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.

Dr. Levensen is always kind, sensitive, respectful, and was able to prescribe medications that have changed my life. Many thanks for his commitment and expertise.

My adult daughter was on numerous psychotropic medications and not improving. She was referred to Dr. Levenson, but he said it would take too much time to review her records and see her. He then blatantly lied about what happened. He is arrogant and untrustworthy. I would not recommend anyone to him.

Dr. Levenson is the best doctor I have ever dealt with in any specialty. His knowledge of psychiatry is amazing and his clinical presence both comforting and kind.
