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.

I have been seen by Dr. Newman on numerous occasions. I recommend very highly along with the entire staff at AMARA. He is an incredible Dermotologist, and the staff are all professional, friendly, and responsive. Top notch practice in a Venice. Florida. Highly recommend.

My Mohs surgery was abruptly canceled by another Dermatologist and no rescheduling offered. Dr. Newman's office was very accommodating with an appt and they were able to schedule my surgery in very timely manner. The office personnel were very efficient and professional.

Dr. Newman immediately made me feel at ease. He is a good listener & answered of of my questions in plain English. I found him to be very thorough & he took his time examining me so I never felt rushed. His nurse Angela was very pleasant and the intake process was very easy. They both care for their patients & you feel they are sincerely interested in your concerns.

I have been a patient of Dr. Newman's at the Venice office for several years. I drive an hour just to see him. He is a wonderful doctor very knowledgeable, personable and pleasant to his patients.He does have a lot of students that observe in this office and work with him which I'm not a fan of. To each their own. However the staff at this particular office is very snobby and not friendly at all. It's a shame that the experience is not a positive one due to the staff. They act like Robots.I have worked in the healthcare field 30 plus years and have high expectations. It really makes the doctors look bad and the staff can make or break a practice. I really hope the Sarasota office is better because the doctor is amazing! Today was not a good experience so I felt the need to express.

Dr. Newman does not give a comprehensive skin exam. He also charges to remove facial spots that are deemed cosmetic. I have had Dermatologists in three states who never charged me extra. The removal cost me $75 that I had to pay out of hand. The spot was removed months ago and I still have a scar. He scraped off the spot with a razor! My spots have always been frozen and never left a scar.
