Dr. New is just incredible! She is the only MD in 14 years who listened to me descibe my very specific female issue and identity that it could be a specific nerve in that area causing all of my extreme itching!!! Five other MDs I had seen over the last 14 years (when it began after my hysterectomy) were not even close and none of them ever said anything about possible nerve involvement. Dr. New and the Tx she prescribed has helped me so so much!!! She has significantly Improved my quality of life and I am eternally grateful .

She makes sure you know what is going on with your problems and sends you away feeling hopeful about your condition. What more can you ask for? I would recommend her to anyone!!!
