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.

Does not seem to care about his patients.
Saw the Dr. on initial visit and he seemed focused on just my TMJ and not the rest of the problem with my ear. On my second visit he prescribed prednisone and said he would order an MRI that day which was a Tuesday . I heard nothing from office so I called a week later and talked to Kendall the nurse who takes care of insurance. She said she hadn’t got around to since it wasn’t a trauma to my ear. She got very defensive with me because I explained to her that I was in a lot of pain and that when I was there the week before I was told that they were going to get it ordered right away. She proceeded to tell me hold on let me get the Dr. on he phone. Dr. Levinger got on the line and proceeded to tell me that if I was not happy with the way the office was run I could go find another Dr.. He told me this twice. To say I was shocked would be an understatement and he was not interested in how I was doing. I would not recommend him to anyone.

Dr Levinger was attentive and thorough with my care. He had to conduct a nasal scope and swab and was gentle. He was thorough in explaining my condition and how to proceed. Look forward to surgery with him.

It is always stressful to find out that your child needs surgery, but I couldn’t have asked for a more caring and competent physician than what I found in Dr. Joshua Levinger. His exceptional medical skill and professional expertise was exceeded by the concern he showed for both my daughter and myself before and after surgery. He excels at his work in every way possible from yearly exams to post-op. Dr. Levinger’s team and staff at Weill Cornell do everything possible to make the stay comfortable and painless. I am extremely grateful for everyone’s professionalism and their personal kindness. It was especially apparent with the extra steps and precautions taken to make sure that the facility was clean and we felt safe during this pandemic.
