When one is faced with options, he explains each one, covering its advantages and disadvantages, so that you know that you are making a completely informed choice.Dr. Finstein felt that surgical repair was not the best choice of treatment for Manuella’s fractured upper arm. We agreed and, with exercise done at home, we are delighted with the range of motion of her shoulder and arm.Manuella’s compound fractures of her ankle bones required immediate surgery. Within hours, Dr. Finstein performed the operation. Her postoperative recovery has been smooth and without incident.

Short wait time. Staff is friendly. Doctor actually listens to you and give you options about your treatment plans.

Very professional

I injured my leg on a Friday morning and my regular doctor was not on call. By the luck of the draw, Dr Finstein came into my life. I have been extremely pleased with the surgery (which was a difficult one), his bedside manner, his compassion in his treatment. I would highly recommend Dr Finstein, and thank God he was there when I needed him.

I went for shoulder pain thinking it was a rotator cuff issue. Turns out it was an inflammatory reaction to my flu shot in November 2020. He was thorough, explained everything he did and ultimately the injection in my shoulder corrected my pain and inflammation. Very kind physician and personable and his office staff was nice as well.

He is a very patient doctor. First thing is that he listens to what you have to say. He doesn’t interrupt and appear to try and diagnose while you talk. He will ask questions to fully understand your issues. Both times so far that I have used him he has given me options of treatment and what to expect with each. He preformed surgery on me in January 2020. He was in contact with me after surgery. His bedside manner is excellent. Highly recommend him.

Dr Finstein was on call when I fell and shattered my femur. This was on a Friday and he knew how important it was to get the problem taken care of that night rather than waiting until the the next day. Little did I know how lucky I was. He is an excellent surgeon, has a wonderful bedside manner, is a very caring doctor. I would highly recommend this doctor for any orthopedic problems you may have.

I was and continue to be extremely pleased with Dr. Finstein's care. I am grateful he is my orthopedic surgeon. On ll/2/21, it was determined in the East Jefferson ER, I had fractured the neck of my femur bone as a result of a fall earlier that day. Dr. Finstein performed my surgery the next morning, and I willl be forever grateful to him for doing my surgery so soon after my diagnosis. During my post-op visits with Dr. Finstein, he has explained my x-rays in a manner that has been easy for me to understand, and he has patiently answered all of my questions. He is truly a caring and compassionate physician. I would be more than happy to recommend Dr. Finstein to my family members and friends.

Being seen by Dr. Finstein was great! He is very easy to communicate with and provides clear explanations of diagnosis and directives for treatment. His entire team were incredibly professional!

He was able to surgically fix my son's shoulder when another surgeon could not. We met him late night in the emergency room. He was patient and very knowledgeable. Surgery went as promised and recovery was quicker than expected. Highly recommend!
