During my time, I felt like he wasn't listening. There were times where he over talked me. I couldn't finish my sentences. At one point, he tried to tell me when I was explaining something to him that it was nearly impossible for me to do that. And so I felt like, you know, the feedback that I was getting on the test just wasn't, didn't give me like anything at all to go by and acted like there was like nothing wrong. And at one point, I had to tell him that, you know, you need to treat the patient, not the equipment. And so I just kind of felt like, almost like it was a pointless test with him and just the things that he was saying. So it was, for me, it wasn't a great experience.

This is the second time I have seen Dr. Finkelman and I couldn't be more happy with my care. He spent extra time with us, explained what was happening during our procedure as well as what the results mean. Fantastic doc!

Dr. Frinkelman was one of the sweetest doctors that I have ever met. He gave off such a grandpa vibe. He was very calm, caring. We were able to laugh and he explained everything while he was doing the procedure. I was not worried about anything at all. He is one of the best doctors that I have ever seen, ever.

He is the first person who finally got what I had been trying to say about my legs not working right. I'm hopeful I'll be able to get treatment for the problem now.
