Wouldn't Change a Thing...simply amazing!
I throughly enjoyed this journey with Dr. Newkirk. He is a very patient and knowledgeable Dr. I had visited another Doctor in my hometown and I was very unhappy with the medicrcisy of that experience. I came home and continued my research. I reached out to a few PS and got a phone call back from Dr. Newkirk's office. The receptionist was really polite and answered all of my questions. It was like talking to an old friend. They do a great job of spacing out appointments. My time

Face and Neck Lift - Columbia, SC
Dr. Newkirk did a wonderful surgery on my face. I am 76 and he smoothed out my face and neck very nicely, I am very pleased. He is also very concerned about his patients. Dr. Newkirk gives his phone number out to his surgical patients for after hour calls. He answered all my questions, recovery was as he explained. I highly recommend him.

Looked OLD After Caring for Husband with Cancer and Aging Parents. Columbia, SC
I aged overnight after the death of my parents in 2014. I had also lost my husband earlier to cancer and at 61 my face was dragging down to my chest. I had always been told I looked young for my age but now the bags under my eyes, heavy jowls and turkey neck made me look and feel tired. I went to Dr. Newkirk at Columbia Plastic Surgery and had a lower face/chin lift and an upper/lower eye lift as well as juvederm in my lips and to correct the lines at the corners of my mouth. I

Wanted to Stay Young Looking! Facelift at 48 Years Old. - Columbia, SC
Dr. Newkirk performed a facelift on my face that was just beginning to show age (according to me!) and made me look 10 years younger INSTANTLY ! The changes were not detected by friends - everyone just asked what face products I was using. Its been 5 years and they still ask! Dr. Newkirk was very professional and caring before, during and after the surgery! I cannot imagine going to anyone else in Columbia!
Hi, I'm new here and I'm going into surgery next tuesday! I'm so nervous and excited at the same time. I've never had surgery b4 and I've never been put to sleep b4! So of course my mind is racing! I will post pics and update best I can. Any advice is welcomed. I'm very scared of the things that could go wrong, but keeping a positive outlook! I pray to that I make it back home to see my babies! I know that sounds silly, but I'm such an anxious person! Updated on 30 Jul 2014: I'm

43, Had Always Wanted to Get Rid of Lower "Apron" - Columbia, SC
Words can not express how happy with the results, my recovery was also unbelievable, really no pain, a little discomfort but very manageable, was able to start working out within 3-4 weeks. Was able to ask all my questions and feel as if I was satisfied with the answers. When and if I need anything down the road I will go back to Dr Newkirk.

Mole Removal Through Insurance - Columbia, SC
I had a mole on my back I believed to be cancerous. Dr. Newkirk and his staff got me scheduled for the procedure fast. The procedure itself was quick and painless. The pathology report came back negative. Either way it was well worth the trip. I would recommend visiting Dr. Newkirk for cosmetic and insurance procedures.

26 Yo, Lost What Little Boobs I Had After Baby - Columbia, SC
When meeting dr newkirk my honest first opinion was not the best however after speaking with him and going through with the surgery I would not have chosen another doctor. I am so happy with my results. And where dr newkirk's personality lack his staff more than makes up for it. You do not have to worry about long waits or alot of people in the waiting room. They schedule people appropriately so you don't feel awkward. They have plenty of patience when trying to decide what is
Breast Reduction Gone Wrong
2008 I had a breast reduction by him and it went horribly wrong. I had to have a full reconstruction done a year later by a different doctor now 9 years later will be having a mastopexy done. I wish this app was around then and could have made a better decision for dr to go to.
Unskilled
This dr. is unskilled!! $4700 for Liposuction and the results we awful! Three months after The surgery my waist was the same size prior to the surgery. When I confronted him regarding the results he became very defensive and ask me to leave his office. No bedside manner's as well! Don't waste you time and money. I should have read the reviews prior to seeing him.
