Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Persistent Rash Relief
After three visits with varying physicians, it was Dr. Finch who identified the nature of my rash, when I had been previously told it was 'unknown'. Rather than prescribe more pills, as had been done by the previous three physicians, Dr. Finch biopsied the rash, and prescribed the first topical cream that actually stopped the itching! He took me off the oral medications that I had been given which may have aggravated the condition. I would highly recommend him for his compassionate bedside manor, knowledge of skin conditions that led to the diagnosis of this rash; and strong communication skills in explaining the method of treatment.

Smart, compassionate, skilled surgeon
I’ve been seeing Dr. Finch for over a decade. He’s treated several people in our family for both everyday skin issues, and one more complex diagnosis. He is brilliant and forthright in presenting options as well as his own recommendation. Never arrogant. Always remembers a small story we discussed in the last visit. And technically masterful at surgery - he’s an artist and fine woodworker in his private life and I think these skills transfer very well in his field.

Will not return
As a new patient, Dr Finch spent 10 minutes or less with me for an annual body check. He was rushed, looked at the right side of my body, not the left. Spoke so quickly I could hardly comprehend his responses. When asked a question, he would not answer, said I'd have to be referred to another MD who performed laser treatments, altho in the past Dr Finch performed this service and would have known the answers to my basic questions. Told me to return in 3-5 years. Who does that, when the standard of care is annual checks! Office staff was extremely rude and unprofessional. The response to my dissatisfaction with leaving my credit card information (mandatory) was "Well I guess this will just be a bad part of your day". Will not return.

Dr Finch has been absolutely amazing, Very intelligent and was able to diagnose my rare skin disorder when others could not. After 8 months of treatment my condition is fully under control and i could not thank him enough. His office is a hour away but it is worth the drive to be treated by someone who is this skilled and knowledgeable

I have struggled with cystic acne since I was 17 years old. I have only had appointments with Dr. Finch three times within the last 8 months or so, and my skin is the clearest it has been in over ten years. I am thrilled with how my skin looks now, and I sincerely appreciate Dr. Finch's help and expertise. I finally have a regimen that works for me individually. I would highly recommend Dr. Finch; he answers all of your questions, and provides you with options. I am extremely grateful for his help.

An amazing doctor in general. He is incredibly compassionate about his work, and I consider him to be a genius in the field of Dermatology. As both a co-worker and patient of Dr. Finch, I can confidently say that he has made such a positive impact on my life. There are no words to describe the immense care he has for his patients and his assistants.

Dr. Finch has been my doctor over the past 8 years and I could not have asked for a more knowledgeable and helpful doctor, I commute from Portsmouth NH because I don’t trust anyone else with my alopecia and even when I had the chance to move doctors closer to me I refused because no matter how much it impacted me Dr. Finch had something to do and help me. There is not much else I can say besides I would recommend him to anyone!
