Dr. Carmen Garcia, MD

I was diagnosed as having DRESS syndrome by Hackensack hospital and to follow up with dermatologist. She basically said DRESS syndrome was the answer when they didn't know what was wrong, did not go near me, did not want to prescribe anything for the itch, finally did, and told me the rash all over my body was "on the way out". Rash lasted 3 months. I went to another dermatologist where I was treated completely different.

I had the first appointment of the day. This was a new doctor for me, and Dr Ravits, her associate, was recommended, but she did not have availability so I took the appointment with Dr. Garcia. I was given a child size robe that covered nothing. She spent a sum total of 2 minutes doing an overall body check, never introduced herself, was rude, told me I had Rosacea, and was more interested in pushing a prescription on me for a drug that has many side affects, none of which she reviewed even when asked. Never looked at my scalp, between toes, etc. Her medical assistant wanted to fax a prescription to some new pharmacy, even though I have a very competent pharmacy in my own town. I would not recommend this office or Dr Garcia. Terrible experience.

Terrible. This is the fourth time I’ve seen her and I don’t know I went back. Once I waited for a half hour while she talked to someone in the hallway about their trip to Florida. As I sat in the room waiting for my appointment to start. Recently I went back and she misdiagnosed a rash on my face. Had to buy $$$$ cream that did nothing. Two months of no improvement I saw a different doctor. Got meds and within 4 days rash was gone.

Horrible. I don't usually write reviews but have been relying on them more and more. Dr. Garcia was so abrupt and disinterested. Did not make eye contact with me upon entering the room and had her back turned to me while speaking to me. In 1 minute flat she diagnosed me without checking my face( my reason for going). She then went on to prescribe an expensive cream that she told me insurance will likely not pay for. Not helpful. S he made 50 dollars in 5 minutes and wasted my time.

This my 2nd review, I don't know why the 1st one didn't take... ANYWAY, I went to see Dr. Garcia about a rash I had on my thigh, and was afraid to hear the verdict... shingles.. but shingles it was and Dr. Garcia couldn't have been any more compassionate towards me and my condition. She prescribed me an antiviral and made sure I got the right steroid spray for the pain. She was so sweet. I will gladly tell everyone I know about her and will return in the future.

Seeing Dr. Garcia is always a good experience. I have been going to her for over 20years and think she is the best. Dr Garcia and her staff are the best. She is always gentle and explains all she is going to do.

A true professional. Thorough and extremely caring. My family has known Dr. Garcia for over 15 years and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to others.
