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.

Best Retina Macula Specialist .
Has restored my sight a couple of times. I have been his patient for many years and will not go anywhere else. Great bedside manner.

Excellent care on 5/5/2023.
Excellent. 5 stars. Very appreciative of the world class care he and his staff provided to my disabled mother on 5/5/2023. Impressed with the thorough 1st evaluation/intake that also included same day pre-auth's for an avastin shot saving me (i.e., caregiver) from another appointment and another day off work. Exceeded expectations.

Outstanding experience
My experience with Dr. Levy was outstanding. The entire staff was so kind, and welcoming. I needed injections in my eye, and as scary as that sounds, I felt nothing! The doctor is so kind, and skilful. I could not be happier or more grateful. Five star treatment.

Dr. Levy is the GOAT!
I have been coming to Dr. Levy's office for almost 5 years since I learned that I had a serious retina/macula condition. He has the Midas touch and I don't fret when I need my injections. His team is also amazing and very down to Earth. I have NEVER had an unpleasant experience.

Wonderful surgeon
Dr Levy is a skilled and confident surgeon. During my retinal detachment surgery, and follow through, he was always understanding and responsive to my questions and concerns. Highly recommend Dr L and his staff.

Phenomenon office
This place is an eye-opening facility, professional and has an amazing staff. Dr. Levy is professional, with a caring environment supported by an amazing staff. Melisa the tonometry retina reader, keeps memory of everyone she meets; Leslie is a charming people-person; Desire is an appointment specialist. She has a star-power personality with a killer smile. Her expertise is finding just the right time for your working schedule; Sabrina is a smooth multi-task receptionist who can speak different languages. Joseph is a pain-killer. He is a soft-spoken gentleman, who voice relaxes you while he is numbing the pain.

Long Office Visit
The office waiting time was 90 minutes and lab work time was 30 minutes. Only saw Dr Levy for about 5 minutes. I’m not satisfied with time he spent with me in exam room. Dr Levy needs more staff to handle large number of patients in Coral Gables office.
