I am so pleased that the appointment worked out. Many people treat my daughter differently because of her [physical description].

NA

08/30/2023

Dr Fink was very nice and helpful.

08/23/2023

Dr Fink was polite. The issue that I had was that the x-rays and Dr. notes from Saltzer medical was not included in my records despite being assured over the phone that it was sent and received. My medical issue was not addressed during my appointment. I will transfer my care to Saint Luke's due to this.

Dr. Fink's nurse was also very friendly and helpful in explaining what she was doing as she was setting up the things that Dr. Fink would need when she was administering the hip injection. Dr. Fink also explained everything about what she was going to do so that I would know what to expect. It helped me to relax and not be afraid of how painful the injection might be.

*Dr. Fink was great.

05/12/2022

This was my first visit w/*Dr. Fink. I found her to be very caring I did feel that I did not get I didn't get everything handled & was told to set up another appt. I tried to but could not be seen until [date]! I feel that is unacceptable.

05/05/2022

Dr Laura fink is great she listens she answers all my questions and I couldn't ask for better doctor

05/05/2022

Lab wait times were so long that I had to return on a second day--and still wait about 45 minutes.I received duplicate phone calls and mailing with lab results--seems a waste of time to duplicate this report--especially when my appointment with the provider was only days away.

04/29/2022

*Dr. Laura Fink is awesome. Covers everything and all alternative treatments and option. She is pleasant and professional. I really believe she CARES for each patient.

04/27/2022

Very good.

04/22/2022

I was very happy with my visit with Dr Fink. I felt like I had a laundry list of ailments. Dr Fink listened and evaluated my needs. She recommended a series of X-rays. The office called me within two days and explained Dr Fink's interpretation of the X-rays.The only complaint was I hadn't received the written evaluation or X-rays. We determined the e mail program for patients was behind times.

04/20/2022

*Dr. Fink was beyond helpful! I was impressed with her compassion & the time she took to understand my needs & seek to meet them.

Very good.

04/11/2022

I feel so grateful to be receiving such personal care from my docs. I feel very confident on the care & never feel like a number.

04/08/2022

Getting the X-rays was an adventure. The X-ray was out due to the remodel, so I went downstairs. That didn't work because of the type of X-rays, so I went to the orthopedic clinic. They had a nice computer system that wouldn't do walk-ins, so I ended up getting the X-rays at the hospital.

04/05/2022

To explain _____ the above rating of 'good' instead of 'very good'. *Dr. Fink ordered an X-ray in office, there was some kind of miscommunication and I had a very, very long wait. Staff was very nice and if I wasn't already worn out from my shoulder pain, the waiting may not have been a problem.

04/05/2022

*Dr. Fink and her nursing services are excellent and were interested in the information that I shared with them.

04/05/2022

*Dr. Fink was very good at working to get answer to my problem and very helpful in it.

04/04/2022

Took hours to get in and to my labs.

04/04/2022

*Dr. Fink is a very caring physician.

03/26/2022

Dr Fink is the best I have had

03/22/2022

She was attentive and knowledgeable. Very nice and cheerful.

03/22/2022

Wish visits with providers could be longer than 15 min.

03/21/2022

Dr Fink was great. Listened and took the time to understand my history. Took time I. Examining my options

03/21/2022

Visit is always very good with my doctor.

03/14/2022

Awesome, as usual.

03/04/2022

Every visit is very informative, friendly, helpful, & respectful. Very impressed with *Dr. Fink since 1st appt. Awesome doctor representing St. Al's.

03/02/2022

I liked the doctor very much.

03/02/2022

Very good physician!

02/26/2022

I have a bad shoulder. Dr Fink ordered a MRI and told me to make an appointment with her again 4 or 5 days after the MRI to give her a chance to go over the results and then we can choose a course of action. When I called to make the appointment the first one they had was in April. I know they are busy but it seems to me they shoulld be able to set aside 15 minutes to follow thru on an ongoing case. Over a month is a long time to endure the pain in my shoulder and neck.

02/25/2022

I was impressed with the dr. She seemed very knowledgeable and comfortable with what she was doing. I had been wanting a female dr. for awhile now. I believe I made a good choice. I feel good about her.

02/14/2022

I miss *Victor - the nurse that used to work with *Dr. Fink. He was very sensitive and caring and I didn't feel rushed.

02/14/2022

No issues, it was very good

02/07/2022

She was very thorough, took lots of time asked questions, provided options, together with treatment cautions. Made quick arrangements for further care. Excellent provider!

01/18/2022

First time with this provider. Really liked her.

01/15/2022

Excellent care. Very knowledgeable and thorough.

01/11/2022

It is an awesome experience to know this dr. TRULY CARES about ME as a person. In 7! years I've not had a dr. with as much compassion as SHE HAS.

01/10/2022

I like the physician as a person, however she spoke very fast, felt like she was in a hurry to move to next patient ,for a yearly physical appt, visit was short, I had asked if I should be seen by physician who delt with older patients, I am 70 also one who was in office more often because my yearly appt should have been Aug however I could not get in till the end of Dec. Im healthy however, I had some health questions where I felt doc rushed over, and it was a quick 'if you want to see specialist fine we can make appt. ' Not really asking In detail what my Issue was and maybe there was an easy fix and not going to another doc. I just felt there were pre-determined questions for Medicare yearly checkup the physician went over the check list very quickly just was not a personal visit, one where there is a relationship between doc and patient Again, I like her as a person and I'm sure she is a fine doc. However, it just felt very rushed and not personable. I know she must see many patients so this may be the protocol get them In and out this is just my experience I don't want anyone to feel bad

01/07/2022

She was very aware and attentive. She went out of her way to make sure I understood her and felt I knew what I needed to, to make educated choices. She is wonderful!

01/05/2022

My dr. addressed all the problems I had.

11/26/2021

Picked *Laura Fink for my new primary care! Going to keep her. I really liked her -

11/26/2021

This visit was very good even though *Dr. Fink was extremely busy as soon as I said I was having increased tachycardia, increased depression, increased anxiety, she immediately stopped and took the time to follow through with what needed to be done. As I am a [profession] she did everything by the book, ordered an EKG and other follow-up testing. And increased my meds with follow up care. It also took many months to get my sex changed from male to female which was really making me angry. Which is a clerical error.

11/26/2021

*Dr. Laura Frick always provides excellent care for my medical issues.

11/23/2021

Very satisfied and glad to be with the physician.

11/22/2021

10/07/2021

09/28/2021

I really like her.

09/27/2021

I saw *Dr. Fink got a (new patient visit) and I am grateful to her for how she seem to listen and follow thru. My last provider made me feel like I was wasting her time.

09/23/2021

*Dr. Fink is fairly new to me & I really like her but sometimes she speaks so rapidly that it is hard to follow her. That was actually better on this last visit.

09/22/2021

Very pleased.

09/22/2021

Very good!

09/17/2021

I really don't like women doctors in 'general.' So far I really like both women doctors I have received.

09/10/2021

Excellent service no need to change anything.

Prompt & very good.

07/12/2021

I appreciated *Dr. Jinks' understanding about my particular circumstance. Having Polio as an infant - operation at 7 yrs. old - impacted what 'normal' is and she was VERY mindful of that.

07/09/2021

Did like my new doctor.

07/01/2021

06/29/2021

I was satisfactorily.

06/24/2021

A great experience overall. *Dr. Fink cares about me and her staff treated me with professionalism and respect.

Friendly, knowledgeable.

06/17/2021

Showed real concern at dealing with my questions.
