Dr. Newell has no equal!! She is amazing, helpful and will sit and talk to you and explain anything and everything. Teresa in her office is also amazing. Love them both. Teresa is so helpful when I call. She almost always answers her phone when I call and if I have to leave a message she returns my call ASAP. I have been to other rheum doctors and after the first visits I never went back. These other doctors had no time for me. I'm so very happy my wonderful PCP referred me to Dr. Newell. I now have answer to my health concerns. Before no rheum doctor would take the time to even listen to me. For years I have suffered and now at least I know why. Thank you so much Dr. Sara Newell.

Dr. Newell both my rheumatologist and my daughter's (I am my daughter's guardian) rheumatologist for several years. I have found her to be extremely helpful and considerate in treating us. She has been able to treat both of our rheumatological conditions and has knowledge of any other condition we may have. She listens to any problem we bring to her and tries her best to find a solution. She asks about our life at home and work and understands how that may affect our physical conditions. Her staff has been considerate and helpful in scheduling appointments. They have been able to work me in on several occasions when my appointment was not due yet I needed help. Both Dr. Newell and her staff rate very high with us.

Very helpful in explaining things in and easy to understand manner. Extremely friendly and acomodating, and never pushy. Dr. Newell is one of those who genuinely seems to care rather than just getting you through as quickly as possible.

I love that fact that you can go in sit down and tell her everything. She will LISTEN and not look at you like, you dont know what youre talking about. I can ask her anything I want and she will answer me outright and not sugar coated. A lot of Physician seem to go on the theory that you dont really want to know some stuff and/or youre not itelligent enough to understand medical terminology, but she doesnt treat you like that. I refuse to go to doctors who think they know everything and I know nothing. I have to right to make decision on my medical treatment with informed information and I get that from Dr. Sara Newell. It is not listed on this website, but Dr. Newell also has a second speciality as a Board Certified Rheumatologist. Being a Diabetic this is especially good for me for her to have two specialties. She can treat my arthritis while still knowing what to do and what not to do that will aggrevate my diabetes.
