Best doctor ever
I wouldnt trust anyone but Dr. Levitan with my eyes. I have uvitis and any new symptoms make your worry about losing eyesight very quickly. Dr. Levitan came in to see me on weekends and evenings, whenever I needed him. There is always...Worst treatment ever...
Dr. Harper is an egotistical, self serving, tactless doctor who is more interested in paying his mortgage than caring for patient's vision. He lasered my left eye leaving me half blind then wanted to work on my right eye immediately...American Express
