I love Dr. Levenson. He is an excellent cardiologist but I also think of him as a friend that I can talk to about almost anything comfortably

Dr. Levenson has been my physician for probably 27 years. I would never go to anyone else as long as he is practicing. I trust him. He takes such good care of me and just respect everything. There's not one thing bad I could say about him.
