Fredric Newman MD FACS

I broke my nose during a work event, an Dr. Newman not only repaired it but also addressed my breathing issues. I read reviews before going in to see him along with 2 other surgeons but again I think some people have unrealistic expectations of what they want done. He was very insightful and addressed all of my concerns. My surgery was done on site which made it so much easier than what I've dealt with in the past having to go in to the hospital. I would recommend Dr. Newman time and time again.

If you want the best of the best, look no further. Dr. Newman did my rhinoplasty three weeks ago and I cannot express how pleased I have been with the entire process start to finish so far. I broke my nose years ago and was left with a noticeable bump. Dr. Newman was upfront and honest with the things he could change and the things he couldn’t. He was very thorough and confident. I explained that my main concern was that my nose would change too much and my distinctness would be taken away. However, after consulting with Dr. Newman, I knew his goals were the same as mine, and I fully trusted that he wanted to take the nose I had and make minor changes to improve it. I was very anxious leading up to surgery, but Dr. Newman and his entire staff were so good about calming me down and ensuring me I was in good hands. The nurses were easy to talk to and caring, and the administrative staff were always friendly and excited for me. I kept telling Dr. Newman how worried I was about what I believed would be inevitable pain post surgery, but he was certain I would not be in much pain at all. He explained that he uses gentle techniques and takes his time to complete the surgery meticulously, making recovery much less painful for his patients. He said I could experience pressure from swelling and stuffiness, and I might have symptoms of a head cold and headaches. It was hard for me to actually believe that I would not be in pain, especially because I heard from various other people who had rhinoplasty that the procedure was very painful. I prepared myself for the worst despite Dr. Newman’s assurance that I would not be in pain, only some discomfort. The day of surgery I was very panicky. I was worried about waking up with a whole new face I didn’t recognize and being in a lot of pain. However, Dr. Newman and the nurses just kept telling me it’s no big deal and that I was going to be so happy with the results. It was so nice being able to go into the office that I had already been to a few times before being admitted to a surgery suite, where I changed and prepped for surgery. I was in a familiar place with familiar people, which helped ease my nerves. Having a surgery center connected to the office was really something I enjoyed. I had the undivided attention of all of the nurses and Dr. Newman, unlike at a hospital where nurses and doctors have to tend to multiple patients at once. Right before I went into the operating room, Dr. Newman came to see me and was so at ease. He wasn’t at all fazed by my anxiousness, and just assured me once again I would be pleasantly surprised by how I felt after surgery. When I woke up, I was shocked…I felt no pain! I was stuffy from the packing in my nose, but nothing else! I figured it must have been from the numbing shots they gave me during surgery, and again, I prepared myself for the worst and assumed I would start feeling a lot of pain once they wore off. The days went by and I kept waiting for the pain to kick in, but it never did! Dr. Newman was exactly right…I was swollen and stuffy which made it uncomfortable to eat and talk, but never was I in pain. The only time I took Tylenol was to help the headaches I was getting from the pressure of the swelling, otherwise, it was completely unnecessary. I’m still amazed by how easy this surgery was. I’ve had gallbladder surgeries, tonsillectomy and my wisdom teeth out, and my rhinoplasty was easier than all of them. Three weeks post op and I am healing great! I am exited to see how my healing progresses and the finished product. I in no way look like a different person, and have already gotten so many compliments from skeptical family members. They are all so surprised at how good it looks only a few weeks after and have completely changed their attitude towards the whole process because of how easy and good the surgery turned out. Dr. Newman’s level of skill, professionalism and positive doctor/patient relationship is apparent every step of the way. I couldn’t recommend he and the aesthetic surgery center enough!
