    I¿m so happy to see him as my epileptologist & wouldn¿t trust anyone else. He¿s making tremendous progress in my seizures in over seven years since moving to Utah. He treats me with medication and a NeuroPace implant.

    I¿ve been very happy with dr. Newman. He listens to my concerns and gives valuable feedback. I am being treated for epilepsy and have had many questions because it is a recent diagnosis. I¿m very glad for the time he takes to listen to my concerns.

    He is very kind and attentive to concerns brought up and very reassuring. He is upfront about my health and genuinely cares about my wellbeing. While having met with dozens of doctors previously, he is by far the best in all he does!
