I had some cosmetic dental work done by Dr Finlay today. As always he and his staff were warm, compassionate, professional and most importantly, extremely skilled. The work he did for me is fantastic. I have been a dentist for thirty years.

I am extremely picky and critical of other professional offices. Dr Finlay and his staff are with out a doubt among the best the dental profession has to offer.

Dr. Finlay is the most technical and fine skilled dentist I have ever been to. My daughter's teeth were very involved. Dr. Finlay gathered a lot of information, from extensive films to impressions.

His findings were amazing and she is receiving quality care to achieve a beautiful smile. He and his office help have a wonderful bedside manner and the atmosphere is clean and comfortable. We recommend Dr. Finlay and his staff for you and your family.

I have written a good review for Dr Finlay before, but the recent service I received deserves additional mention. I first met Dr Finlay when I broke one of my front teeth and he did a beautiful job of fixing that tooth and some others that were giving me trouble. I have had so many people since remark that I have a beautiful smile. I feel lucky to have had someone protect my smile.

Recently I cracked a molar and needed a bridge. The work was done quickly and efficiently and beautifully. I am very grateful for Dr Finlay and his wonderful staff.

I received a referral to Dr. Finlay in 2010 and although the trip is almost an hour drive, I have never been more pleased with the level of professionalism, courtesy, friendliness and competency of this amazing staff. My experience from the gorgeous waiting room to the amazing front desk staff (who I consider extended family) to the dental chair has been exceptional from day one. Dr. Finlay employs new technology whenever feasible and I've never had an uncomfortable experience even when getting those dreaded shots.

He's kind, funny, considerate and the most knowledgeable and highly educated dentist in the area. Cleanings are actually a joy if you can believe it. I'm so happy I found a dentist that is as committed to my health as I am. And I have a new smile to prove it.
