Sick visits
Dr Levy can accommodate his regular patients at short notice for sick visits.
As you know a Federal Law prohibits doctors to prescribe medications without examining patients. Therefore doctors do not prescribe over the phone and we appreciate your understanding on this matter.
Please note that if you have a life threatening emergency, such as chest pain, you must call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Also if you have a question or you feel uneasy about your condition, most times discussing this with your doctor can be the best cure. To make an appointment, call 212 288 7193.
