5.0 star star star star starThe reasons for my score is that Dr. Feinstein is not only wonderfully optimistic but also an excellent listener. Two things which, given the uniqueness of my situation, I appreciate more than words can say.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Feinstein has a great, confidence-inspiring demeanor. He is thorough in his questioning and assessment process, and listens carefully. He balances his training in biological science and experience in real-world clinical data to provide insight and recommendations for treatment. And, he achieves all of this without a trace of pedantry or arrogance. In fact, we felt a personal connection on our first visit (my wife accompanied me). He even walked us to the door! How many physicians, let alone top cardiologists, do that these days!!!!

5.0 star star star star starHe seemed interested in me personally. Took the time to understand my health situation. Seemed to form a reasonable course of treatment. Was clear in terms of our mutual expectations. Well done to Dr. Feinstein and his resident (my apologies - I forgot the young doctor's name). Both were excellent, as were the nurse and the ECG specialist.

5.0 star star star star starVery good cardiologist. He was great. Listened to me. Understood my needs. Came very well prepared for the visit. Ordered the tests and was willing to share his insights. I just felt the visit was a little rushed, which might not be due to the doctor but the high volume of patients. Overall, the doctor was great and the visit was very enjoyable.

5.0 star star star star starBefore I ever met Dr. Feinstein several NM employees told me how lucky I was that he would be my doctor. They were right. Dr. Feinstein is very knowledgeable, offers common sense suggestions on improving my health. He has a warm personality and the resident and medical student who assisted him were also great.

5.0 star star star star starHis chair/bed side manners were excellent. He had gathered all information about me prior to coming into the room therefore he was ready for all questions and explained all test results and made sure I understood. His recommendations were very good which I consider preventative measures.

5.0 star star star star starHe was smart. Understanding. Kind. Helpful. Caring. And didn’t over alert me. Felt he was a realist and didn’t try to do unnecessarily test. Just to do tests. Listened to concerns and took time to understand I couldn’t afford to do test after test if it wasn’t needed
