We calculate some finite and infinite sums containing the digamma function in closed form. For this purpose, we differentiate selected reduction formulas of the hypergeometric function with respect to the parameters applying some derivative formulas of the Pochhammer symbol. Additionally, we compare two different differentiation formulas of the generalized hypergeometric function with respect to the parameters. For some particular cases, we recover some results found in the literature. Finally, all the results have been numerically checked.
