Mauricio Levine, MD

Do not go to this OB/​GYN if you have problems with your period– cycle or hormones. He might be good at delivering children but horrible in treating PCOS/​Fibroids or anything else. He prescribed yeat infection meds — I’ve never had a yeast infection in my life. I have PCOS/​fibroids, had already been evaluated 2xs prior and his conclusion was wait till menopause. Oh sure ill wait and keep bleeding 10 years to fix problem. Also gave some type of b control to start period, made me horribly hungry and as I write this review am having hunger pains. Just awful never again will I return to this place. I’m only going to an MD who actually gets a period and knows what it’s like to have monthly irregularities. Or break through bleeding or no period at all due to PCOS/​fibroids. Oh and had to wait 1 hr to be seen after I actually had an appt scheduled.

Dr. Mauricio Levine is an amazing doctor. You can really tell that he and his staff actually care about you. They are thorough and do not rush to get you out, always taking the time to explain things and follow up with any concerns or questions. Dr. Levine is also fluent in Spanish which made me feel even more comfortable being able to speak my native language. Furthermore, his office is in a great location and very well kept, making the OB/​GYN experience even better. I was referred to Dr. Levine by friends and I will continue to refer him to others. I know I’m in good hands under his care.

If you are expecting parents, don’t go to this Dr he is a terrible choice.
Starting with his staff (especially the front desk lady) at his office who is always pissed of at you or something.
My wife and I are well learned persons, and were amazed with the things this Dr said.
Turns out that my wife developed a condition called preeclampsia @34−35 weeks so we went to this Dr the only thing he did was monitorize her and talked her to drink lots of water and get some bed rest, during this time I started to read and investigate about this condition, turns out that if its not treated right with medication it can evolve into something fatal for either mom and baby or even both. That in most cases the best thing is to deliver the baby as soon as possible, c section is the best choice.
I told the Dr about this and what does he say I’m not doing a c section lets wait till week 40 until she goes into labor.
Long story short the 4^th of July weekend came up and we went down to TJ to visit my inlaws, during that time my wife starts feeling dizzy and tells me she started seing twinkling lights (this was because of the preeclampsia), drove my wife to the hospital inTJ the Drs there took a look at her and told me she had to have an emergency c section other wise things could get worse for my wife and baby.
They did an ultrasound and found out that the placenta was getting old and ugly and that my baby had the umbilical cord wrapped around for days now, that if we have waited more who knows what could of happend (when she was monitorized just 2 days before nether him or his staff saw that).
Thankfully my wife and baby are doing excelent right now. I just want to warn expecting moms and dads about this so called Dr with such a terrible judgment

I love having Dr Levine as my OB/​GYN doctor. He always makes me feel comfortable and takes my concerns seriously. I never feel rushed during my visits because he takes the time to explain everything thoroughly. He takes his practice beyond the office and calls me on the phone whenever I have any pending questions or concerns. If you are looking for a caring doctor who cares about you and your family, go see Dr Levine. He also speaks Spanish which is a plus!

I didnt even get to see Dr Levine I saw some butch looking woman who just brushed my issue off like nothing was wrong with me, She told me everythings normal and she doesnt know what to tell me. I was so furious I walked out. I wish I could have actually seen the doctor perhaps then he could have had some insight as to whats wrong with me

I agree with Marie E. I went to my first appointment and they have no organization skills whatsoever. I came half an hour early so I can get the paperwork out of the way and was told to come back in thirty mins that they were going to lunch. I come back and just like mentioned the door was unlocked but they did not open the door to let us know they were back or to come in. I did get an apology from the nurse though. I was told to pick up my prescription for vitamins at the pharmacy when I went to the pharmacy they didn’t have it so they called the office and the receptionist said she had no idea what they were talking about? This place was PACKED and the receptionist muttered under her breathe «It’s going to be one of those days». I understand dealing with people sucks some times but ffs try not to be so rude or at least don’t make it so obvious that you hate your job. I don’t see myself coming back to this place even though I really like the location.

Want my advice? Do NOT go to this doctor. Don’t let the new building fool you, you won’t be pleased here.
First of all, in the four months I was a patient here I saw the actual doctor once. I kept getting appointments with their midwife who doesn’t even deliver the baby. When I would ask about seeing the docter I would get the stink eye. When we finally met him he made it so obvious that he wanted us in and out practically pushing us out the door and didn’t really want to answer our questions. He made it seem as if we were taking up his time (total visit with the doctor: 5 minutes). Most of the certifications he has hanging on his wall are from Mexico btw. With regards to his staff, oh where do I begin? The front desk lady is the worst one! She is the heavier set lady with the black hair who is always browsing the internet instead of working. She obviously hates her job or should not work customer service. She rolls her eyes, she is rude (in person and on the phone). Just asking her a question feels like we are inconveniencing her. The ultrasound tech was nice but again, too quick, in and out and didn’t even let us enjoy seeing our baby for the first time. Their equiptment isn’t the best either. The midwife was nice but she told us she would do one thing only to say to the staff she never said that (not professional and not cool). One time we went to our appointment 5 minutes early only to find the door locked (I’m assuming for their lunch?). I knocked and no one answered. I could hear them laughing inside. Finally, five mintues AFTER my scheduled appointment someone got up and unlocked the door (mind you only unlocked it, didn’t even open it to say hello or apologize after they heard me knocking). On top of that I STILL had to wait ten minutes for them to get their sh$t going and call me up. I have never been seen on time. The most I’ve waiting is 40 minutes to see the midwife.
I’m not even done but one thing that grossed me out was that as you know you have to give a urine sample each time you visit. You go to the restroom and place your sample in that cubby that they get from the otherside… tell me I didn’t open up that cubby only to find two samples from other women still sitting there in the cubby?! WTF?
I don’t care if you are paying by medi-​cal, private insurance or cash, no one should have to endure the stupidity and lack of customer service from these people.
I know, I know #harshbuttrue
BTW: Dr. Levine will not be delivering my baby.

I have been a patient of Dr Levine for the past 15 years and I am extremely confident that I have the best care possible. Besides being a great doctor, Dr. Levine is a very caring and warm human being. He always takes all the time I need to ask my questions and give and explain in detail his recommendations; as if I was the only patient in his office, when in fact his waiting room is always quite full. The office is extremely well kept and the staff is nice and courteous. He was the one who tied my tubes 10 years ago and has taken care of me through other ups and downs and I can only hopethat that he will be around to deliver my grandchildren!

Do NOT go to this doctor.
Years ago, I went to the emergency room because I was in massive amounts of pain and I was bleeding for no reason. I thought I had an ovarian cyst that had ruptured but nobody could tell me anything. Instead, they referred me to this ‘specialist’.
So this ‘specialist’ wouldn’t listen to anything I was saying. Does an older male have any idea how this feels? No, I don’t think so. I had done some research and had diagnosed myself with having endometriosis. I brought it up to him and he said it was ‘highly unlikely’ because of my age. Whatever.
Long story short, I ended up having some minor surgery to get properly diagnosed. He said that he doubts that he would «find anything wrong» and what do you know. I HAVE ENDOMETRIOSIS.
So thanks a lot for making me feel crazy and stupid. I know my body and apparently you don’t. The only thing I want is for no girl to have to go through this. It was exhausting and ridiculous.
I don’t live in the area anymore but would like to give a warning… unless you like doctors that don’t listen to what you have to say.
