I. M. Levy, MD

I have literally called and left 2 messages today for a psychiatric emergency with his patient who is my mother. Not to mention my brother not getting any returned calls for approximately 3 weeks. My entire family will be filing complaints and having this go as high up the chain as possible. This is neglect of his patients care which he is responsible for. This will not continue as far as we can help it for my mother and other patients experience the same neglect

I will never go to this Doc. Levy again. He is rude arrogant, does not have any bedside manners at all. He does not take the time to speak with you. He, rushes you out of his office and doesn't want to hear what you have to say. How, is he going to tell me that he knows the extent of my pain and what I go thru day in and day out because of my knee. How the heck is he going try to compare my knee to his. I would like for him to go do my job for one day and see how long he last out in the streets. The worst doctor I have ever seen. He is truly not professional at all.

Dr. Levy may have been in the business for years but his attitude is downright cocky. His staff is young and stupid and it appears that they are more into talking about parties than doing their job. Dr. Levy treated me like I was in an assembly line. Get in and get out and without even doing a thorough examination, a bogus diagnosis was made. My insurance was also charge incorrectly.

highly instrumental in saving my knee what can i say Dr levy turned a nightmare into a pleasant dream

Dr. Levy may have 33 years of experience, but he has very little to show for it in his lack of ability to connect with a patient, or conduct himself in a professional manner. Dr. Levy reclined in a lounging position throughout a superficial visit, and behaved in such a way as though I was wasting his time, and don't I have something better to come up with than my presenting problem. He has a very pompous and arrogant manner, and despite a recommendation from another (excellent) doctor on his floor I would never have seen him, nr would I return in the furure!!

very professional and talented a great surgeon would highly recommend this doctor

I'll say this immediately: Dr. Levy may very well be an excellent doctor. He has extensive experience in his field and if you speak to anyone in the medical profession that is familiar with him you will discover that he has a very solid reputation. He was even recommended to me by two close friends.However, his bedside manner and overall demeanor leave much to be desired. As soon as he came into the room I immediately understood that he was just trying to get me out of there as soon as possible. He was not at all interested in anything I had to say about my injury or my injury history. The entire visit must have taken less than 3 seconds. I did not feel like I was in a hospital with a professional MD, I felt like I was on a conveyor belt being handled by a factory worker. His office staff is extremely rude and unprofessional. I had to chase them around for weeks after my initial appointment due to various complications with paperwork. In the course of these conversations I… was frequently spoken to in a disrespectful manner and blatantly lied to by various members of his office staff. I don't know the amount of oversight Dr. Levy has regarding these staffers but, to put it simply, these are not people that I enjoyed dealing with. It's a shame. After getting fed up of trying to coax Levy and his staff into doing their jobs, I went and saw another doctor in the area and was absolutely relieved to be treated like a human being. Dr. Levy is a very competent man. However, this is New York City. There is no shortage of doctors that bring both competency and a genuine desire to take care of their patients. I did not in the least bit feel that Dr. Levy saw me as anything more than a name to be crossed off a checklist.
