As a physician, I believe in making every patient in my practice part of our St. Luke’s family. Going to the doctor is normally not a "fun" experience, but I strive to have every patient leave smiling. I am most proud of my diagnostic abilities; I enjoy diagnosing and managing rare pathologies and providing working solutions for patients who have been unable to find this elsewhere. I am a foot nerd. I have the ability to treat most common and uncommon foot pathologies with a range of conservative and surgical options. I strive to keep patients out of surgery as much as possible, but my surgical toolbox is broad and I can address the myriad of foot and ankle pathologies.
I am a board qualified foot and ankle surgeon and am pursuing full certification in 2022. My specialties within my practice are forefoot and rearfoot pathologies with a concentration in limb salvage and wound care.
Outside of work, I enjoy the outdoors and any activity involving water. Most recently my wife and I find ourselves inundated with our young son, who is a ton of fun and thankfully loves the outside as well. My family is an avid SCUBA family. I formally was a dive instructor and whenever possible you will find me under the water. I also enjoy water skiing, snow skiing, hunting, hiking, and kayaking.

“Dr. Newton is one of the best doctors I have ever had I would not go to anyone else. He was one of the most patient and sweet doctors I have ever had. The staff in his office are also very nice and polite. I would highly recommend his office to everyone.”

“Dr.Newton is an excellent Dr. And Surgeon. He helped me prepare for the eventual outcome of my Bone infection. He had my back every step of the way. When I was able to come back for a visit, felt good seeing Dr. Newton again. Of all my Dr's I see from St. Luke's he has proven he cares for me.”

“As I have very sensitive (ticklish) feet, I was a little nervous about my appointment, as sometimes brushing my own feet against each other tickles me! Yikes! Anyway, the doctor's demeanor, and the professionalism of the staff helped me feel a little less wary. When Dr. Newton said I was the easiest appointment (which he meant in a kind way), I was grateful and appreciated his dealing with the issue on the outer edge of my left foot quickly and efficiently. Beforehand, I thought I would be limping, but I was fine and walked without any discomfort. Yay! I am thrilled! On a side note, there really was no need to go through a lengthy discussion about my health as this was my first time to his office, and my needs were simple.”
