We love Dr. Levinson! He is very kind and gentle with our child. He asks how she is doing at school and listens to her patiently even when she can’t articulate her thought. I can tell she is very comfortable with Dr. Levinson because he smiles, and talks to her in a very gentle manner.
My husband and I turned down the suggestion of Clozaril by another doctor while our daughter was in the hospital because the medication requires blood test. After doing some research, we found out that Clozapine is effective on the patients who don’t respond to regular antipsychotic medications. One doctor at Yale also suggested Clozapine. We started looking for a doctor who prescribes Clozapine. It was hard to find one.
After initial intake, Dr. Levinson started saying “Look. It seems like your child tried many antipsychotic medications, but she didn’t respond well. “(which was true. She tried five kinds of antipsychotic medications over six months, but they had only partial effect with many unpleasant side effects.)
Dr. Levinson continued. “Now there is this medication called Clozaril...” That is when I cut him off saying “Yes, please!” I usually wait until my turn, but I was desperate to give our daughter the medication as soon as possible. We missed our child so badly. He looked very surprised. My husband and I explained how we did research on Clozaril, so we learned how effective Clozaril is on the patients who are resistant with other antipsychotic medications. I also told him that we are aware of the side effects, but we are willing to start Clozaril for our daughter.
We noticed the sign of recovery after three weeks she started taking Clozaril. She continued to recover slowly, but steadily. She was almost old self. However, she still heard voices every now and then.
Dr. Levinson suggested to add another medication which is usually used for the treatment for epilepsy.
We didn’t like the idea of adding more medication, so we told Dr. Levinson we want to think about it. He always understands, and gives us some time to think. After a couple of weeks, we asked him we want more information about supplemental medication. Dr. Levinson quickly sent us a video of this doctor explaining how adding another medication to Clozaril works. It was very resonating, so we asked to add Lamotrigine right away. Our daughter’s recovery sped up.
Dr. Levinson is kind and patient, also he is on top of the latest information of the medications. Our daughter’s doctor from the hospital asked us for his contact because she knows it is hard to find a good doctor who prescribes Clozaril. Also, the therapist our daughter sees wanted Dr. Levinson’s contact info because it is simply hard to find a good conscientious psychiatrist who is good with young patients.
She told me that her clients are so happy to know Dr. Levinson. Those parents call Dr. Levinson “a God Send”, and I totally agree with them. Thank you Dr. Levinson!
My daughter suffers from treatment resistant schizophrenia and Dr. Levinson was tremendous in assisting my daughter in her recovery. He was patient and effective in prescribing the medication that my daughter required. In particular, Dr. Levinson supports prescribing the medication clozapine/clozaril which other physicians shy away from due to the heavy monitoring requirements. This treatment has been very effective and my daughter has recovered a great deal under Dr. Levinson's care. We are thankful that Dr. Levinson both recommended this treatment option, but that he also supports it when other physicians will not.
Dr. Levinson helped me tremendously amidst a difficult time period. He was very understanding and his calm and laid back personality improved my mood with each visit.
I have been a patient of Dr Levinson since 2013 in and out (bc i lived 2 yrs overseas in between). I must say he is the best Dr. I have ever had and I have been through MANY psychiatrists- he was the only one to resolve my mental health issue. I am so greatul for Dr. Levinson's patience, kindness, professionalism and knowledge- not to mention excellent manners. From the first visit at his office I already felt secure and reassured that I'm in good hands and that everything would be ok. Thank God I'm doing better than ever and thatst thanks to Dr. Levinson's expertise. It just hit me that I've never written a review- better late than never!
I would recommend him to all my friends and relatives without even giving it a second thought. Thanks Dr for helping me get back on track!
