Great Job for me – I have been there several times and always felt that Dr. Wasserman was good but this last time I had the ultimate good medical care. I had been in the hospital for 2 weeks and complained of a tiny itchy bump and showed it to several doctors who told me it was from a needle stick from my IV. Then showed it to my family doctor after I got out of hospital who told me it was a scar from my IV. I then went to Dr. Wasserman who looked at it and said he thought it was a basil cell carcinoma. He biopsied it and it... read more

I wish I had read these reviews sooner! – I wish I had read these reviews before my son's appointment. This doctor is completely NUTS! After a football injury, my son had a blood blister removed from his chest. He spent the entire appointment telling us how many athlethes he has treated. Then he said to my son, "I don't know why you're wasting your time playing football, you'll never be an NFL player. You are too small." I responded that he likes to stay active and doesn't really see himself in the NFL. Again he said my son ... read more

really good job – Dr. Wasserman did a great job! Just saw him 2 weeks ago for the first time. Even though it was snowing, and I was the last person and I was late they waited for me after I called them and told them the snow was slowing me down. I can't thank him enough for that. The really itchy rash I had got better in one day from that awesome cream! My sister told me he was great and she was right! The coupon for the medicine saved me alot of money. I really apreciate it!

Take the Good with the Bad – I am a long term patient of Dr. Wasserman's. But, I will be as unbiased as possible. 1. If you have a real health concern (skin cancer/funky moles, persistent warts, odd rash, eczema/psoriasis), he is definitely worth going to. 2. The nurse is his wife (which could explain a few experiences) 3.Jeffhealth is a long-term friend of Dr. Wasserman's. I've heard plenty of stories over the years about Jeff, the doctor from North Jersey, who he stops to see occasionally on his way to/from NY. He wrote a ... read more

I second, "ugh" – I've never been to Dr. Wasserman. But what I can comment on is how he treats service providers. I agree with the other posts that he thinks he's an exceptional human being. But I've seen him go for the jugular on a store clerk to the point where she was reduced to tears from taking his abuse. He called her "stupid" and a "liar" and tried to get her fired. He raised his voice and totally lost his composure. I can't remember what his complaint was about, I just remember thinking, "This guy is nuts!" This is t... read more

Best Doctor My Family Goes To – Doctor Wasserman is very complete and detailed. He is like the old time doctors our families grew up with. I am a nurse at a University Hospital in Philadelphia and my professional friends there seem to know he is the one to see. My whole family goes there and he has picked up small skin cancers that were just beginning and were extremely small on my grandmother. You do wait when you go there but it is worth it because he talks to you and really knows you if you are his regular patient. You fe... read more

ugh – The reasons why i wouldn't recommend this place are many. This guy seems outdated and his office is old. All he does is talk about himself and tells stories which are a waste of my time. His nurse hands out expired samples (from 2004, it's 2009 now!), and he can't write in my chart himself —he has one of the assistant-assistants do it. So not only do I have to listen to Dr. Wasserman talk about his brother's-girfriend's-sister's puppy, now I have to look at some braces-clad teen in scrubs taking copious notes on post-i... read more

stay away – I am also in the medical field and went to see Dr Wasserman , I had same experience as many of these posts, I should have gone to this site and read these reviews, . I never knew that I had a follow up appoinment until I received a call to confirm. I told the woman on the phone I did not have a appointment and did not need to see the Doctor., she was very rude and talked down to me like I was a 2 yr old. Then the Doctor got on the phone and he continued to talk down to me. I have never in my years dealt with a Do... read more

He is the best – I am a healthcare professional in north jersey. I drive 100 miles to see Dr. Wasserman because he is the best. Years ago, I was seeing a dermatologist who told me I did not need followup. I was bothered by this because of my family history of skin cancer. I made my way to Dr. Wasserman because I saw him on TV related to his work with skin cancer in professional athletes. I believe I am alive only because Dr. Wasserman insisted on twice yearly exams because of my family risk. He picked up a melanoma in its ea... read more
