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.

Great Dermatologist!
He was very quick and knowledgeable. He explained things well and got things done in a very quick manner, which I appreciated. I was in, and out of the office quickly. I had two small procedures and went over four different concerns that he had found. I would highly recommend Dr. Fink, as he's the best dermatologist that I've seen so far. So go see him at University Health Independence Dermatology located at 1900 East Eastland Center Ct.

Great doctor with a great bedside manner
I’ve seen Dr Fink twice. He is new to this location at University Medical off Eastland in independence. The staff is just as nice as he is. He is funny and he listens and validates you. I’ve never felt rushed and I’ve felt heard. Both times were great experiences and I even referred my sister to him. What a wonderful experience. It’s rare these days to find a dr who listens and is also kind and has some humor.

Excellent Dr
Dr Fink is one of the best. He just moved to University Health as the Derm Clinic Director. Been going to him for about 5 years. Takes plenty of time and never rushed.

Where is Dr. Fink? He is no longer w/ St. Luke's.
I'll review him, if he or St. Luke's will tell his patients where he has gone. He is no longer with St. Luke's and all information on Google says he is. St. Luke's will not tell his patients where we go to see him or how to get in touch with him.

AWESOME Dermatologist
I cannot say enough about Dr. Fink. After years of dealing with Dermatomyositis rashes, rosacea, and cystic acne, I finally found a dermatologist who cares and goes above and beyond to make sure I get better. He is always very polite, attentive, and has a great sense of humor. Dr. Fink always responds to my messages through the patient portal and his office personnel is always so professional and polite. I would highly recommend Dr. Fink.

Non-responsive
After being a patient for five years, I moved out of state and requested a referral from Dr. Fink to enable me to transition to a new dermatologist. I asked for a brief summary of my case and recommendation for continuing care to be sent to a new provider who stipulated that such referral must be received in order to be accepted as a new patient. It seemed reasonable to ask the dermatologist who is most familiar with my treatment to do this, but his office refused to cooperate in fulfilling this request which would only take a few minutes of his time.

No visit ... called on August 20th to make an appointment ... was told as a new patient it would be January 2022 until I could get in to see the Doctor. Seriously? Five months for an appointment? What's wrong with this picture?

Dr. Fink is completely incompetent for care of cellulitis skin infection and for draining and packing skin abscesses. He is only looking to bill as many services as possible. He immediately announced he intended to cut several pieces of skin away from several of my 14 abscessed skin lesions to get them cultured even though he knew corynebacteria had already grown from culture. Corynebacteria cause opportunistic blood borne infusions & skin abscesses in the elderly, the immunocompromised, the neutropenic and those who frequently stick themselves with needles. He thought I would be ignorant enough to would fall for his con job when he said "it can't be cornynebacter, because that is a normal skin commensal". He removed & replaced the wound packing the ER had used with packing that cannot allow healing from the bottom up or at all, doubling the size of the hole. He stripped away skin. Now need correct packing, stitches to close and likely, surgery. He is a lying butcher.
