This was the highlight of the visit. Her explanations were very clear and to the point, and her answers to my questions were highly responsive. This visit was exactly what I (and my husband) needed and is a testament to VUMC.

Dr. Finn is an amazing surgeon! She closed a large macular hole in my eye tha had already had one surgery that failed. She didn't promise she could close it but said she would try. She is kind and compassionate and demonstrates outstanding concern and care. I was very impressed that she held my eye medicine after surgery until my appointment the next day, because she remembered me saying my husband wouldn't remember what she said.
