When first met him, he was polite, knowledgable. My case is rare, complicated and painful. He became rude when I phoned in between appointments and needed help for terrible, unrelenting pain. He was condescending, arrogant and it was unacceptable. Would be better if he admitted he was not skilled enough to help me rather than treat me like garbage so I would not return. Very cowardly. He also misdiagnosed me because he simply did not care.

I have been a patient of Dr. Newmans for many years now. I have seen 3 doctors prior to him that did not help my migraines. Dr. Newman was able to get my migraines under control while being very professional and compassionate. I have recommended him to many people who suffer like me.

Takes the time to deal with impossible headaches. Always calls back!!!! Very aware of all the new research and medications. Personally greets you with a smile. A great sense of humor when you are down with a chronic daily headache. Understands!

if so, you can expect the doctor to lose compassion and patience quickly. seen the dr. a bunch of times starting in 2010. at first he was the best. as pain went on the dr. was less open to help, and become hard to get a hold of, and though he gives his patients his email, he will stop answering them. top rated or not, he has not helped me. have not gone back in many months and probablly won't.
