Dr Levinson came highly recommended. He’s very knowledgeable in his field and I really appreciate his calming manner as he explains what’s happening with my eyes/retina and the various options. His administration staff was very understanding when I was a couple minutes late. I was given option dates for my next appointment which I find very helpful! I totally recommend Dr Levinson!

I've seen several ophthalmologists about some difficult to diagnosis symptomology. I'm relieved that Dr. Do finally got it right. In addition to being knowledgeable, he is also a clear and patient communicator. I recommend him. The assistant was also good.

Dr. Melamud is friendly, efficient, and professional. He explained my condition, which is not serious, but requires annual visits to make sure a problem does not develop later. The support staff is also very courteous and professional and all the procedures of dilation, retina scans, and photos moved very quickly and efficiently. Minimal waiting between procedures which is much appreciated.

This is a well-run practice. Dr. Levinson is an excellent doctor with a friendly bedside manner. He welcomes questions and responds effectively and with patience. His examinations are thorough and if you need a retina repair, he expertly performs the procedure right after the examination is complete. I highly recommend him.
