Dr. Alfred Levy, MD

He was our “on call” doctor during Memorial Day weekend and I found him be so caring, empathetic and responsive to my husband’s needs. Doctors like Dr. Levy don’t grow on trees. He truly has a heart of gold and you can tell he is in the medical field because he cares about the patients.

I read a review on Dr Levy from 2021. The last time I saw him was 1983. He was in family practice and had treated my 3 year old for a cracked bone in his leg and my 42 year old husband generally. The comments from the reviewer today reflect my views from so long ago. He is a listener. He cares about his patients. He took time with me as a 31 year old widow trying to understand the causes of my husband’s death. So wonderful to know the contributions he is making to patients today.

Dr. Levy is patient. He has much to say, yet listens intently and wholeheartedly. He treated my father through scary times yet never abandoned my father's independence for expediency. He listened for and to my dad's voice, when it seemed like he might not say anything after Dr. Levy asked him a question about the direction of his care. When my father finally spoke, eyes still closed yet surprisingly tuned in, Dr Levy got an answer to what my dad would want. Another doctor would have not had the wisdom nor concern to engage the patient as Dr Levy did. He is a mench because of training, his own life experience and the innate empathy and dedication that grows strongly within him. I recommend him highly for palliative care. Other professionals in palliative care seemed more like crows waiting. Not to be harsh, but as a confused and stressed caregiver/ daughter, the feelings are tender and raw. Dr. Levy was/is/will be a blessing

Dr Levy is the best doctor I've ever had! He really listens when you tell him what's wrong. He explains your diagnosis and answers all your questions in easy to understand language. He doesn't feel the need to use obscure medical terms that most people wouldn't understand.

Even taking my call as the “On Call” Doctor, he was professional, empathetic, knowledgeable, acted medically appropriately after his intake of information with me, was decisive, insightful, thorough and he explained things such that I understood. That’s hard to find these days in Medical Doctors, at least for me. Highly recommended.
