    At the end of the day, we all want to feel that we made a difference. I always felt that medicine was that pathway for me. Medicine certainly gives us the chance to celebrate recovery and successes, while at the same time being forced to recognize our limitations. Medicine is a humbling occupation. What I want my patients to know about me:I love to laugh. Make me smile! I enjoy a challenge.What I do when I'm not seeing patients:I love activity. Outdoors is the best, especially triathlons, long-distance biking and swimming. I have had the privilege to bike the Pacific Coast Highway, Going to the Sun Highway, the Ride the Rockies event across Colorado, as well as local events such as the Philly Tri. Locally I manufacture exquisite sawdust on weekends in my attempts at woodworking. (The Amish have nothing to worry about!) Finally I participate with many of our WellSpan Ephrata providers to upgrade medical care at a Haitian hospital on the north side of the island, upgrading their lab and education network.

    I was initially drawn to medicine because it was an opportunity to use my love of science to do something that helped people in an immediate and tangible way. After 25 years in practice, I continue to find joy and fulfillment in medicine because of the opportunity to connect and communicate with other people in a meaningful way.What I want my patients to know about me:I think my strength in medicine is communication. I believe and act on the old saying that 80% of diagnosis is in listening to the patient's story. I also value finding ways to communicate complex and technical information in a way that is understandable and useful to the individual patient.What I do when I'm not seeing patients:My interests are wide and diverse. They include reading, hiking, woodworking, gardening, traveling and more. My faith and church are central to my life. Also of great value to me is time spent with our adult children, our parents and the rest of our family. Dr. Newswanger is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Emphysema.

    Last Updated: 02/22/2026

    When should I see an Emphysema doctor near Ephrata, PA?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing an Emphysema doctor near Ephrata, PA?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Emphysema doctors near Ephrata, PA?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Emphysema doctors near Ephrata, PA?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with an Emphysema doctor near Ephrata, PA?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Emphysema doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Emphysema doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

    How can I prepare for my appointment with an Emphysema doctor near Ephrata, PA?

    Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

    • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
    • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
    • Family history of disease 
    • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
    • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
    • List of questions and concerns 
    • Your insurance card 

    You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

    What questions should I ask my Emphysema doctor?

    Here are some sample questions: 

    • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
    • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
    • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
    • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
    • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

    How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Emphysema doctor may know about?

    MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

    MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

    Can I filter my search to show male or female Emphysema doctors near Ephrata, PA?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Emphysema doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

    Can I filter my search to find an Emphysema doctor that offers video calls?

    Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Emphysema doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
