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 Recommend - Great Doctor!
Dr.Levine took excellent care of me when I broke my ankle in a boating accident. His office was very clean and his staff fit me in quickly. I would highly recommend Dr.Levine!

The worse experience in my life. I got injured at work last year. WC did not accept my case until 9 months later. I am still not able to work so I went to see Dr Sidney Levine bec he had good reviews. He was rude since the beginning. Having an accent, he asked me where I was originally from. He was upset that I hadn’t work for almost a year. I was treated like a criminal. The WC Dr. assigned to me for evaluation treated me nicer than him. He sent me to take lots of X-rays in his own office. I was there for 2 hours. I thought we would meet again to discuss the X-rays but he was gone. The Assistant said sometimes he doesn’t come back. I called him later, the secretary lied for him & said he wasn’t there, but then he started talking raisin his voice & hanged up on me. When I was in his office I overheard him telling his Assistant to write more reviews bec his last patient found him on the internet. I should’ve walked out at that moment.

Absolutely the worst experience ever. Save yourself the trouble and do not go. I'm leaving the office after waiting for an hour. Horrible office in terms of wait times and appointments.

Dr. Levine is an excellent physician. He has wonderful bedside manners and truly cares. Dr. Levine listens to my concerns and always gets them addressed. I recently had surgery and he made me feel at ease.

The doctor is good and it may seem like it is easy to make appointments but expect to wait an hour in the lobby then another waiting for the doctor. What is the point of making appointments then? Though the doctor is pretty good, this office over books appointments.
