Dr. Newman has the best bedside manner I have ever experienced. This is important, because while doing these procedures you need someone that listens to what you're saying and who will be honest and advise you accordingly.

He is extremely caring, nothing like what you would expect from the top plastic surgeon; many of them are so conceited that you can't even talk to them. Big egos. Not here; I am in deep like with this facility. When someone takes a good 20 years off your appearance, you just have to be grateful and thankful. He does that! I even met a woman there that was around 70, and she didn't look a day over 50 or maybe even less. She looked completely natural, no ridiculous bubble lips or other funny things.

I honestly cannot say enough about this doctor and staff.

Thank you Dr. Newman for raising my confidence and self-esteem. read less

I am very happy and surprised with the results from non surgical fat reduction, using Vanquish and Vela Shape treatments, at Dr. James Newman's office in San Mateo. The results surpassed my expectations. Dr. Newman, Windy He and Elicia Guerrero are professional and caring. My husband is thrilled.

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 was a bit nervous because I haven't been to him before but I trusted my friend. On my first consult, as soon as I met him, I felt at ease. He listened to all of my areas of concern and explained to me what my options were and what he could do for me. 3 weeks later I had my upper and lower blephroplasty done by Dr. Newman. He is amazing, and I have been going to him ever since. The best doctor. read less

Sadly my sister has moved away but I am still a long time client. He is wonderful, his work is wonderful and his staff is wonderful. I have referred him to countless woman and men and will recommend him to you. He is a face man (surgeon) and I believe this is his specialty. He has a very "natural" style and his communication is excellent.
Dr. Newman is the only P.S. that I know of having several non-invasive options for face and body that are available instead of surgery. 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
