I originally went to see Dr. Newman after a friend recommended him to me and I've been going to him for about three years now for botox and fillers. He is absolutely great. His staff is very pleasant and professional. He is great with me, listens to my concerns and what i want. I would definetely recommend him to anyone.

I had a procedure done at Premier Plastic Surgery in November 2021 and would not hesitate recommending Dr. Newman to a friend. (I've already been asked!) He and his team are professional, kind, and provide great customer service! They were patient answering my many questions and addressed my concerns.

(I've already been asked!) He and his team are professional, kind, and provide great customer service! They were patient answering my many questions and addressed my concerns. Of note, I'm an RN who has worked in quality and safety for many years and was impressed with the cleanliness and organization of their San Mateo surgical suite. In addition, their before and after procedure processes were meticulous. Sending a BIG THANK YOU to Dr. Newman, Dr. Sun (my anesthesiologist), Windy, Troy, and Dee!! read less

Dr. Newman is a saint! While on vacation, we took our close-to-three-year old to the emergency room with a large laceration to his chin, due to a fall in the bathtub. The doctor who tended to him glued his wound with derma-bond. Two days later the incision was reopen (wound was too large for glue and should've been stitched). Dr.... read moreDr. Newman is a saint! While on vacation, we took our close-to-three-year old to the emergency room with a large laceration to his chin, due to a fall in the bathtub. The doctor who tended to him glued his wound with derma-bond. Two days later the incision was reopen (wound was too large for glue and should've been stitched). Dr. Newman was incredible with him. He was so caring, calm, gentle, and precise. He patiently explained the entire process to my son and cleaned and closed the wound like magic.. the scar line looks as close to perfect as possible. Our family is so incredibly grateful to Dr. Newman for his incredible expertise, knowledge, skill and care. read less

I have been nothing but pleased with the results, and with Dr. Newman and his follow up. He and his staff are pleasant and professional, and he understood and addressed my concerns going into the surgery and post-op. I could not be happier with the results!!

The procedure itself was unbelievably easy - I was amazed, not to mention that it was short and done in the doc's surgery suite. I was very nervous having this done and opted to not get general anesthesia, and Dr. Newman gave me a pill to relax me, then a shot to make me feel "no pain", probably twilight sleep. I was half awake but didn't feel a thing. The doctor used a laser, and it was really a piece of cake. It's the bruising afterwards that was the only downer (I bruise very easily and took some Vit.K pills, but still).
I highly recommend Dr. Newman - great bedside manner, answers all of your questions patiently and takes his time getting it right.
My friend recommended me to him years ago, and she still sees him for Botox and fillers. read less

I met with Dr. Newman in Half Moon Bay, and later had my surgery in Palo Alto, Calif.
The doctor came in and just picked up a pen and drew where he would make his cuts, and off I went into a beautiful, clean and state of the
art surgery room. I was amazed to go from a doctors exam room to this beautiful room.
Dr. Newman is an artist, to be able to just draw what he is going to do and it comes out perfect.
His Anesthesiologist, Dr. Sun was amazing as well, he knew I was nervous about the anesthesia because I always have problems with my veins. Not this time, he numbed me, which I never felt and after there was just a little bruise.
I also must mention his nurse, Dee Mouhouche was always kind, gentle and reassuring.
From the staff to my end result I felt no pain and was always treated with the utmost respect.
Thank you, you will all probably see me again! read less
