Everyone who works at this office is kind, patient, and knowledgeable. I truly appreciate Dr. Newman and all the staff. Dr. Everette did all my follow ups and she is so sweet and was always waiting for my arrival. I rarely if ever waited for a follow up appointment. Punctuality is so important and they do not waste your time here. Brian was excellent at explaining any concerns I had before my procedure and during the healing process. Jane is also wonderful to work with. I traveled over an hour each time to get there and occasional would be running late but they never made me feel bad about it so long as I gave them a call to let them know. Great customer service is rare these days and you will get the best customer service at this office. You will not regret choosing Newman Lasik Center for your Lasik needs. Thanks for everything! read more

Amazing process, staff is all super cool. Ended up getting LASIK and was 80% recovered within 24 hours. Now at my 2 week mark, fully recovered and have 20/15 vision! Thank you guys read more

Dr. Newman did a great job taking care of me and my vision is so much better, highly reccomend!

I had my LASIK procedure done, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The staff was friendly, transparent, and answered every question I had during the consultation. The actual procedure was surprisingly quick -- and I was already seeing clearly the next day. My vision is now Mono vision and the freedom of not dealing with contacts or glasses has seriously improved my daily life. As a Reg Nurse i'm on computers a lot and my days off i enjoy the outdoors. I experienced mild dry eyes for a couple of weeks (which they told me to expect), but the lubricating drops handled it easily. If you're on the fence about LASIK, I highly recommend getting a consultation here. Professional team, clean facility, and results that genuinely exceeded my expectations. read more

A week in a half ago I received LASIK treatment in both eyes from Dr. Newman and I am already beyond pleased with my results! The initial consultation to decide if I was even a candidate for LASIK eye surgery went great, with the front desk staff and other supporting staff being incredible friendly and helpful. I was able to book my surgery for the following month and received several follow up messages reminding me of what to bring the day of surgery, which was very helpful. The actual procedure itself was fast and Dr. Newman was incredibly soothing, guiding me through on what to expect every step of the way. I get really bad medical anxiety and his calm and reassuring presence made the procedure so much more pleasant. The recovery process has been fantastic and my vision is amazing! I feel like my eyes got upgraded to HD! I had read that some common side effects could be dry eyes and light sensitivity in the days to come, but those symptoms have gone away quickly and I am absolutely loving my new vision. I would highly recommend scheduling your LASIK eye surgery with Dr. Newman! The office also offers 24 months of financing with no interest for those who qualify, so having this payment option has also been fantastic. read more

I can not express the amount of gratitude I have for Dr. Newman and his office staff. Such an amazing experience I have with my Lasik surgery. I walked into his office with being nervous and having a million questions. My prescription is a -6.00 sphere with -2.25 cylinder. Not being able to see clearly without glasses my whole life has been a struggle. But Dr. Newman and ALL of his staff made me feel so comfortable and answered all the questions that I had. Surgery was such a breeze with no pain what so ever. I sat back up after surgery and was able to see so clear i couldn't stop the water works. Thank you for changing my life for the better!! read more

6 years ago I got LASIK done here and I still am soooo happy with the results!!! I had -4.50 and -3.75 with astigmatism and I chose the option for night vision too. Dr. Newman was so kind and his energy was calm but upbeat. The whole procedure itself took about 10 minutes and he talked me through it the whole time. Truly a life changing experience to be able to see without contacts or glasses. I highly recommend Dr. Newman and his team, I wouldn't go anywhere else! Oh and 5 months after my surgery I actually fell and hurt one of my eyes. Dr. Newman did post-op check up appointments for me re-checking my vision and ended up doing a free revision to my eye even though I was the one who messed it up and not him! Talk about a doctor who really cares and goes the extra mile to take care of his patients. Just amazed with the whole process and Newman Lasik center, and my review is long overdue! Have you been thinking about getting Lasik done, this is where you want to go! read more

My experience was amazing from start to finish! The entire staff made me feel so comfortable, informed, and cared for throughout the whole process. From the consultation to the actual procedure and post-op care, everything was smooth and professional. I felt safe the entire time. LASIK has truly been one of the best decisions I've ever made -- I'm so grateful I chose this place. I can finally see clearly without glasses or contacts, and it still blows my mind every day. Thank you so much to the team for making it such a positive, life-changing experience! read more

I had PRK here almost 2 months ago and I am thrilled with the results. For my follow-ups, the office has been very responsive and accommodating! I'm very happy with my eyesight and very comfortable with the cost of the procedure. Thank you to the team for everything! read more

Great experience with everyone who works there. Service was great, time spent, my PRK has been amazing, and affordable. Highly recommend!

Wonderful experience all around! Everyone on the team was just great, and each step of the process was informative, fast, and easy. I actually ended up having PRK and bifocal eyes. The procedure itself was a cakewalk and recovery was fast and easy. The outcome was perfect. Couldn't say more great things about the team at Newman! read more

I had a great experience with Newman LASIK and I would highly recommend them. Very informative and answered all my questions. Great bedside manner and very friendly. read more

I'm currently still in the healing process from my PRK surgery, but I'm already so satisfied with the results. The entire experience at Newman LASIK has been amazing. The staff are all incredibly nice, friendly, and knowledgeable--they made me feel comfortable every step of the way. Dr. Neumann was fantastic. He talked me through the surgery the whole time, which really helped calm my nerves. He's super friendly and professional, and you can tell he truly cares about his patients. Even though I'm not fully healed yet, I can already see the difference, and I'm confident things will only get better from here. I 100% recommend coming to Newman LASIK if you're considering vision correction. You'll be in great hands! read more

Best thing I ever did for myself. Now 20 years later, at 72, I may need glasses once again.

My husband just had LASIK with Dr. Newman last week. Such an easy and effortless experience! Family eye care in Chico partners with him so my husband had his first appt in Chico and then the actual surgery in Sacramento. Your next day follow-up also has to be with Newman in Sacramento. A lot of driving but definitely worth it- for Newman's experience and affordability of the surgery! The only thing I would suggest is for them to have refreshments in the lobby while the drivers are waiting to drive home their patients! read more

Words cannot express how satisfied I am with my level of service, care, and experience at Newman Lasik Centers in Sacramento with Dr. Newman and his wonderful office staff. From my very first free consultation to see if I was a successful candidate, they made me feel very comfortable, relaxed, informed, and educated me throughout the entire process. Any questions I had or fears I had in the back of my head were addressed and answered. The tests completed to ensure I was a great candidate for Lasik were throughly detailed, and I did not feel pressured once. Prices were very reasonable and the price given on my day of consultation did not change during the time I waited to decided whether or not to go with the surgery. Eventually I called and decided to make my appointment to go through with the Lasik surgery. The entire Operating staff and Dr. Newman made me feel so comfortable and at ease the day of my surgery- I didn't even feel as anxious as I thought I was. They talked with me through each process during the Lasik procedure and kept telling me how great I was doing and it really helped keep me calm and relaxed. The next day I immediately had a follow up post op appointment to ensure all was well. I appreciated that even on a Saturday they made sure to see me post op (surgery was a Friday). Two weeks post op I have gone in for my check up and doing great, still receiving the great level of care I did since day one on the phone when speaking with them. I would recommend all to please consider a consultation with Dr. Newman and his wonderful staff if you are considering Lasik. They are the kindest, humble, educated, and dedicated staff to their patients. I am so grateful for them! Best decision of my life was getting Lasik done! On my Instagram @TulsiLynn I have included a mini video (vlog) of their facility and office if you would like to check it out! Thank you to all at Dr. Newman Lasik Center who helped play a role in this life changing process! read more

My surgery was completed at the end of April of 2022, so at the time of this writing it's been 3 months. My eyes coming into Dr. Newman's were far from perfect. I've been wearing glasses since the 2nd grade. I had heavy astigmatism in my right eye and nearsighted in my left eye. As a reference, in my contacts I wear toric and toric XR monthlies. The one toric XR was for my right eye. I was previously disqualified for reasons that made little sense to me the day prior, however, I came into Dr. Newman's knowing this and prepared for questions and alternatives. I advised the office staff of why I was DQ'd at the other place. They took a look, reviewed and performed the same diagnostic tests. They found no such issues with my eyes and stated that they were healthy with enough corneal tissue to proceed. This was great news but I was still left doubtful and why shouldn't I be? It seemed like a night & day diagnosis. In order to proceed, I had the option of dilating my eyes now or when I schedule the surgery. I decided on getting the dilation done that day just to clear out anything lingering on the day I planned for surgery. After dilation, they explained the procedure and I was also seen by their optometrist. She reviewed my chart, the tests, she looked at my eyes and basically told me that I'm cleared for surgery as well. However, I had the option to wait for Dr. Newman to give my final review and clear me for surgery for reassurance or I could go ahead and schedule that day. Opted to wait for Dr. Newman to give me the call back because I really wanted to be sure. Long story short, I was cleared for surgery! I opted for the newer tech LASIK which reduces the halos seen at night. I liked the fact that Dr. Newman's office and staff were so kind and were not pushy in this decision. I loved that there were options and they also asked Dr. Newman of my alternatives if I'm not given the ok for LASIK. I'm 3 months down the line and I was advised my vision will reach full healing by the 6 month line. If you're wondering why it's taking me so long to reach 20/20 perfect vision, it's because both of my eyes started off on 2 different healing paths. Patience is key. Additionally, coming to all of the follow up appointments and following the directions given for after surgery care is critical to the healing process. Some people see clearly a few days after surgery, others take some time. Those halos are there but they're not so obvious and blinding me at night as compared to the standard LASIK (which was also offered to me). I will provide an updated review of how my vision is after 6 months to 1 yr. So far though, my eyes are on the right path and I do see improvement. I highly recommend Dr. Newman and his staff. They are professional and never push you to make a decision. Dr. Newman has a soothing voice, so during the procedure he tells you what they're about to do before proceeding. Every single staff member I met at the office was also very kind, welcoming, and personable. I was recommended to Newman LASIK by multiple people (friends, acquaintances) including my sister who had hers done over 10 years ago. You can't go wrong with that! read more

Dr. Newman and his team made my LASIK surgery experience a comfortable one! They were friendly and professional. Highly recommend.

I had my eyes done over 20 years ago and they're still going strong. In fact, my daughter is making an appointment to go in to see Dr Newman. read more

Dr. Newman and his team are amazing and very kind!! The quality of service they provide to their patients is top tier and I can't say it enough about how friendly the entire staff is. I have been in glasses and contacts for years and I am extremely happy I made the consultation for lasik with Dr. Newman and his team. I am currently 1 week post-op after having my lasik procedure done and I can positively say this was the best decision I have made for myself. After doing extensive research about lasik and through a recommendation from a family friend, I am extremely thankful I found Dr. Newman's office in Sacramento. His whole team is very informative from start to finish and I could not be happier with my results. It was also nice to know that the procedure was affordable, which is RARE, however I am saying this through my own experience with visiting other doctors and doing my own research. The procedure itself was fast and painless and Dr. Newman was amazing in talking to me through the entire procedure. I felt very comfortable that I was in good hands! I can positively say that Dr. Newman and his team have exceeded my expectations!! If you are thinking about lasik, please consider Newman Lasik for a consultation!! Also, his website, https://www.newmanlasik.com, is very informative and can give you more of an insight about Dr. Newman and his experience. read more

- This review is past due. I finally had Lasik done & it was well worth every penny! I waited a couple of years until my vision was stable. I was getting tired of wearing glasses & contacts. - The staff was very friendly & prompt. They were very helpful & always available to answer any questions. - I was nervous to get Lasik to be honest. But Dr. Newman made me smile during the surgery. He's a funny & gifted surgeon. - For the price, you can't beat it! Thank you for restoring my vision & giving my life back! That's one major item I can check off my bucket list. read more

Almost my entire immediate family has gotten LASIK done with Dr. Newman and his team. They truly are the best. Scheduling a consultation was easy. The consultation was a breeze. I didn't see Dr. Newman until the day of the procedure, but all the information I got during the consultation made me feel comfortable continuing to do the surgery. Dr. Newman is super friendly and he talks you through the surgery (while doing it!) in a very sing-songy way which put me at ease. Recovery was easy too! You experience some stinging and a lot of tearing-up, but it only took about 24 hours for all those side effects to subside. I LOVE my new eyes and the freedom of not having to wear contact lenses or glasses. I only wish I had gotten it done sooner. I highly recommend getting LASIK done here! read more

Dr. Newman and his team are AWESOME! I did my procedure at the Sac location. They are all positive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Answered every question and walked you through the whole process from start to finish. I did my follow up appt today and recovering well. Everything was quick, painless, and very professional. read more

I had the PRK procedure done in November 2023 at the Sacramento location. I am extremely pleased with my results. All of the staff were extremely thorough with initial consultation and follow up care. I'm not even three months out from my surgery and my results have more than met my expectations. read more

I've been in contact in glasses where my whole life, I'm 25 and finally decided to look into getting Lasix. About 15 years ago my mom went to Newman Lasik Center, she is still on the receiving end of the benefits of Lasix. I was pretty nervous going into my procedure but their staff was above and beyond to making me feel comfortable. Showing me dog pictures and talking about what makes me happy right before the procedure to calm my nerves. It was a little things that made me so comfortable. The procedure did not hurt at all, and recovery was fairly easy. Everyone in that office is easy to talk to smiling and answered the million questions I had. I will recommend this establishment till my last day! On top of all stated, they have the most competitive pricing as well. I called around to five different Lasik centers in the Sacramento area and all were over $1000 more expensive and had sassy receptionist on the phone. Again, if you're thinking about Lasix, I would recommend beginning that process and going with Newman Lasik Center read more

Had an appointment and they were on time and very honest about their procedures, and took care in explaining why they felt it wasn't for me!

Aftercare Dr. was not helpful after my wife's PRK treatment. All the care in the world before the sale, but after they have your money, they don't care about you at all- you're just a number to them. Aftercare Dr. told my wife that everyone has dry eyes, then said everyone's been complaining about dry eyes for the last 2-years because of this sugery, then said her dry eyes was because of environmental reasons. My wife can now see without glasses, but her eyes are dry and painful now after the surgery and the Dr. at this clinic doesn't care about anyone after they have your money. Good luck if you go here. read more

I got lasik here about twenty years ago. I just had my eyes checked and left eye is still 20/20 and right eye slightly weaker. The optometrist said whoever did my eye surgery did an amazing job and I have barely any scar tissue. Most of my friends who got lasik back when I did ended up with glasses again a decade ago. Definitely won't make a mistake going to Dr. Newman. read more

The surgery was quick. The anticipation leading up to the surgery was probably the worst thing about the whole procedure. Dr. Newman and his team are very considerate, and patient. Would definitely recommend this Lasik Center to anyone who asks. read more

I had surgery on both my eyes in 2016. Here I am in 2024 still with 20/20 vision. I have to say my experience at this office was so amazing. The staff are super helpful and explain everything in a way so that you can understand what's going on. The doctor explains what is happening during the procedure. The procedure itself is so quick. When I went in I wore coke bottle glasses...the next day, I could see everything. It was weird getting used to not having to put glasses on as soon as I woke up in the morning. This doctor is excellent at what he does! If you're thinking about getting this surgery and you're on the fence, go for it! The only unpleasant part is for a couple hours after surgery. It just feels like you have something in your eye. I kept frozen peas on them! You will happy you did it! It saved me so much money in the long run. Between glasses and contacts. Thank you again Dr! Although it's been so long you probably don't remember me lol. read more

Well it has been close to two years since I had my Lasik surgery done by Dr Newman. So far so good. My vision... daytime, nighttime, computer reading... are great. I did a lot of research about the procedures and went to two other local Lasik centers for consultations. They all advised me that due to my prescription, they all recommended monovision lasik. In that they corrected one eye for distance and the other for near sightedness. That enabled me to go eyeglass free. The consultations are not done by Dr Newman. Actually you don't meet the dude until the very time of your surgery. The initial consult is done by his staff. The eye exam is done by an optometrist. She provided me contact lens to try out monovision. My tip to you is to be honest when doing your eye exam. I mean when you are looking at those darn eye charts, be honest and tell them what you can or can't see. Don't exaggerate because that will be the info to set your surgery prescription. Remember it's a surgery, the doctor can't put back the tissue he lasered off. A staff person will work with you on the financing. Dr Newman's pricing was a few hundred dollars cheaper. But I chose them over the others not by the price but by Dr Newman's ratings and my comfort level with the knowledge and professionalism of the staff. The surgery itself was less than 15 minutes, if that. The doctor had a great bedside manner. Positive enthusiastic attitude. Steady hands. He does talk to you before the surgery. I had no pain or vision issues after the surgery. I did follow the two prescription eye drop schedule to a T. Make sure you get your prescriptions before or quickly after the surgery. Don't confuse your prescriptions or skip on the schedule. My surgery was on a Thursday and I was back to staring at a computer and driving myself home at night on the following Monday. I suggest before you get back into solo night time driving after surgery, take a mini drive around the block in your neighborhood. I did and was fortunate not to have that issue. If you see significant halos or glares, go back to doctors office to discuss. I was told in the consultation that halos may occur and may diminish over time. The follow up exams are conducted by his staff optometrist. The staff did not remind me of the follow ups. No email, text or voicemail. But They do remind the heck out of you of the surgery date though. read more

I got LASIK from Dr. Newman years ago. Everyone was very nice, but my vision started reverting soon after surgery, when I went back for check ups, the medical assistant assured me it was just dry eyes. I believed her... until it got bad enough that I could not read road signs again. I went to my local optometrist and have been in glasses/contacts since, Newman only insures his work for a year. There are plenty of other highly rated Doctors who offer lifetime fixes. read more

Great sweet staff, very good prices, everything seems on the up and up, but results have been incredibly disappointing. Will give it another 3 weeks or so and if not hopefull they might redo. Colors are A LITTLE brighter, vision is A LITTLE better than before, but honestly nothing more than 5-10% better...At this point, I could have just kept wearing glasses and been better off. I literally wake up sad and disappointed every day...I assume I'm in the minority, where the treatment for whatever reason doesn't take...I don't blame Newman, but I can't give a good score on disheartening results. read more

The entire process was a great experience. I was a little nervous about the surgery, as expected, but when I made the appointment over the phone, the person I spoke with was patient and informative about the procedure. Once I came in for the consult, the entire staff was friendly and resourceful. I never once felt pressured to go a route that I didn't want to. They were as concerned with me being comfortable as I was and it made me feel safe. Once it was time for the actual procedure (I did the custom PRK), Dr. Newman walked me through everything as I was under the light. There was never a moment that I freaked out because he literally explains everything as it happens. Also, they give up some numbing drops so you don't feel anything when it happens. The overall surgery took maybe two minutes per eye. I'll be honest, the first day was a little tough on me and I was extremely sensitive to light but the pain went away the next day. It's been two weeks since my surgery and I can 100% say I am satisfied with my decision to do lasik. Especially for the price - Dr. Newman's prices are unmatched when compared to other doctors in the area. Which is unheard of seeing as he is one of, if not, the top lasik doctors in Sacramento. If you're on the edge of doing lasik, I would absolutely recommend this center! read more

I visited Newman lasik in hopes of having corrective surgery. I was treated with the utmost respect, and kindness. I was fitted with contact lenses that allowed me to test how I would see after the surgery. Unfortunately, I am not a good candidate for the the surgery. However, I appreciated the thourough exam, and education on the surgery. The Doctor and her assistant explained everything clearly. They explained why I may be a candidate in the future. I will definitely go back to them in the future after my vision changes. (Aging sucks!) Thank you newman lasik for taking the time to give me a free consultation (Did I mention the consultation was free?) If you have been considering lasik I recommend you take a chance and make an appointment. read more

I had custom wavefront Lasik performed by Dr. Newman almost 6 years ago, and I still have 20/20 vision in one eye and 20/15 in the other, so my distance vision is fantastic! And my ophthalmologist said everything looks good with my flaps at my latest visit. Overall, it was a good experience, and I'd get Lasik again, but I wish I was more prepared for the slow healing process and complications. I, unfortunately, ended up having uncommon extreme light sensitivity for months, which eventually went away, but it was a hassle because I couldn't go outside without sunglasses for months. I also dealt with severe dry eyes and had to take prescription dry eye drops for over a year, along with rewetting drops. I still use Systane daily, but my dry eyes aren't nearly as bad as they were the first year. Now, there are a few of permanent downsides to Lasik. First and foremost, your nearsighted focal point changes (which they tell you), meaning you won't be able to see things super close up as you were before Lasik. This caused me to have to start using reading glasses a couple of years sooner than I wanted, but reading glasses are inevitable. Second, you may get night halos, even if you get custom Lasik. I see night halos when I drive at night, which I've gotten used to, but initially, they were a hassle, and I wasn't comfortable driving at night. Third, your eyes may become a lot more sensitive. My eyes get irritated and red a lot easier ever since I got Lasik, even 6 years later. Fourth, you may have permanent dry eyes to some extent and may end up spending a lot of money on rewetting drops. I still have dry eyes, they're not that bad, but I do spend about $100/year on Systane drops. All-in-all, Lasik was life-changing for me, but not without its issues. Regardless, I'd get it again because the benefits of being able to see long distance with perfect vision greatly outweigh the issues I've faced with it. read more

Dr Newman was fantastic! Not only was the operation easy but Dr Newman had me laughing the entire operation. I recommend him to everyone that I know seeking lasik. read more

Dr. Newman is a phenomenal Doctor! I am so happy and grateful I found this Doctor. I had very bad astigmatism in both eyes. Even with glasses, I was only seeing 20/60. Contacts wasn't an option for me as they were so irritating on my eyes. I thought about having this surgery for the past 12 yrs, i was very nervous. Finally I went for it. I did my research and made a consultation with Dr. Newman. He was so kind, knowledgeable and trustworthy. Before my surgery I had always had dry eyes most of my adult life. I told Dr. Newman about this. He listened and thoroughly examined my eyes. He saw that my eyes were in fact dry. He told me exactly what drops to get, and told me to use drops regularly and see how I feel in about one month. I appreciated the fact that he did not try to rush me in to having this surgery. He genuinely wanted to get my eyes healthy before jumping in to the surgery. So I would have the best possible outcome. It's the little gestures like that I take notice to. After one month the drops he recommended made a significant difference in my dry eyes! I made the appointment for surgery. I was very nervous as to be expected. Everyone in the office was welcoming and calming. Surgery was quick and painless. I work on a computer 8 to 10 hours a day, 5 to 6 days a week, so taking about one week off after surgery was a good idea. I would highly recommend it. You may not need it, but I am glad I did. My eyes were very dry and irritated for the first couple weeks following the surgery. Dr. Newman informed me before hand my eyes would be dry and feel irritated, so I was prepared. I used the drops and eye ointment Dr. Newman prescribed and recommended. Now it has been only 3 months post op. I am seeing 20/25 which is amazing! My eyes feel better with each day. I truly trust and recommended Dr. Newman. I quite honestly like and admire Dr. Newman not only as a Doctor but as a real person. He stays with you through the entire process. He is always available answer any questions or concerns you may have.He genuinely has a good heart. And cares about the health of his patients. read more

I got Lasik surgery done by Doctor Newman and his team back in October of 2019. Now that it has been 9 months I wanted to give my review. Dr.Newman and his team was fantastic throughout the entire process. From beginning to end, with pre-exams to the surgery itself to then short quick follow ups. I have worn glasses with a high prescription for over 23 years, and this is best magic I could have ever done. The staff explained all testing measures and needs, and all tests were gone over thoroughly especially in my case since my eyes were shaped a little different. They made me feel very comfortable in every step of the way. I had a saying my eyes I wouldn't go cheap on and I am glad I went with a professional group at Newman Lasik, it is well worth the money! My vision is better the 20/20 and there is some glare at night from driving lights but I had that with glasses anyways! If you are considering Lasik eye surgery, this is the place to do it at !!! read more

I can seee!!! Dr.Newman is so kind and soothing. He explains everything that's happening during the procedure. And the staff is very helpful and informative. I had a -3.75 prescription and lived in glasses all my life. Not anymore! On my one day follow up I was a 20/15 vision! I naturally have very dry eyes, so I paid extra for the tear duct plugs. It was quick and painless, and really helps keep my eye moist! read more
