Armand Newman, MD

Great, knowledgeable physician, friendly, caring office staff. I have been seeing Dr. Newman for awhile, and he has kept my skin looking clear and healthy. Friends frequently tell me I have nice skin. He’s kept me looking years younger. The sunscreen is the best too.
Thank you Dr. Newman!

Dr was good and spent lots of time, but all in order to come up with many cosmetic plans and $$$. I did’t like money making /​pressure tactic. Won’t go again.

Had a skin issue between my toe. Got appointment same day which was only thing good. He comes in acting like he in in a rush. Diagnosed me as having a wet corn. Sold me a cream which was $ 80 sold at his office. Then his assistant says the doctor recommends he does a small surgery that will leave a small hole in my toe basically for the rest of my life. I says no just the cream. After 1 week using the cream with no results. I stopped taking it and just had a feeling my case was not what he says it was. After paying him $ 300 for a wrong diagnosis.
I went to a same day clinic in Hollywood with a general doctor who does not even specialize in the skin. She told me it is just a foot fungus that is very common and any foot fungus cream will help. I only paid her $ 75. I then went to Walgreens and bought crème for $ 8. Immediately the skin got better.
So be careful of these doctors they will upsell you and if they can do a surgery they will even if you dont need it.

If there was less than a star I would’ve rated him… because he doesn’t even deserve one star… An awful experience with this crook… The only thing he did was pushing his so called treatments and his creams down my throat… He doesn’t like writing prescriptions and he definitely won’t cure you or even try to help you… all he wants is your MONEY… I was smart enough not to fall in his TRAP… I feel that I wasted my hard earned $ 45 as a copay… PEOPLE stay away from this man he will take your money and your time and won’t cure you

1^st visit was in relative time, went into a room, he looked at my rash, called in a nurse who he then had rub some of this cream (his own make) on it. That was the highlight. Upon leaving he recommended the cream (his own make), so I bought some of this cream @ $ 60. Worked alright, but I had to keep using it otherwise the rash would come back. I bought it once more and realized this guy doesn’t want to fix me, he wants me to keep giving him my hard earned cash! F this!
2^nd visit.Pass.If you enjoy waiting in the front area while he talks to people (presumably family) who come visit and then he shows them around, has some fun chatting about who knows what. I waited almost an hour for him, finally I spoke up and was taken to a room where he showed up with some lame excuse.
Then, he wanted to charge me over $ 400 for a pin prick and squeeze, with probably some rubbing alcohol. I told him that doesn’t sounds right, then he went to $ 200! WTF, me thinks not. Told him I’m going for a second opinion and never turned back. The audacity of these people. I will never recommend anyone to this weasel.
SAVE YOUR TIME & MONEY!

I was recommended to Armand by a very good friend and highly respected physician in Beverly Hills, and rightfully so. Dr. Newman and his nurses are not only great at what they do, but how they do it. The doctor himself is one of the most kind and caring physicians you’ll ever meet. He is a complete professional and made me feel 100% comfortable discussing my skin care concerns. After having a laser hair treatment done with a bit discomfort the first session, his nurses went out of their way to make sure the second treatment went well by adjusting the session to cater to my sensitivity. I look forward to continuing my treatments with Dr. Newman and his staff and will most definitely use them for any other skin care concerns I may have in the future.

I love Dr. Armand Newman’s products they are the BEST!!!

Dr Armand was very short and to the point with me, which I liked. His assistant was really great! she was knowledgeable and put me at ease. I had to see him because of a curious red mark (which turned out to be a spider bite); some skin discoloration, and mole removal. I felt very comfortable. overall, good experience.
His own creams and medication — I am stil on the fence on. I have to see how well they work before I give a true review.
I will see how this goes… I see him again in 2 weeks.

Love the front and back office staff. Dr. Newman is extremely frank. If you are an overly sensitive person… he’s not the doctor for you. The office will work with you and your insurance Co. (If your insurance covers the treatment). Get ready for a WAIT.

I went for a consultation yesterday with Dr. Armand Newman and was very impressed. He sat down with me and did a full body scan of my moles. Due to the amount and darkness of the moles, his precaution in taking a biopsy of one my moles made me feel at ease that he is looking out for my best interests. I just changed from my other dermatologist because I thought that their annual visit was very cursory and I did not get the attention that I would expect after having had to wait for a visit. The ladies working at the front were very responsive and professional. For the biopsy, I had to get a shot in the mole and Sparkle was kind as she understood and catered to my fear of needles. I am excited to return and am overall very satisfied with my whole experience. If you have any questions about how good this doctor is, you will see the people that are his regular patients fill up his waiting room and always seem to come out very satisfied.

Total disappointment! Walked out baffled! Waited for a hour and literally had a 5 minute consultation.

this doctor is fantastic. I ALWAYS have bones to pick with doctors, but this guy is an exception. He treats you like a person, not a symptom he’s assigning treatment. He knows what he’s doing, all across the board. He is fantastic. His solutions aren’t superficial. Did I say he is great? This doctor is great. Do not hesitate coming to him with your dermatology concerns.

I am baffled by the other reviewers glowing opinion of this doctor. This was the worst doctor’s office experience of my entire life. The front office is slow and incompetent, and the recommended skin treatments are either expensive, ineffective lasers or products created by the doctor that cost ten times as much as they would in a drugstore yet contain the exact same ingredients ($ 35 10% benzyl peroxide face wash that can be purchased in the drugstore for $ 3).
I waited an hour and a half to see the doctor, and then he spent literally 2 minutes with me and rudely left suddenly as he received a phone call from who I assumed was one of his children.
Not to mention, the front desk told me before I saw the doctor that I could see him without the usual $ 175 office visit fee, but that I would have to pay for any prescriptions or laser treatments that he recommended. I said that I wouldn’t expect anything to be complimentary for acne treatment beyond a consultation. Later, I received a bill for the $ 175 that I was specifically told that I would not have to pay, and the front office tells me that they’ve billed my insurance, and as I’ve not met my deductible, the $ 175 has been applied to my deductible, and I have to pay the office. The office was not supposed to bill my insurance in the first place after they gave me their word that the office visit would be complimentary!
Side note: for being in Beverly Hills, the appearance and cleanliness of this office is also atrocious. The décor is decades old.
Since I’ve never left a doctor’s office because of an unreasonable waiting time, as half an hour turned into an hour, I resolved my cognitive dissonance by telling myself that I’d already waited this long, so I may as well wait a few more minutes and see if this doctor can actually help me, as another reviewer raved about him, but after this experience, I will certainly walk out of any doctor’s office without hesitation.

So here I am writing a review for my pimple doctor. I’ll spare you all the gory details and get right to the good stuff. If your like me and suffer from any type of skin problems than I recommend you make a visit to Dr. Armand Newman. I’ve been seeing Dr. Newman now for a few months and I must say my face hasnt been this clear since… well the last time I saw Dr. Newman.
For as long as I can remember I’ve dealt with acne. I lived with it as a teenager and then in college got it under control with the help of Dr. Newman… that was in 1998. So now many moons later… here I am as a full fledge grown up dealing with skin issues again. Knowing that I cant live with a paper bag over my head I decided last month to go see Dr. Newman again and wow!
Its only been 2 visits and 2 months but he was able to work the same type of miracles on my skin as he did back in 1998. No giant stress pimples, no minihormonal pimple picnics, no angry black heads… nothing. Okay not quite nothing but darn near close to nothing.
Its been a while since I liked my skin but with Dr. Newmans help… Im getting pretty damn close to loving it,
