Levine Sari R MD

Dr. Sari Levine has been my Urologist for 20 years1 Through surgeries, biopsies, and a continuing degenerative neurolgical illness that affects almost everything, she has patiently and professionally handles all the bums in the road.
Yes, sometimes you have to wait, as emergencies in this area are not uncommon. But when she does come into the examining room, she acts like you are her only patient that day.

Dr. Levine is a caring, thorough physician. She is extremely well-​read and current on all clinical studies re: urology, let’s cut to the chase-​she knows her stuff. And she cares about her patients.
The office, despite it being extremely busy, is very efficient. I was sent a follow up appointment, called by Dr. Levine’s nurse re: my lab results two days after my appointment and my prescription was called in to the pharmacy.
You may have to wait to see Dr. Levine. I waited almost an hour before I was called back to a room. Oh, I’m sorry; Dr. Levine is a SURGEON; DUH, all the people that complained about her-​urologists are SURGEONS who specialize in the urinary tract??? She was in surgery and apologized about her tardiness when she announced herself strolling into my exam room; she’s pleasant and funny. And, when she knows it’s game time-​she gets really serious and does not mince any words! Hey, she’s a straight shooter and communicates very well!
I would trust her with any of my family members. She’s a great doc!

I have a very different experience with Dr. Levine. I had been suffering from what my doctors thought were chronic UTIs. After seeing Dr. Levine, I was diagnosed with bladder irritation; she prescribed some blue pills that I only need to take occasionally and cleared up the problem. I found her to be very caring and knowledgeable. I have been telling my friends that she is my best doctor since she is not only competent but has a very nice bedside manner. I highly recommend her.

Nightmare on Hospital Drive. Get the feeling she’s completely disconnected from the painful diagnostic procedures performed. Totally insensitive to the the human being she’s treating.
You wait forever and then she blows in and out, not communicating anything about any of the torturous tests she or her nurse are about to administer. By the way, neither of them knew how to use one of their in office diagnostic devices. However, I was still charged for a bogus test. Her attitude is aloof, arrogant, overbearing and rough. All that would be tolerable if she made up for it with medical brilliance… she doesn’t. In fact, she’s mediocre at best. Consider using Dr. Christopher Payne at Stanford for kind, caring, gentle, compassionate treatment. He gets it right!

Dr. Levine helped save my life by monitoring my PSA after prostatectomy. She is very experienced, and has always taken time to thoroughly answer all my questions. She really cares about her patients and the outcomes of her treatment plans.

Love her. Our whole family goes to her an she is great. She is forward, but very honest and knowledgeable. She has been right on with our whole family!!!

Another doctor who closed up her practice recommended my wife to Dr. Levine. My wife saw her 2−3x before giving up. While I will credit Dr. Levine for doing a ultra-​sound that the previous doctor did not do, she did not find the fibroids that another doctor found that turned out to be majority source of the issues affecting my wife. The Appt. s tended to be as such: Dr. Levine would fly into the room where we waited and talk very fast and loud (and I mean LOUD and my hearing is lousy!) and rattle off ideas or suggestions then fly out of the room. My wife ended up getting recommendations from friends and finding a OB/​GYN who helped her greatly.
