appreciate that Dr. Ravits has taken the care to staff her two offices (Rivers Edge and Hackensack) with people that are pleasant, professional, and efficient. We have come to know her assistant, Patty, and, more recently, her daughter, who are both so very kind, attentive and conscientious. We are grateful for Dr. Ravits and her lovely staff.

Love her! My whole family & friends go to her for a variety of problems. Dr. Ravits has solved problems that no other doctor could. She's truly amazing.

I have a very rare genetic disease (only approximately 7,000 known cases in the world) and have be struggling with one of the aspects of the disease (severe itching in the groin and other areas) for well over thirty years. Over the years I have seen over twenty dermatologists, many allergists, an acupuncturist, a herbalist, and three oncologists. Almost all of these physicians are well known nationally in their chosen fields of medicine. I have taken many internal medicines, skin applications, light and laser treatments, nerve block treatments, even a medication given to organ transplant patients. All of the physicians were caring and doing their best to help me. Unfortunately, nothing did help. I was recommended to Dr. Margaret Ravits by my ophthalmologist. I made an appointment and saw Dr. Ravits in her Hackensack, NJ office. Finally the quality of my life had improved because Dr. Ravits was able to help me where no other physician could. Dr. Margaret Ravits is a brilliant diagnostician and one of the most competent physicians I have ever met. She is a very caring, compassionate, and wonderful person. Her staff are knowledgeable, efficient, caring, helpful and very friendly. Her staff has been with her for many years and it is easy to see how her staff respect and enjoy working with her. I highly recommend Dr, Margaret S. Ravits to anyone who is seeking a competent dermatologist.
