Extremely Talented
Friendly and accommodating staff, nice office. Dr. Newman is extremely talented and skillful in his use of various modalities. I had a reduction of upper arm fat and facial contouring with minimally invasive procedures and injections, and could not be happier with the results. Dr. Newman was friendly, down to earth and genuinely interested in helping me look my best. I recommend him heartily.

I paid $275 for a facelift consultation with Dr. Newman and felt it didn’t provide the value I expected. The 25-minute appointment included a brief exam and photos taken on his iPhone, but there was little discussion of his facelift approach or realistic outcomes. When I asked for before-and-after photos, I was directed to his Instagram. Hair loss products were also offered, though that wasn’t the purpose of my visit. While the staff was polite, the consultation wasn’t detailed enough to justify the above-market cost, especially since the fee can’t be applied toward a procedure. UPDATE: After this review, the practice kindly reached out and offered more time with the doctor along with additional before-and-after photos. I appreciate their thoughtfulness and the friendly front desk team, but I’ve decided not to pursue surgery here. My rating reflects my initial consultation experience.

Dr Newman is top notch and he took great care of me. He fully addressed my concerns about my eyes. I trusted him and he did an excellent job. The price was very fair too!
