My Web Review
Michael Levin MD

I have had the opportunity of being under the care of Michael Levin MD since April
of 2004 which was upon referral from Michael Uro DPM. I am quite confident that I
am in the hands of a well educated and experienced man.

Having researched and reviewed his credentials, I have come to the conclusion that
the man is brilliant.

Perhaps his bedside manner is abrupt and unfriendly at times, (as a previous reviewer
added) but his overall demeanor is professional and reliable. I cannot recall a single
unpleasant incident for which I would then hesitate to attend follow-up visits.
Although, he has made me cry on more than one occasion it was in my best interest
that he did whether intentional or not. In additon, my overall impression, opinion and
rating of Dr. Michael Levin, the Sacramento Pain Clinic and the Sacramento Pain
and Diagnostic Treatment Center is that of 5 stars of excellence in the area of
treatment and patient care.
