Dr Finnila was very patient, went over my medical history thoroughly and did not miss anything. He is very systematic and made sure all my questions were answered. He spend about one hour with me and conducted a thorough physical exam. He did not rush at all and I would recommend him to my family and friends.

Now that Dr. Finnila has a new nurse, Carol, his office is the best in the city. He keeps impeccable records, stays up with new medical treatments and no big ego to deal with! My husband and I are "high maintenance" patients and expect results with any issues that we may have.

I have to say Dr. Finnila is the most thorough and knowledgeable doctor I have ever had. He sat with me for one full hour, patiently answering every question. He is very well educated and very smart - two qualities that are not found often enough in the medical profession these days. On top of all that, he actually really cares. Very polite guy, too!
