Caring - Compassionate - Complete, no need to look any further, this doc knows his specialty! Finds cancer early, finds cancer others dismissed! Surgery scar? What surgery scar? What more could you ask for? Well, he also knows lasers and injectables. I like the no-pressure atmosphere and the staff are a dream team of medical excellence.
I visited Dr. Ralston on the recommendation of a friend who is a patient of his. I changed from my dermatologist of 30 years who is too busy and utilizes his Physician Assistant to a great degree in handling patients. Dr. Ralston is very capable and personable, taking the time and effort I needed and identifying three conditions needing attention. He addressed my questions and concerns , paying close attention. His Physician Assistant and staff are very friendly, knowledgeable, and capable, also.
Dr. Ralston took his time to do a thorough first time exam and answer all of my questions. He spent about an hour with me to make sure that I felt comfortable and was very clear in talking me through any areas of concern. I highly recommend him. After seeing other dermatologists who spend less than 5 minutes with their patients, it's clear that Dr. Ralston and his staff take their patient care seriously.
Charged me $178 for a procedure to remove a skin growth. Said Medicare would not cover it. I paid it. The growth did not budge. Went to Dr Marinara who removed it by freezing it and it was gone in a week. No scar. I did not have to pay anything. It was covered by Medicare
I had a great experience with Dr. Ralston who identified several moles that needed to be further examined. I felt very comfortable with him and he was extremely thorough and I never felt rushed. I also appreciated the follow up call to see how I was doing after my excision procedure. Rarely does a doctor take the time to do that! Also, his staff is great, especially Rachel (I believe.) Very kind and helpful!
Dr. Ralston has great bedside manner and was not moody at all! He made the follow up phone calls himself with test results and called just to see how I was doing after my procedure. I very, very rarely have been called by the actual doctor and am very impressed with him! I highly recommend him and wish all my doctors were as great as him! All the staff was very professional and helpful too!
Dr. Ralston is probably one of the best doctors I've ever seen. I've had three office visits so far - Dr. Ralston listens, diagnoses, explains, and treats with great care. His skills are terrific - I have no scar!
This physician seems moody, he came into the room with all smiles and halfway through the treatment discussion seemed different and left the room multiple times. I will seek another dermatologist for my condition although I got an appt quickly, I have decided there was probably a good reason he has such quick availability.
Excellent attention to my care and post treatment....great staff once I initial receptionist was gone.
