I booked an appointment for my dad with Dr. Levine because he had great reviews on ZocDoc. My dad had a great experience, and was convinced that he should make this his regular doctor. But it has been months since his visit where the doctor made him do several tests, and he has yet to receive the results or any follow up whatsoever from Dr. Levine's office despite numerous phone calls and voice messages. Disappointing to say the least..
Dr. Levine May be the nicest doctor I've met. He spent a long time with me, wanting to get to know the "whole person" not just treat the symptom. He spent well over the time most doctors do. Very calm, reassuring and funny. I feel so lucky to have found him and am rest assured I am in good hands with Dr. Levine!

More about Dr. Michael I. Levine, MD

My practice is based on the belief my patients' needs are of the utmost importance. I am committed to meeting those needs. Taking the time to listen and getting to know you as a patient with medical concerns and also as the unique individual you are is my priority and the key to being the best physician I can be. As much as possible I want you to relax, have a good time, and maybe even a laugh or two during your visit. Whether you need a one time consultation or ongoing medical care I am here to help. Please be aware at present the office does not offer vaccinations, or blood and urine testing. After a comprehensive history and physical exam, I will recommend and order the lab tests both you and I agree are necessary for maintaining optimal health, or diagnosing a new medical condition or complaint. My staff and I will do all we can to assist in finding an outside lab for you such as Quest Diagnostics that is conveniently located near your place of work or where you live. We will also help you in getting the vaccinations you may need and finding the right specialists, when indicated, so you receive the best care possible.

Great! Prompt and thorough. Great bedside manner.
Bizarre questioning like - do you drink? maybe dont drink as much, etc. Equipment from the 70s. Seemed confused as to how to be a doctor.
I booked an appointment for my dad with Dr. Levine because he had great reviews on ZocDoc. My dad had a great experience, and was convinced that he should make this his regular doctor. But it has been months since his visit where the doctor made him do several tests, and he has yet to receive the results or any follow up whatsoever from Dr. Levine's office despite numerous phone calls and voice messages. Disappointing to say the least..
Like it says on his business card, "he's a good man, and thorough." He is extremely friendly and I never feel rushed through my visits with him like I have with other doctors. He is also very easy to get ahold of by phone or email.
Verified patient
Dr. Levine is very thorough and reassuring. He is easy to talk to and I get the feeling that he truly cares for his patients. My only complaint is the waiting room time. I waited about 45 minutes on my first visit and over an hour on my second. Worth the wait though.
Good overall, but quite a significant wait—delayed about 45 minutes beyond my appointment time (made worse by the fact that I had a headache). Also, be warned that this is a small office and they don't do blood work, so that does add some degree of hassle to getting a physical, but luckily there's a Quest Diagnostics within a few blocks from where I live... Dr. Levine seems nice though!
Dr. Levine is great! I highly recommend him!!
He is very thorough and takes lots of notes.
Dr. Levine May be the nicest doctor I've met. He spent a long time with me, wanting to get to know the "whole person" not just treat the symptom. He spent well over the time most doctors do. Very calm, reassuring and funny. I feel so lucky to have found him and am rest assured I am in good hands with Dr. Levine!
Verified patient
The visit went very well. he listened and took his time. It was almost a Dr. Oz experience. Now I see why he has so many positive reviews.
Verified patient
Dr. Mike is a cool cucumber, very smart; without the baggage of arrogance. He is thoughtful, compassionate and kind of a funny guy too. Dr. Levine is one of the best doctors I've had the privilege to meet and be under care of with one exception. My brother is a doctor too he just lives far away, so in my brother's absence I have Dr. Michael Levine. Lucky me! Oy, I could do worse?
Verified patient
Very genial, relaxed manner.
Was very happy with my first visit. Dr. Levine made it very personal which is exactly what I look for in a primary care doctor. Highly recommend.
I thought his manner was a bit creepy, strange man. He kept me waiting 45 mins then said hi and walked out again, in, out, kept saying ill be with you in a few mins. Oh and I was the only patient in the small office, I won't go back
He's a nice guy and seemed to be thorough.
Dr. Levine is a Godsend. Great listener, kind, compassionate and has a great sense of humor. Anyone reading this should consider themselves fortunate to get an appt. with him.
Verified patient
Good and thorough doctor
Went for a physical/new doctor visit and spent over an hour chatting about my history with Dr. Levine. I have never experienced that kind of care and, frankly, didn't know it even existed. I highly recommend Dr. Levine!
I've seen Dr. Levine a few times now and will continue to visit his office whenever the need arises. He is funny, easy going, and allows you to communicate your needs and concerns in a very relaxed environment.
Just awesome! They don't make doctors like this anymore. Dr. Levine spent much time and gave me a very thourough examination. He is quite knoweledgeable and I'm quite fortunate to have him as my internist. I highly recommend.
Verified patient
Dr. Levine is one of the most thorough physicians I have ever encountered. There is no rushing through the appointment even if it takes an hour to get through everything. The office visit is always a pleasant experience.
Verified patient
I scheduled an appt. through Zoc Doc and the doctor sent me an email that I should please re-schedule the appt. via an email...
he's great!
