Dr. Levin explained my problem and helped me to understand the issues by drawing pictures. Patients really need pictures of healthy to unhealthy joints when dealing with knees and shoulders. He furthered his concern by ordering additional tests.

He was rather brusque and seemed to assume that he would do the surgery if I decided to have it done. Maybe it's just me...

I felt treated with condescension when asking questions about my surgery. He made me feel dumb for asking simple questions and was very quick to shut me down. Dr. Levin needs to work on his communication with his patients and treating them with respect.
April 12, 2025
This doctor is shown on your website as friendly and smiling in a picture with a patient but his bedside manner is not good. He was cold, dismissive and borderline rude.
