I was pleasantly surprised when I learned it was actually Dr. Newton who did my procedure today. Very kind & hardly any pain felt which is rare for me when receiving the lidocaine shots before the steroid shots.

He listen...asked lots of questions. My only recommendation would be if he went a little slower. I wear hearing aides and like to write the plan down. I asked twice but he just kept going on. I know his time is precious but I would appreciate him talking slower.

Was short and sweet… going to try multiple things to put me at ease. The faculty and facility was very pleasant.

Making a appointment for 6 weeks out seems to long when you are having pain. But with that being said very pleased with care I have received. Physician and staff professional and knowledgeable. Would recommend

Had to wait an hour and a half. They should deduct the value of my time from my bill.

Horrible bedside manner. Dr Newton talked way too fast and didn’t take the time to explain anything. I got more information from the nurse than from him.
