My time with Dr. Finney is important and makes going to the doctor easy. His bedside manner is wonderful and supportive.
Dr. Finney is an excellent provider. He always listens intently with care, compassion and patience. I am very comfortable discussing any health-related concerns with him. A company or organization is only as strong as the people who work for it and Dr. Finney is an invaluable asset to Southcoast Health.
Dr. Finney has a great bedside manner. He explains things clearly and sees genuinely concerned for my success in my health journey. The staff is always communicative and pleasant.
They had a student trainee with me for my annual appointment. I would have liked my Dr to listen to my breathing as I have asthma. He did not come within 2 ft of me and I wasn't sick. I do not feel it was a very thorough appointment.
Everything was great! Dr Finney and his staff are the best.
The doctor and his assistant were very pleasant.
This office has excellent staff from the front end receptionist all the way up to the doctors. Dr Finney and Dr[Name] are in my opinion the best PCP doctors Southcoast has. Excellent office excellent staff all around.
Good communication and results. Waiting on instructions for referrals . Dr. Finney has always been tentative and professional. Thank you.
The care that Dr Finney provides. And the staff is so helpful at all my needs.
I trust my team of doctors. They are professionals
I called the office for a personal medical issue I was having. The nurse I spoke with was gentle and kind. I got an appointment the same day to see my PCP. Dr. Finney was kind , he listened and really helped me and eased my mind. Dr. Finney also set up referrals and follow up visits for me. I had labs taken in the office and results within hours, with a personal message from Dr. Finney. I couldn't ask for a better visit or better staff. Thank you to the team I appreciate each one of you.
Dr Finny is absolutely the best. I was apprehensive at first, he looked very young… Like he could be my son. That means I'm getting older. I'm a 65-year-old woman and I do not normally have male doctors. I don't find them compassionate enough. Nothing could be further from the truth with Dr Finny. He is absolutely compassionate and listens. A lot of doctors do not listen they let their egos get in the way, when we the patients know our bodies and are our best advocates. Wonderful experience with this Dr. I have three people that are on his waiting list and have already gotten him 14 new patient patients. I would never ever recommend him if he sucked. Thank you, Dr Finny for always listening, and not being a jerk like some doctors, we know.
I was seen right away and treated with respect. The medical assistant and Doctor explained everything they were doing in a professional way, and a way I could understand. The facility was clean and I didn't have to wait to get labs.
The Dr. made me feel comfortable. He listened to me and was able to discuses my problems in a way I could understand.
Dr Finney is very personable and explains everything so well. Love my PCP!
Everyone and everything was wonderful.I recently had a stroke and someone came out to help me and my husband into the building. She couldn't have been more helpful . Actually everyone was so kind and supportive. Very happy to have Dr Finney as my PC .
Always a professional friendly experience
Dr. Finney is by far the best PCP I've had to date and his practice of making himself available to his patients on short notice makes him exemplary, to say the least.

I just want to say that Dr. Finney was very compassionate with my medical issues that I was going through. He listened to every single word. He actually sat down and says, you know, I got you.

Hi, I'm very happy with Dr. Finney. I feel like he's probably the best primary care doctor I've had. So I'm confident that, uh, you know, we're staying on top of things as, you know, him being my primary, uh, provider and, uh, yeah, he's good. He's smart and he's, uh, he's definitely helped me out a lot. So I got nothing good, nothing but good things to say about him. That's it.

NOTHING, EVERYTHING WENT VERY WELL. GREAT DOCTOR AND STAFF.
Every thing was great
Omgoodness where do I begin. I made an appointment for the Dr. I got to the receptionist and I was informed that I had the next day. I'm became overwhelmed. She said let's talk to him even knowing that he was fully booked. He called me in and evaluated me and I was very sick. So called the pharmacy to get my prescription. Also everyone at his office are so kind and helpful. This office is rated #1 in my book.
I was very pleased, I was seen fast and the provider was very helpful and nice!

He spoke to me for quite a while to make sure I understand. Any questions that I had, he was able to answer. I had no questions. I had a perfect score today.
This was my initial visit with Dr Finney. He did not rush; looked at me as we talked, and asked questions. He was not rushed and explained how and why he asked questions and recommended things.

Everything to the T. Dr. Finney is outstanding.
Staff was extremely friendly and energetic. I was seen in a very timely manner and my PCP was a very kind, positive and friendly individual who genuinely seemed interested in my overall health. Overall, no one ever really looks forward to going to the Drs. even for a yearly physical but my experience was a very positive one. I would definitely recommend Dr. Finney to any of my family or friends.
