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.

He is knowledgeable, down to earth and will spend all the time necessary to check you out and then explain in layman's terms the problem and the proposed treatment

Lucky to have found Dr. Levitt
So lucky I found Dr. Levitt. The skin on my right shin was itching horribly, such much so that it was starting to take over my thinking. Dr. Levitt recognized the condition (eczema), prescribed the right cream, and soon my itch was just gone. Such a relief. Dr. Levitt was caring, calm, knowledgeable, answered all of my questions, and even placed a follow-up call over the weekend just to see how my leg was healing. Highly recommended.

Dr. Jacob Levitt is the most efficient, caring, focused and overall effective dermatologist in New York City. At a time when so many doctors are so inefficient, and just don't care about you at all -- just stare at their little screen, and never look at you. Possibly the USA. And I've been to many in numerous cities. Besides being a stand up guy, so to speak, what makes Dr. Levitt so good is the fact that he sees every patient as an individual -- and in a global way. He doesn't just look at the outside. He looks at all the elements that may be causing the external issues. And most of all, unlike most doctors in New York these days -- he really cares about each patient. He goes way past where most doctors will go. Besides being a truly great Dermatologist, he's a better internist than most internists I've been to.

I highly recommend Dr Levitt. I have a very rare disease and he wasted no time putting together a great team of specialists and getting me started on the right medications. Doctors like him are rare and patients like me are blessed to have found him.

I highly recommend Dr. Levitt as a dermatologist. I have a rare skin disease and Dr. Levitt took me on from another area. He is caring, thorough and very smart.
