Dr New is very professional, included me in every step of my exam and explained in detail what I was seeing and what my upcoming surgery will most likely look like. She in detail told me what my recovery will look like and gave me a bag of things I will want to use so I can heal the best way. She is a great listener and she cares. I can tell by her voice, disposition, listening to me and her responses. She leaves no rock unturned. I would not see anyone else. I was so thrilled when she announced 2 years ago that she wanted to do the procedures for my HPV 16. I trust her explicitly.

The doctor, did a great job with the surgery I had in mid-November! T At this visit in December, she explained my follow-up care and use of medication thoroughly.

Dr New is outstanding. I travel from Knoxville to see her. She Is kind, makes you feel at ease, and genuinely cares about her patients. She is clearly an expert in her field-something I've been unable to find closer to home. So thankful for Dr. New!

This was a very emotional visit for me, and I'm so thankful to have Dr. New as my provider, it was the first time I felt seen, understood and validated. Dr. New made me feel like a human, she looked me in the eye, made sure she understood me and explained everything. I left that appointment feeling so much lighter. She is absolutely fantastic I can not stress that enough. Hands down the best experience I've ever had with a physician.
