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.

Highly Recommended
I highly recommend Dr. Levitz ! From the moment I walked into the office, I felt truly cared for. He is knowledgeable and professional, but also incredibly compassionate. What really stood out to me was how he took the time to listen—not just to symptoms, but to my concerns and preferences.Rather than jumping to a single answer, Dr. Levitz explained all of my options clearly and walked me through the pros and cons of each. I never felt rushed. It felt like a real partnership in my care, and that’s rare to find.If you’re looking for a doctor who listens, respects your input, and offers thoughtful, personalized solutions, Dr. Levitz is an excellent choice.

I saw Dr. Levitz about a cyst on my hand. He was very pleasant to meet and talk to and explained my options clearly, giving me the choice as opposed to simply saying, “This is what you should do.” My husband has had very negative experiences with 2 different surgeons about much more serious problems - if only they had been more like Dr. Levitz! Although my concern was minor, I do not think you can go wrong with him.

I saw Dr. Levitz on referral of a number of recs from Nextdoor.com. He was kind, explained everything, thorough and no regrets going to him. He checked my hands out, gave me a splint. He is very honest instead of so many that won't give up a patient. He told me to go back to Dr. Erin Arnold because she is the one that could help with with my pain. He would not give me a pain shot because he felt you don't put that stuff in your body unless necessary.

Two years ago I had a severe hand injury severing a digital nerve. This was especially problematic given I’m a health care provider that uses his hands. Dr Levitz was incredibly accurate in his assessment and received an incredible result which is FULLY functional. Highest recommendation. He is a gifted, caring surgeon.

I am so thankful to have found Dr. Levitz, a very competent, thoughtful and kind physician. He listens well, explains well and gives choices as well as his recommendation. He gives excellent shots (in my hand) that you hardly notice. I have scheduled my Carpo Tunnel surgery with him in May. I have full confidence in him.

Dr. Levitz saw me when I fractured my wrist in a fall. He was outstanding in his care, supportive, efficient, and most important totally professional and an excellent doctor who was an amazing mix of professional and personal support. And the very best recommendation is that my wrist healed very well and in a week less time than originally expected. He is an excellent physician and a good person.

Dr Levitz displayed all that is good in a surgeon. Extreme attention to detail and compassion that many folks believe no longer exists in the industry. If it were not for Dr. Levitz surgery on my elbow over this past winter, I'd still be waking up with chronic pain & misery. Two thumbs up for this compassionate professional.
