Newton Peter M MD Orthopedic Surgery Medical Group

Dr Peter Newton… hmmm, where should I begin? Well, if you want to be treated like cattle, wait in his office for hours and hours to be seen, spend less than 10 minutes in the room with him as he does nothing, then he is the doctor for you! I am very surprised this guy hasn’t been sued yet. What a joke of a doctor. How does he even have a license? Horrible horrible horrible. He did a surgery on me on my right wrist and it did not help one bit. I am now seeing a REAL doctor. Please avoid this sorry excuse for a doc. Don’t go! You have been warned.

I did not wanna write anything. but this is so crazy .that I have to write. I was disabled for 5 yrs… been treated with so many dr. he was one of the best.2.I been seen by a lots of Dr .but never took that fast (3mins)last time I was there they spend almost the whole day.. very very good DOCTOR

This guy is probably the worst doctor I have been too, soooo rude, so negative… the wait time is ridiculous, he never diagnosed me because he actually never bothered to examine my injury. Don’t really know how to put into words how awful he is.

As i sit in a room waiting for a painful test that I’ve already had, i look around this «Beverly Hills» office and think…” what a dive! «the walls are filthy, it’s completely outdated. Not a turn off on that alone, until you couple it with:
Tests that conveniently must be done by his office. He’s rude, has the personality of a flea. no, a drop of paint. no bedside manner, no empathy, spends a flash of time with you, and the wait is horrendous. What’s the point in making an appt? Worse than Disneyland. At least there, the wait may be long and the ride very short, BUT YOU EXPECT THAT AT AN AMUSEMENT PARK NOT AT A DOCTOR’S APPT THAT YOU MAKE A MONTH IN ADVANCE, WHERE YOUR LIFE CAN BE CHANGED FOREVER.
Did i mention, parking is 1.50 every 15 minutes max $ 15. They don’t validate and if you find something at the meter, don’t bother because it’s 1 hr max (half of your wait time) and you WILL get towed. Basically, this is a factory. You’re nothing more than a dollar sign. The staff can be nice, but obviously has never been through any of the tests or pain that you have as a patient. I expressed concern about a test, had my attorney call and the receptionist made a comment to another girl when i showed up. Yes, i heard you.
The thought of coming here, fighting traffic, waiting forever, paying for parking only to be treated like crap causes me serious anxiety. I shouldn’t feel like they’re doing ME a favor.
I’m at an hour wait now. Total time in the office was 2 ½ hours. Since I had to run out and get back to my life, but needed to answer a questionnaire, I was told someone would call me. That was in March…6 messages later, still no response. Yes, people, my life is in your hands, so how about a little respect, professionalism, or just a bit of good customer service?
I HIGHLY recommend you go somewhere else. No one cares about the patients here. BUT the doc is well dressed and wearing some nice watches that i helped pay for. Tell your attorney to find someone else as an AME! I’ve talked to several other unfortunate patients of this office and the sentiments and experiences are the same.

Don’t go to a knee surgeon for shoulder surgery!
I’d seen handsome Dr. Newton before via a referral from long term knee doc in the same suite — for nerve testing in long term messed up leg. So, when I fell and shattered my humerus, and emergency room sent me home to look for a surgeon, I phoned Dr. Newton for a referral. His receptionist confidently told me Dr. Newton does shoulders too. He fixed my fracture with steel rods but severed enough soft tissue to leave me with a subluxed shoulder limited to about 40% range of motion, that aches from the strain of gravity. Consulted half a dozen surgeons in as many years. No one could offer any solution until one suggested hemi-​arthroplasty (partial shoulder replacement) assessed by studies as being only 50% effective, so I’ve given up hope for relief. My condition may be the inevitable outcome of my procedure but I can’t help thinking I’d have done better with a surgeon who had more experience with this joint. The pain and stress get worse as time goes by.

Dr. Newton is a professional fraud, the state should investigate him! Went to his Santa Ana office, a lot of wait for no reason over 5 hours while actual xrays and examination was not even 30 minutes! He abuses his authority and I agree with other that if your lawyer sends you there you need to FIRE your lawyer! One thing you need to know is that you can bring one person with you is legal and they cannot deny it! You can also argue with Dr. Peter Newton and also if his report has a lot of lies or different stuff of what you report make a note and argue ASAP! He is intimidating, he does not listen to his patient and everyone needs to report him to the medical board and «
.gov», if you want something to really happen and change things, because on my visit, I saw people that were abused not just me, many people and on top of that he is getting paid for it! Keep copies of all the papers you file, take pictures or request copies right there! Maybe going after his employees (by legal means or if you have some info to expose about them) they might open up their mouth and talk about him and his practices! My next appointment I will definitely have somebody with me as a witness, and you attorney should let you know about all this! The state provides help, and they should be better than «him», that arrogant Peter Newton who calls himself a doctor! I wonder did he pay for his degree? I do not believe they teach you this kind of behavior at the University!

I was referred by a friend after going to 2 other doctors who couldn’t find the right diagnosis, he did my shoulder surgery and finally I got my life back.

This doctor and I use that term loosely will ruin your life if you do not speak up and question him and his diagnoses. Once he is questioned he back peddles and you can not get a real or straight answer. He stated on 2 different reports and gave me a report to return to work and all 3 reports contradicted each other. He will ask you how you feel and spend maximum time limit of no more than 6 minutes with you and on that he will come to a conclusion. He does not even suggest an FCE report. I feel for the non English speaking people that are sent to him as he must really destroy them. I think and truly believe you would get accurate and better medical diagnoses at County Hospital!

I am just giving him a star because I am not able to give him none. This guy is the most arrogant, unprofessional, heartless person… go anywhere but there.
I think that says enough.

I was sent to this office by my attorney who I also left (Peyman Rahnana). It took 6 hours my first visit. Dr. Newton spent about 3 minutes with me. He confirmed what I already knew from being in the hospital for a week, that 8 ribs were broken, and my sternum was broken in two. But when I asked him how we were going to follow up with the broken bones in my face that required 4 titanium plates, he said, «I don’t deal with bones in the face.» His job was to send me to other specialists to deal with those injuries, and he never did. On subsequent visits, I never even saw him. I just met with some guy who asked me how I was feeling each time. Do not go to this guy. If you have a worker’s comp or P.I. attorney who sends you to him, I’d question the quality of your attorney as well.

I went to the office on 8641 Wilshire. They made me wait over 45 minutes even though I was early to the appointment. Once the dr. was in the room he saw me for 2 minutes and that’s all folks! He was in and out! They do not validate parking and the offices are not the nicest.
