My Doctor (Dr. Lisa Newman) is absolutely wonderful!! Her knowledge and professionalism is awesome!! She also has a great personality and very easy to speak with. She is a great listener and asks questions. Never felt rushed. She takes time with her patients. This is what a doctor should be like. Very rare to see. I have HAD to see other doctors in the past years due to my insurance and have always returned to her shortly afterwards even if it meant that I had to pay out of pocket due to my insurance in the past. She is absolutely the best MD around. I am extremely sad to know she is retiring this year. But I do wish her well she absolutely deserves it.
