Dr. Newman's Reviews

Jolee E.

Dr Newman has been amazing for the almost 3 years I’ve been working with him. After basically a total knee reconstruction, I feel more confident and stable and able to do things I didn’t before. Him and Andrew Gardner were always super helpful and informative and answered all my questions. Would recommend them to anyone!

Jaron C.

Dr. Newman explained the injury - the rehab- and the next steps in a way that put me and my son at ease. He’s incredibly thoughtful and compassionate and I am grateful we found Dr. Newman for our second opinion.

Valerie G.

Dr. Newman and Staff were very friendly and made me feel at ease!

Cynthia S.

Well I have decided not to come back. The first visit was very short he showed me what was wrong very to the point but I felt like he didn't wanna know more about me. I get it you have a lot of patience but what's a normal in my world is that they get to know the patient and then go from there he showed me the pictures and what I have and tested my knee and told me what it was and then asked me are you gonna get it done or not when should I schedule you? Or he told me to sleep on it. I felt rushed I felt no empathy and I explained I don't have the right insurance and it was like well the ball is in your court at your decision and I know that . The second visit was better his associate was more informative more in tuned to what I was feeling began to talk to me like an old person and then talk to me like a young person. I can live with it forever or I can have it done and be in debt forever or live with it. I felt once again rushed pressured and I'm in the driver seat. I asked for exercises did not get any they were not willing to talk about the financial part of it which was my biggest concern. So I had to rewrite my comments because I was gonna come back and get a brace but $1000 for a brace that I probably won't wear enough is not worth it to me. I am 65 but I'm not old enough to be treated like a elderly person and that's exactly what I felt like. No small talk no conversations to speak of he showed me my film but no solid answers so I am not coming back I am not getting the brace and until they have better bedside manner and more empathy for people that I've never gone through this before I don't recommend them to anybody and I can't afford a $7000 surgery that will inevitably give me arthritis whether I do it or not that's the main topic I was told if I do it I get arthritis if I don't do it I'll get arthritis so what's the difference. It was not relaxing it was not pleasant I'm not coming back i'm not gonna do a damn thing I'm gonna flip and live with it and if it does get worse I certainly will go to somebody else maybe a female doctor that's what I was suggested by my sister they are more in tune with the female body than the high mighty men I suppose. So take this comment and run with it or ignore it I don't care but I am not coming back they need to treat the older people a little more gentle sorry it was so long I'm adding to it I changed my mind I'll let you know maybe three times as a charm the receptionist were very kind I'm just waiting to hear a comment back from Mr. Newman on how it could be better thank you

Barbara B.

Dr. Newman and his staff are a treasured find with superior competence, excellence in patience care, and the true compassion that brings contentment.

Rob D.

Justin has been awesome. Both my wife and I have seen him for knee issues. We have had great experiences with different treatment scenarios. He is super knowledgeable and informative when discussing the different options and has a no nonsense approach to the entire process. Very refreshing!

Cheyenne H.

I couldn’t ask for a better supporter and doctor through both surgeries than Dr. Newman has done for me.

Jeff H.

I recently had a hamstring tendon tear and was referred to Dr. Newman's practice. They were highly recommended by my referring doctor. Every contact I've had within the practice thus far has been outstanding. Both Justin and his PA Andy have clearly explained my options and expectations for my upcoming surgery. No sugar coating, just the facts. I'm very confident that they will get this broken old guy back up and going full speed.

Billy B.

Dr. Newman surgically repaired my son Matthias’ torn ACL/MPFL. Dr. Newman takes a personal and serious interest in the progress, recovery and
healing post operation. If you’re an active Coloradoan of any age, please go and see him if you have any chronic knee issues.

Karla W.

Dr. Newman did a great job explaining the results of my MRI for a torn tendon and clearly outlined the next steps. He took his time and thoroughly answered all of my questions. I highly recommend him’

Tyler W.

I've never come across a more attentive doctor who is willing to take time and listen to what is actually going on with your injury. I have a complicated knee case that I've been dealing with for almost two years. I requested I get a second opinion after my original orthopedic doctor said there was no more he could do. I am sure glad I was able to meet with Dr. Newman. In the two appointments I've had with him, he's listened and provided more feedback than all of the other doctors I've seen combined. We created a plan to take care of my knee and now I'm hoping for a nice outcome and a brighter future!

Chris J G.

Dr. Newman was highly recommended by a friend who works for an orthopedic device company. I was seeing him for a second opinion on my torn acl and other ligaments in my knee. He really took the time to thoroughly explain my injury and outline the options available. He ultimately recommended conservative treatment in hopes of avoiding surgery. Really glad I went to see him.

Audra B.

Dr Newman knew exactly what to do for my
Hip, explained it really well, and I was in and out of the office pretty fast!

Charles G.

Very knowledgeable and great customer facing communication. Actually cares about his patients. As a Fomer Marine, with knee issues, I greatly appreciated the diagnosis.

Clark G.

My wife Susan always receives the best care here. Would recommend Dr!. Newman and his staff. Love how they care and always take the time for your needs, always a smile.

Deborah S.

Dr. Newman came highly recommended by a long term family friend and medical professional in the orthopedic field for 30 years. I tore my ACL a month ago and had surgery 3 weeks later. Dr. Newman evaluated me and gave me his expert opinion on my options with thoughtful consideration of my overall health, goals, age, and tailored the surgery to me. Surgery went amazing and I’m already doing great 9 days out. I can feel the stability in my knee already. In the past, I tore my other ACL and have had 2 other minor knee surgeries elsewhere. This time around I feel my care was better and the process was smoother. OCC staff are amazing and I was taken care of every minute at the OCC Surgery Center at Inverness. Dr. Newman is an expert in orthopedics and the best in town. His track record speaks for itself. I recommend Dr. Newman 100% and would not go to any other orthopedic surgeon in the future.

Jud B.

Dr. Newman always provides top kitchen no nonsense advice and care. He makes an honest assessment and then provides his options and allows me to make an informed decision. Simply the best of the best.

Pat D.

Dr. Newman does a great job at explaining medical terminology in terms that I can understand.

Stephen C.

Dr. Newman is very knowledgeable and decisively advised me of the best game plan for dealing with my shoulder condition. I appreciate his frankness. I highly recommend him.

Heidi A.

Very impressed with Dr. Newman, seems very knowledgeable and provided a great treatment path forward for my son.

Phillip B.

Dr Newman has always shown, as they say “good bedside manner “. He really cares how you feel when he asks you and gives the best possible care. I highly recommend.

Felisa J.

The office is really nice, the staff are friendly and kind and Dr. Newman was great! He thoroughly listened to my history and symptoms and clearly explained my x-ray results while also giving me realistic outcomes and treatment. I finally have hope of real pain relief.

Stephanie E.

Dr. Newman is incredible. I had a difficult case. He treated me with compassion, respect and professionalism. I can’t wait to get back to All of my activities!

Darlene K.

Thank you. Everything explained with reference to my hip. Highly recommended.

Jennifer M.

Amazing physician!! Dr Newman and his P.A. were both so kind and patient. They spent a lot of time with me and explained everything thoroughly.

Matt L.

Dr Newman, Andy, and the rest of the team have been amazing and my daughter’s surgery could not have gone any better so far. We really trust and value OCC so far!!

Carrie H.

Dr Newman has a great way to talk with patients. He explains everything, makes sure you understand, gives you options and makes sure you're happy with the plan. He was personable, friendly, and I never once questioned how he was handling my care (which is honestly rare for me).

Denise

Dr. Newman and Andy are the best Ortho. team. I have never had a bad experience and their care is spot on , whether it's surgery or PT. The front desk staff are friendly and efficient. The back staff are friendly and compassionate.

Bobby S.

Absolutely the best Ortho Doctor I have even seen. I've broken my body over the years, and Dr Newman is the easiest to deal with, has a common sense approach to medicine and listens to his patients. His staff is great and he shows great leadership and knowledge. This upcoming surgery is actually very exciting and I am looking forward to it, and that has never happened with multiple other doctors and surgeries.

Steve S.

Dr. Justin Newman and P.A. Andy Gardner are hands down the greatest two you’ll ever find! They both helped me when I broke my leg and now they fixed my shoulder. You will not find anyone better!

Carrie B.

Dr. Newman is competent and personable. I got answers to my questions and a game plan for recovery.

booper C.

Dr. Newman is the best orthopedist I've seen for my complicated knees. I've had numerous surgeries. Dr Newman takes his time, is a kind physician, a caring physician, and takes the time to explain imaging, procedures, etc. I'm beyond impressed with the care I've received from Dr. Newman and his PA Andy. Thank you.

M R.

Karen H.

Dr Newman was professional, confident and caring. I would highly recommend him!

Janice R.

Next day appointment after referral from PC provider. Nice office, well staffed with knowledgeable staff. Onsite X-ray nice. Dr. Newman’s bedside manner very reassuring. His detailed description of my ailment was appreciated. Didn’t seem to be in a rush. Hope I don’t need his care in the future, but he’s an exceptional doctor! His mom should be proud.

Matt H.

I have had the pleasure of being treated by Dr. Newman’s team on several occasions. From the moment I first walked through the door, I was certain I was in capable hands. Dr. Justin Newman, along with his dedicated team member Andrew Gardner, provided me with top-notch care for a recent shoulder injury. Their approach was not only comprehensive and empathetic but also highly professional. The teams expertise in orthopedics shines through in their thorough diagnosis and carefully crafted treatment plan. Dr. Newman and his team took the time to explain my condition in terms that were easy to understand and outlined a clear path to recovery. Their meticulous attention to detail and unwavering commitment to patient care truly set them apart.
Thanks to their efforts, I am now on the road to recovery and feeling better than ever. I highly recommend Dr. Newman and Andrew Gardner to anyone in search of exceptional orthopedic care. Their dedication to their patients’ well-being is not just commendable, it’s extraordinary, and I am deeply grateful for their help.

Justin J.

Outside of having one of the best first names, Dr. Newman is as professional and knowledgeable as they come. He was very patient with my barrage of questions, and I felt that he and his staff put the patient first. My appointment started on time, and I was not waiting long to meet with Dr. Newman. X-rays were taken, and I was checked out with with instructions as to my next steps in less than 30 mins. Highly recommend Dr. Newman for anyone trying to remain active in anything sport/activity that they have a passion for.

Amanda H.

I always enjoy going to see Dr. Newman. He’s patient, kind and thoroughly explains everything. I can always expect to leave with a plan.

Nathan D.

Dr. Newman and his time provided outstanding and timely service. Dr. Newman has X-ray services in-office that prevented me from making several unnecessary trips to another radiology visit. He was able to use state of the art diagnostic equipment to give me several well thought out courses of action and provided me with the tools to come up with a treatment that best suited my lifestyle. I highly recommended Dr. Newman.
