    I respect , trust, & admire, Dr Newman. He's straightforward, listening to my concerns and gripes about seizing, but never being ambivalent. He's a good candidate to have as your doctor! He is professional, intelligent, & knowledgeable.Recently,despite asking my pharmacist if some of my medications were interacting and causing balance problems the said no. Dr Newman listened to my problems and adjusted when I take my seizure meds . It solved that problem. He's a great person to talk with about issues, doesn't get judgmental.
