Dr Newman took the time to review my medical history and explained the required solution as this was what is showing low in the blood test. He was very welcoming to questions I had and was very helpful. Thank you

As a doctor myself, I am especially careful when reviewing other doctors, and Dr. Joel is truly exceptional. After dealing with a clotting issue for 6–7 months under the care of another physician without resolution, Dr. Joel quickly identified the problem, explained it thoroughly, and clearly outlined the available options and considerations. I highly recommend him; his depth of knowledge is unmatched.

I urgently needed iron infusion during my third trimester of pregnancy, and many of the haematologists or clinics that I spoke to were unable to help me with this urgent request. Dr Newman and his PA Jude helped me with navigating the difficult situation - they contacted different hospitals and managed to arrange a hospital to admit me. Thank you for helping me in this difficult and tricky time! Thank you Dr Newman for listening to me and addressing my concerns!

Felt relaxed during my appointment and able to completely go through how I had been feeling, not rushed and found Dr Newman to be compassionate and understanding, the process of the need of blood tests and a CT scan was explained fully - really felt at ease with Dr Newman and left feeling a little less anxious than I had been feeling of late.

Very personable doctor. I was given plenty of time to discuss how I was feeling and all concerns I had were discussed. I left the consultation feeling positive that a thorough investigation was going to be carried out.

Your trust is our top concern, so providers can't pay to alter or remove reviews.
