Dr. Newman, of course. I am very grateful to be in Dr. Newman's practice - for her expertise, responsiveness, kindness, and helpful explanations. She is an excellent PCP and a lovely person. My nurse, Sharon, was excellent. She was very thorough and shared information about what she was doing that expanded my knowledge and understanding of my care. Darlene at the front desk is always efficient, effective, kind, and helpful. She was especially helpful in getting me the consise version of my lab results that I use to prepare for my appointment. (I have tried to use the MyChart version, but their format does not lend itself to this purpose - quite the contrary.) Ashley got me set up with my next visit and the Summary and Progress Notes. She was kind and patient as I hemmed and hawed about when I could fit an appointment into my crowded schedule. The staff at Artemis is outstanding - always responsive, helpful, and good-natured. I saw Sheila that day as well, but we did not have any interaction other than greeting one another.

Jul 15, 2022

Dr. Newman is an outstanding doctor. I believe I've been with her for 15+ years. I was absolutely devasted when the practice was bought out and she no longer accepted my health insurance. I cried when I told the nurse (who I love), what am I going to do? No one knows me as she does?? Thankfully, a few years later I changed my insurance and without a heartbeat, she took me back as her patient. She is ALWAYS right on top of whatever is needed. She treats me with the highest of respect, listens without rushing or interrupting me, and knows that I advocate for myself. We work like a team. She truly is one of a kind. I pray she practices medicine for a very long time.

Jul 11, 2022

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Valerie Newman! I even went to [...] for a 2nd opinion on something a few years ago, and they said "you are receiving great care!" in reference to Dr. Newman. I will be miserable when she retires - which I am hoping is very far into the future.

Dr. Newman is a phenomenal physician and person. She always finds a way to fit me in for acute situations (like today). I don't know how she does it. She is so caring and helpful. She's an amazing problem-solver. She is good at everything. I feel incredibly fortunate to have her as my primary care provider - especially since I have a complex medical situation. Some PCPs would be daunted by my complex situation. She, however, seems to thrive in the complexity. Her brilliant skill set gets put to the test a lot with my medical situation but she never seems frustrated. She never runs out of ideas or creative approaches. She is truly inspiring. When I might get discouraged in another doctor's hands, I stay hopeful with Dr. Newman because I know I'm in the best hands with her.
