Dr. Finan is awesome. She remembers me year over year - asks about things that we talked about from the year before. Actively provides solutions when I express concerns. Is not shy about stating her mind ie. - "this is an issue that I would worry about - I suggest this when you are ready, but it is not urgent" all the way to "I have to look into that more, bc I have not experienced what you are telling me. My initial thought is that you may be worrying about something that is nothing to worry about". She is the expert, not me. I appreciate that she will guide me and not let my "internet diagnosis" overwhelm me. She follows up with me and writes me little notes when she sends me my physicals "hey, your Choloesteral is high, but it is due to the good stuff, so you are good!" or "watch your iron, it is lower than last time!"
