Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Newton has grown very forgetful over the last couple of years. She doesn’t remember what she’s diagnosed, medications she has subscribed and when speaking to her during visits has even forgotten what she has said in the same visit. She also gives outdated medical advice.She is nice but not very personable-somewhat distant.

This doctors office has got to be one of the worst I have ever been to. They continually over book, causing them to run late. they never keep the patients that are in the waiting area apprised of them being behind. Once you finally get back to you room, The Doctor takes 20-30 min to come in . I was there for my yearly apt, I was there almost 2 hour s before I finally decided to leave. I asked several times if I just needed to reschedule, the kept telling me she would be in shortly

I've had a very unpleasant experience with Dr. Newton and her office. She is impersonal and it seems as though she couldn't care less about me as a patient. I'm also outraged by the lack of professionalism, both by her and the office (University Internal Medicine). Constantly seem to be cancelling appointments, and rescheduling them for a date that is months later! Steer clear...I am switching doctors.
