Dr. Levy has been recognized as one of America’s Most Compassionate Doctors. The Compassionate Doctor certification is part of the Patients’ Choice recognition program, where patients rate and vote for their favorite doctors. While physicians generally receive positive feedback from their patients, only a select few receive praise about the compassion that accompanied their care. In fact, of the nation’s 870,000 active doctors, only 3 percent were accorded this honor by their patients in 2012.
