Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

He is a racket!
Dr Rackett is a racket. I had to get a birthmark removed on my butt and first he walked in with a few assistants and then when he removed the mark, he left the stitches in too long and left a mark. Definitely not impressed and would not recommend.

I adore this office! Going to the doctors is, lets be honest, not something most people enjoy doing. However, the staff of this office does everything in their power to make you feel welcome and comfortable. Everyone is so friendly and knowledgeable, from the front desk to the medical assistants to the doctor. On top of being knowledgeable Dr. Rackett's bedside manner is remarkable. He treats you with respect and I believe he generally cares about your well being, which is rare for a physician.

Dr. Rackett and his entire staff at Manhattan Beach Dermatology make taking care of my skin easy. Everybody in this office is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Rackett is very thorough in his exams and takes the time to make sure all of my questions are answered every visit. There can sometimes be a wait, but that is the price you pay for good health care and knowing that your doctor won't rush you in and out of the office. If you need a dermatologist- Dr. Rackett is your guy!

I was seen by Dr. Rackett recently and was very pleased with my overall visit. The receptionists were very warm and friendly, as well as informative about my current deductible status and what I may owe for any services. All of the assistants were very courteous and said hello to me as I was called back. My first impression of Dr. Rackett was extremely warm and easy to talk to. His bed side manner is outstanding as is his expertise on the skin in general. I would highly recommend this office

Dr. Rackett & his staff were friendly & personable. Dr. Rackett listened to my medical concerns, seems like he really cares. He was very thorough with my exam as well as knowledgeable. When I had questions about cosmetics, he was very informative but not pushy which I appreciated. I definitely recommend Dr. Rackett & Manhattan Beach Dermatology staff, the front office and assistants were very helpful and gracious.
