Patient Reviews
Mar 08, 2017
Dr. New saved my husband's life. He had ingested a glass fragment last year which lacerated his esophagus and then migrated to the OUTSIDE, continuing to cut. He believed he had choked on a dry corner of toast and damaged his larynx. Our family physician, seeing no blood, accepted David's explanation, prescribed rest. He began to fail, rapidly and I took him. Dr. New had the presence of mind to order a dye test when others showed nothing. But for him, my husband would simply have died.
