Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Old School
Nice person but very old school in how he practices. He still takes patient notes by hand, which is a bit archaic. He is always behind schedule resulting in long wait times. What really bothers me is that he will respond to text messages and emails on his phone while I am meeting with him! This is inappropriate!! His office assistant is pretty rough in her demeanor. I will now look for another Neurologist.

Completely Dissmissive
We went to see Dr. Levin for lingering cognitive issues from a concussion after multiple therapies. Dr. Levin decided in 30 minutes my husband may or may not be having an emotional response from a concussion He pointed and did not allow me to speak. He literally offered no help. It was so discouraging for my husband. I am most disappointed. WE came foe help and got done. What a disheartening experience. Dr. Levin does not appear to be in practice to listen and help patients.

Referred for post concussion syndrome and Dr Levin said there was multiple treatments we could try to help with sleep and headache issues. After 5 visits and a single medication he literally gave up... what happened to the multiple options? He also didnt seem to listen as his notes were full of errors and when corrected he never updated them so how could he possibly treat with bad notes? His staff was also absent minded often forgetting people were in the waiting room, not sending faxes etc

Spent months getting eval'd for post concussion. Apparently a post concussion eval does not include any visits w/a neurologist. Office staff said it's up to the patient to know & request MD appointment. Shocked to hear this & made an appointment - w/7 week wait, after formal dx. Referred to a Boston hospital for more testing. Wanted to talk about reasons for referral w/Dr. Levin. One week before appt. he had a secretary call to say he won't see me for sched appt. ARROGANT. GO ELSEWHERE.

He's all business and focused on the task at hand. Cold bedside manner but science based so I'm cool with it. Very thorough!

Dr. Levin and his staff are fantastic. I was referred to Dr. Levin after being seen in the ER. I called the office and they were very kind and accommodating. I called on a Wednesday for an appointment and was seen that Friday. Dr. Levin had all my information and went over every detail with me. I was provided follow-up information and my next appointment being for the exact week out he recommended. Dr. Levin is extremely intelligent and it reflects in the care he provides. Highly recommend.

No chance what so ever. The rule of thumb was waiting an hour or more. The popular excuse was "there was an emergency." I was never allowed to talk about my condition. I simply had to answer his questions which demanded a yes or no answer. Symptoms are not black or white. They can be grey as well. If I could have changed to a different neurologist I would have.

Terrible Doctor. I was suffering from severe TBI caused by multiple concussions. I had every symptom consistent with that condition and was in severe need of help. Dr. Levin started by telling me to go find a psychiatrist in Texas. He proceeded to tell me that my problems were psychological and from alcohol and not TBI. Left me without hope.Fortunately, I was able to find Cerebrum Health Centers in Irving, Texas where my condition was properly diagnosed and treated. Got my life back at Cerebrum.

My Dad was first on his list. 2 hours, Yes 2 hours later he was still at the nurses station chatting with staff. When confronted he said he had had an emergency that delayed him. That, and the snow. HAHA. It was snowing. No accumulation however. Roads clear for the hour it was snowing. What a dope.

An idiot. I was 15 minutes early for my appointment. He walked in the door 5 minutes past the appointment time, said good morning and proceeded into the office and spent 15 minutes chatting about personal drivel with his office lady. Then 5 minutes later he walks into the waiting room (now 20 minutes past my appt.) and tells me that he is going to run over to the hospital to see another patient and he hopes to be back in about thirty minutes and will visit with me then. Fat chance, I left.
