Newfield David L MD

Dr. Newfield is fine. That is about as much as I can say for his service. I had an abnormal pap and my GP sent me to Dr. Newfield for a gynecological check. I was with the nurses for most of my visit. He simply came in, poked around for a minute and left. He has since made requests for so many visits and appointments only to do the same thing that I am starting to wonder if he is simply in it for the insurance money. I will be looking into a new gyno.
The office is nice but very old-​fashioned. It seems stuck in the 1950s but you can tell that is a purposeful aesthetic. As a young woman, this is not my cup of tea. Not to mention that his office does not accept credit cards. Cash or check or you’re out of luck. Seems strange.
All in all, the doctor and nurses are fine but I am looking for someone firmly in the 21^st century and this is not the place. If you’re in a pinch, you can quickly make appointments here. If you are young and looking for a Dr that will listen to your concerns and understands the life of young and busy women, this is probably not the place for you.

Simply love this doctor. My regular OB referred me to him for a surgical consult regarding pain I was having from two C-​sections. Dr. Newfield was kind, patient, thorough, and immediately scheduled me for an Ultrasound just to make sure there were no other issues. When I came in for the follow up and the ultrasound was clear he immediately set me up for surgery! I was kind of taken aback because I figured it would take a long time to get there. His office had the approval and everything set up, however, in less than a month. The surgery was SO easy and I felt comfortable I was in good hands. We had two follow up visits and took the time to explain everything that we had done to me, complete with pictures! I was just so impressed with his demeanor, knowledge, and kindness. His office staff was friendly and helpful and I had absolutely no complaints at any visit. Also, every office visit had very little wait and I was usually in the waiting room a mere 5 minutes before being called into the exam room.
Can’t say enough great things about Dr. Newfield. If I weren’t so happy with my regular OB, whom I’ve been with for more than 6 years, through the deliveries of two beautiful babies, I would switch to Dr. Newfield in a heartbeat.

He has an amazing bed side manner and so sweet. Very old school in the best sense. A gem of a doctor!

Dr. Newfield, nurses, and front office are all terrific! You never wait long and you get wonderful care here. I have been going to him for several years and this year he delivered our baby boy. Thanks Dr. Newfield!

This doctor should be boycotted. I went to him for over ten years and now he wont take covered cailfornia. Why does he get to have this choice and the rest of us don’t. Bad ethics. He was a good doctor but I think there are just as good if not better out there. They also don’t take credit cards so not only does his office need to move into the future, but could stand some ethics lessons

Thank goodness I found Dr. Newfield! I was having such a bad experience with my previous OB and wanted to find a doctor AND staff that cared about their patience and the difference is night and day. My previous OB was Lantry in Glendale and I really don’t have anything good to say about her, and her staff was just awful. I have only had one appointment with Newfield but he took a detailed history of my last pregnancy and I can’t say enough good things about his amazingly kind, friendly and attentive staff. There was a very short wait which I love too. I finally feel like my baby and I are in good hands.

I understand that no office is ever perfect but I truly have never had a bad experience here. Is the receptionist super friendly — no, but she’s not mean either. Yes, there is a $ 25 charge for same day cancellations — I don’t like it but it’s not the 1^st doctor to charge it. HOWEVER — I will continue to pay the $ 25 and anything else because
Dr. Newfield is amazing! Dr. Newfield caught another dr.‘s misdiagnosis and saved my child’s life… and my life for that matter. Everyday, I am grateful for Dr. Newfield, his office and St. Joseph’s hospital.
I am going nowhere — they have me until their doors close!
Thank you!!!

Dr. Newfield and his staff are fantastic. Excellent care! Emergencies are handled quickly and routine are scheduled fairly. Very through and detailed in care. Rarely have my appointments been delayed and when they were it was due to a hospital emergency, which I completely understand! The office staff are detailed and caring.

This office may have a criminal working there. My wife is completely distraught after forgetting her prescription sunglasses in an exam room. She returned less than 10 minutes later and was told that her glasses were not there. No patients were placed in the room after her and the only one to go into the exam room was an employee of the office. Dr. Newfield was less than receptive and didn’t bother questioning the employee. Don’t leave your property unattended and I would recommend watching the employees too.

Love him. Been going for years. He delivered our baby! He is thorough, prompt, and you never deal with a packed waiting room. He caught a huge mistake my old clinic made when he went through all my paperwork. His staff is very sweet. They have been with him for years which makes me think he’s a good boss as well. I noticed one review said he doesn’t give out birth control pills without a mandatory check up. It’s true but that’s a common practice. Many places I’ve been to through the years do that.

I had been going to this Dr. for 3 – 4 years and realized that there is MUCH better out there! I have to admit Dr. Newfield is amazing, but his front desk clerks are NOT.
I have experienced on many occasions an attitude from Anna, I think her name is. And this last time, I threw in the towel!!! Something unexpected happened and she was not sympathetic at all and charged me a measly $ 25… after all the years we worked together, she lost a patient for $ 25. Also, they still seem very old school from my other experiences, uses the Stainless Steel things and the rooms are out-​dated.
What I liked the most, is I even wrote them a letter and no response! Shocking that you can do business with someone so long, but they treat you like they NEVER saw you before. If you want POOR SERVICE and a good doctor, go here… otherwise I would Unilocal someone else.
I did and I am very happy with my new doctor.

I absolutely adore Dr. Newfield and his front office. I’ve been a patient of his for 20 years now. He’s a very good doctor. Very knowledgable, kind, professional, and thorough. Don’t let the bad review below deter you from seeing him!

I like Dr. Newfield because he is very precautious and detailed as well. Bedside manner is the best I’ve seen, along with professionalism. And his office staff is great. I will continue with Dr. Newfield as long as possible! My best doctor ever.

Dr. Newfield refuses to give birth control pills for more than six months — mandatory checkups twice a year, no matter how healthy you are. His office assistant hung up on me when I called to ask for an extension on pills (my insurance won’t cover a second visit per year). They are utterly inflexible and outright rude… and they don’t take credit cards. I joined Unilocal just to post this review, I was so furious.
Thank God for Planned Parenthood!

Absolutely Love him! he’s great, takes time to go over everything and explains everything to the tee!!! i would deffinitely recommend him!!!

The man has been preserving my uterus for 11 years after being diagnosed with endometriosis at 23! Love him!
