“Actually spent just about a full hour talking with me and asking questions to get a very comprehensive background on my concerns. He ordered me a very wide panel of specific tests which made me feel like he took my concerns seriously and was exploring all possible avenues.”

Dr. Finegold was highly professional and knowledgeable when it came to my allergy treatment. He really took the time to answer all my questions.
Dr. Finegold listened to my allergy issues and spent a good deal of time figuring out which medications I should take. He spent 1/2 hour on the phone with me and wanted to prescribe medications covered by my insurance. He told me wearing a mask outside where the pollen is floating around is a better protection against allergies than Covid.

Verified patient
My interaction with the doctor was riddled with microaggressions. Due to his age I expected as much but I just thought I would leave a little review for other people of color. I dont believe he intended to cause harm I think that he has a not super modern mindset and that someone might not has ever had the nerve to correct him. As a patient expecting a service I shouldnt have to navigate a situation like that in a doctors office; I believe he is probably an amazing doctor but this is my first visit so I will just not be returning.
Dr Finegold is wonderful, as is his staff. I appreciated the personal attention, email with clarification about parking, and Finegold’s listening and problem-solving skills. I notice he is beloved by his patients. Thank you.
