It is apparent that Dr. Fingerer knows what he is doing. His years of experience are definitely a plus with this doctor. However, he and his staff are slightly lacking in bedside manners. So long as you don't mind having a doctor that doesn't like answering questions and nurses with zero personality; you're fine.

My visit was a very positive experience. I was really impressed with Dr. Fingerer's bed side manner. He made me feel very confortable and listen to my concerns with great interest. He was not in a hurry like most doctors are these days. After the consultation he went over his findings and my treatment plan in layman terms so I understand what to expect. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for an ENT.
