  • Dr. Newman is the BEST! She's so helpful and caring. The absolute best bedside manner and so knowledgeable. She had reviewed the results from our child's cardiologist appointment prior to us coming in, and was able to translate the results to us in layman's terms. We cannot recommend her enough.

  • Very friendly and approachable. Both of my children had appts (back to back) and she gracefully navigated between the two, showing them both the attention and care that they individually needed.

  • As first-time parents we do have many questions. We never feel rushed during our appointments and the doctors always take their time to answer any questions we have. Dr. Newman provided great resources for us as we prepare to introduce foods to our baby. I cannot say enough good things about the practice.

  • We have never seen this provider before this visit. When she printed out the summary of the visit she noticed we were scheduled to see her for my son's well visit in 5 months and she got excited, and honestly I was thrilled. I felt this provider took her time to understand the scope of what was occurring and thoroughly examined my son. She gave us her professional suggestions to do at home and also personal suggests she had done with her kids. I felt understood and seen and appreciated her honesty, explanations and relatability.

  • Dr. Newman was fantastic with both my daughters. She only saw one of them but had my oldest daughter sit on her lap while she examined my younger daughter. It was such an easy and comfortable appointment

  • Appreciated Dr Newman's thoughts on the COVID vaccine. Also I was happy that she told my son not to vape, do marijuana or anything because of the risks of anything happening these days with addition of other drugs that my child wouldn't know about. At the age of 17 they are exploring and this was important.

About the Patient Experience Rating System

The Patient Experience Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions shown above from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score. We are committed to true transparency. However, to ensure the comments are fair and correctly attributed, we review each one before posting to the website. We exclude entire comments that disclose patient’s protected health information, are off-topic, or include other confidential or inappropriate content. Comments will appear on provider bios only if providers have a minimum number of comments. Comments are shared internally for education purposes to ensure that we are doing our very best for the patients and families for whom we are privileged to care. The comments are submitted by patients and families and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not reflect the views of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
