    How was your appointment with Dr. Newman?

    May 10, 2016
    He was friendly, pleasant and listened. I had to have an urgent appendectomy and I was extremely nervous. After speaking with him in the ER, I felt much more at ease. From that moment all the way to my discharge, Dr. Newman made the experience much easier.
