Ankle/Foot Problem - Non-surgical | Foot & Ankle Surgery | Fractures | Ingrown Toenails | PodiatryAs 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.

“This was hands down the most helpful appointment I have gone to for foot drop in the past 7 years. I have been dealing with nerve damage and paralysis In my foot since delivering my almost 7 yo son and I have begged for help and not received It from other places. Within 5 minutes , the dr had a plan and It seams so well executed. I finally have actual hope of being able to play with my son and It was all due to this dr and his staff. I can't even begin to explain the level of happiness I left his office with, something I've also never experienced. I have test set up, I have physical therapy set up. He was understanding of me not wanting to take pain meds and gave me a brace to stretch the necessary muscles everyday. Sometimes I feel like I can't put words into sentences to explain something well enough and this is one of those times. I can't say enough great things about my first experiences with St. Luke's !”

March 10, 2025
“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.”
