The aspect I appreciate most is that while you explain your issues, Dr. Finegold listens. It is this listening which helps him generate a plan to help you. I have experienced this in each visit I've had with him. It is what makes him a doctor people should want to see.

My son saw him regarding a dermatology issue and the doctor's recommendation was completely accurate. Highly recommend; very nice and professional office staff as well.
Verified patient
Dr. Finegold is very to-the-point which I appreciated but can definitely see that as off putting if someone prefers a more personal and warm touch. He listened to my issue and gave me an honest assessment and advice for next steps. The wait time could have been better since I saw the doctor about 45 minutes after my scheduled appointment time.
Verified patient
I will never ever use your services again. I arrived at 4:15, I didn't leave til after 5:30. For one thing, you said I was preregister. But, the receptionist said that I wasn't; and said that your appointment showed that I was a new patient. Pulaski medical center, booked other people in front of me. When I had a 4:30, they had other patients with the same time.
Verified patient
Dr. Finegold is an engaging, thoughtful and compassionate physician. He puts equal importance in his patient's emotional and physical well-being.
Verified patient
The visit was fine and Dr. Finegold seems like a really nice man and doctor but I just felt things could have gone a little better with the bedside manner and empathy/compassion area. I got really good information though and probably if I saw him again it might be a better visit.
Cordial, professional, efficient.
