There have been many at Charlotte Plastic Surgery, and Dr. Finical is known as much for his enduring relationships as his surgical expertise. In conversations with his patients, he addresses concerns and helps them understand what to look for in a plastic surgeon, what to expect during procedures, and what results can be achieved. “An educated patient is the best patient,” he explains. “I don’t gloss over options, alternatives or risks. All of my patients hear that. We work as a team.” In addition to such career highlights as working on staff at the Mayo Clinic and contributing frequently to many peer-reviewed journals, Dr. Finical is proud that he and his fellow surgeons at Charlotte Plastic Surgery have learned the art of customer service through Ritz-Carlton training. He believes that going above and beyond to make patients feel more comfortable and at home is fundamental to the philosophy of his team and his practice.
