Sherri S Levin, MD

Love love love Dr. Levin! I switched to her practice after I found out I was expecting and decided to deliver at Memorial Hermann Memorial City and couldn’t be happier with my choice. Every time I’ve gone for a doctors appointment she and her staff are timely, friendly, and informative. I highly recommend Dr. Levin!

I’m also confused about the negative reviews of Dr. Levin. I had a bad experience elsewhere and was referred to her (about 5 of my friends see her as well), and immediately knew she was the doctor for me. She’s sweet, spunky, and listened to my concerns.
In response to the review of only delivering c-​section babies, that is completely untrue. My friend just gave birth naturally with her about 2 months ago!
Give Dr. Levin a chance. She’s my favorite!

Terrible at scheduling. Scheduled me 4 months early for my 3^rd gardasil shot and had me coming in 45 min away and leaving work early with only a simple «oops sorry.» On my second shot, they had me waiting 1 hr and 30 min for simply a shot. Front desk staff here is not very friendly or very bright. Too bad because I like Dr. Chu. As a result I would not recommend this place.

Dr. Levin has performed two major surgeries on me: I had a massive 1 pound dermoid cyst removed along with the ovary and she did a total hysterectomy after my second diagnosis of breast cancer.
So, to say I’ve been through a lot with Dr. Levin is a massive understatement.
I’ve read the negative reviews here on Unilocal!and can’t help wondering if we’re seeing the same doctor!
My relationship with Dr. Levin’s practice began almost 13 years ago when I was referred to her by my endocrinologist. I had had surgery a few years previous to remove several fibroid tumors by another doctor. My reproductive system was a mess.
She and I dealt with the dermoid and there was a huge effort to get my remaining ovary to actually work so I could get pregnant. But there was just too much damage in my pelvic area and she was amazingly supportive as I faced the fact that I could not be a mother.
Then, when I discovered my breast lump at 39, it was her nurse practitioner who got me into the diagnostic process. They recommended a very fine surgeon to deal with my cancer.
I came back to Dr. Levin for my annual after diagnosis. She walked into the room, grabbed a handful of tissues, walked over and wrapped her arms around me. I broke down and sobbed and she held me while I cried.
When I was diagnosed the second time, I decided to do a hysterectomy along with the mastectomy during the same surgery. Her office bent over backward to make that plan work and before I went into surgery, Dr. Levin came to tell me how much she cared for me.
I send all my friends to Dr. Levin. My sister lives overseas and when she’s home she sees Dr. Levin. I feel very strongly about her as a doctor.
I recognize the issue regarding the waiting room. It’s possible to be in there a long time. But, to be honest, I’ve never had an OBGYN ever be on time for appointments so don’t get too frustrated with it.
I understand the frustrations of the other posters and hope the found much better situations that suited them better.

I have been under Dr. Levin’s care for my third pregnancy and found she is a wonderful doctor. I wish she had been my doctor for my first two pregnancies! She is very attentive to me and any questions I have. She has a warm, motherly bedside manner and is always truly excited to see me. I am looking forward to the delivery experience! She was recommended to me by a friend and I will recommended her to others!

I first came to Dr. Levin’s office when I found out I was expecting my little girl (who is now 13 months-​and is just the biggest blessing we could have ever been given, btw). We had some rough edges with this dr. but I am so happy we moved past that and she was still willing to be my OB in my pregnancy. All in all, I could not have asked for better looking at my experience from a whole. The ladies at the front desk are always really nice, and yes, there is usually a wait in the waiting room but these really are good, caring dr’s. I’ll never forget the day I was due to have my c-​section Dr Levin came in when they were about to admit me for the procedure to begin, she hugged me and said «I heard we are going to have a baby today!» It was the sweetest, and she knew how to calm me down at all times. Thank you for the most pleasant ending-​delivering our beautiful daughter. I recommend this OB-​Gyn.

Until very recently I had been a patient of Dr. Levin for about 7 years. Through out this time her office staff has always been super nice, patient and courteous. Everything you would have ever hoped for in an Ob Gyn Office. I loved them! It has taken me several months to decide if I was going to write this review or not. I decided others needed to know my opinion of this practice over the course of the past 7 years.
I am going to be sort of vague since I don’t really feeling like divulging my entire medical history to Unilocal.This practice isn’t for me. They don’t focus on wellness and helping patients understand their conditions. They just want you to go on medication and get out of their office. Dr. Levin is honestly the worst about this. I feel that her only concern is her medi-​spa. When I was 24 she diagnosed me with a disorder and basically was just like take all these pills. I had returned to her with concerns and was brushed off. At the time I really didn’t know any better and just decided to stick it out. I was really happy that she added physicians to her practice. Dr. Gonzalez was a godsend to me at a difficult time and is the only reason that I continued to stick around. When I returned for a routine follow up exam with her I wasn’t informed she was gone on maternity leave and was left in the hands of Dr. Chu. I went in finally very educated and with legitimate questions. I found her to be extremely abrasive and cold. She refused to run lab tests on me and dismissed all of my concerns and suggestions. She immediately suggested a very high risk medication to me only explaining the way it was administered and not the side effects. She gave me no other options than medications. I left the office in tears and that is when I decided I was done.
I laughed when I got my yearly appointment card in the mail, especially since they changed the frequency in which you need a pelvic exam based on age and made it very clear to me at my list visit. I am not sure if they are needing $$ or what. My recommendation is that if you come to this practice, be prepared to do a ton of research because they won’t explain anything to you. Question everything and don’t back down. I really wish I could have stayed with Dr. Gonzalez but if I am left in the hands of either of the other two doctors in her absence it is just not a risk I am willing to take.

I never actually went to see Dr. Levin but I did have the good fortune to find out what kind of doctor she was before I wasted my time on her… Here is how the phone conversation with the appointment desk went:
Me: I’m about 5 weeks pregnant so I’m interested in setting up an initial pregnancy consultation with Dr. Levin.
Dr. Levins Appt Desk: The only way Dr. Levin would be willing to take you on as a new patient is if you agreed to have a scheduled C-​Section delivery.
Me: So, you’re telling me Dr. Levin will not even attempt to perform a natural birth and that I must agree to a c-​section even if it is not medically necessary?
Dr. Levins Appt Desk: Yes, that is correct.
Andddddddddd cue the crickets… what kind of doctor will *only* deliver babies via a c-​section even if not medically necessary??? From my impression, a doctor that doesn’t want to waste her valuable time with some preggo lady whose labor may or may not last hours. Just schedule the surgery and get it over with and then on to the next one! Thank GOD the receptionist disclosed this information! Pregnant ladies beware…

I usually don’t write bad reviews lightly but this was an unusual experience. I went to see Dr. Levin for a fibroid consultation — first I encountered a receptionist who never made eye contact, she seemed to be busy with a lot of paper work, which seemed very odd to me. Then I waited for over 1 ½ in a very cold room. Finally Dr. Levin came in, rushed me and told me nothing I didn’t already know. She also told me that she was running late because they had a patient with pregnancy complications they had to deal with. Then I step out to check out and I hear the whole story of the patient standing at the check out desk. I was only at the desk for less than 5 minutes and heard every little detail about the emergency c-​section and high blood pressure, that this was her second pregnancy, etc. I felt really awkward and bewildered as to why they did not offer the poor patient a room to sit in until they figured out what they will do with her, oh and they were also calling her insurance to get an approval to check her into the hospital. I felt like there is no regard to patient confidentiality what so ever. I was asked to come back for regular check up but I think I am looking elsewhere. I am praying that everything went well for that patient.

If you dont want to get disappoint and depress dont go there!
I was dr chu’s patient. She doesn’t want anything but money!!! She makes you to come back every 2 weeks by calling you and saying that you have new diseases! !! They also call you 3– 5 minutes they get close and they leave a voicemail that you are sick!!! So you gonna be worry till tomorrow of that day to call back them! And they’ll never answer your phone you have to leave a msg again till they call you back again !!! And finally cuz you are so woryy about yourself you do whatever she says and spending money and at the end … yea nothing was wrong w you.

HORRIBLE!!! New patient and I was waiting for 1 ½ hrs in the waiting room then when I was called back to get undressed, I waited for another hour to see the doctor. I went outside to look for someone to ask how much longer it would be and all the nurses AND doctor were standing talking and laughing. Once she FINALLY came in she rushed everything. Didn’t ask me how I was doing, didn’t ask me any questions about my current pregnancy, wasn’t gentle during the exam. She rushed through my ultrasound and took REALLY bad pictures and only 2 might I add. She seemed kind of cold and not interested in dealing with me. So I decided to find a different doctor and in order for the new doctor to see me, Dr. Levin’s office would have to fax over my record. I waited over a month waiting for the new doctor that i had picked out to receive a fax from Dr. Levin and they kept saying they never received it. So I called Dr. Levin’s office and the lady explained to me in order for them to fax over my record, I needed to explain to them why I didn’t stay with them. On top of that, they keep sending me a bill for $ 7 for I dont even know what and they won’t explain to me what it’s for so I told them they are never going to get that $ 7 because of the HORRIBLE service I had received.

I love Dr. Levin. I began coming to her in 2008 after I needed emergency surgery I remove a giant cyst from my ovary. Everyone on her staff made me feel comfortable and more calm, and they took care of me even though I was in horrible pain, and obviously panicked. It’s never easy to be on vacation and told you have to have surgery NOW, let alone when you’re in a foreign country. Dr. Levin not only made the time for me (with about 12 hours notice) and performed the surgery, but both she and her staff recognize me and still remember me from that day.
I’ve been coming here ever since then, and have zero complaints. I highly recommend her to all my female friends, and Unilocal readers. All the nurses and the doctors (Dr. Levin is now one of about three doctors in the practice) are friendly, helpful, and ask good questions while I’m there. They also take the time to listen, and don’t talk over me or dismiss my concerns without explaining my options first. I really appreciate it when doctors make you feel important, and like thier #1 concern is your health and wellbeing. Dr. Levin and her staff make me feel like thier #1 patient each and every time I’m in their office.
If you want to see Dr. Levin, schedule your appointment ahead of time. Last I heard, she is also head OBGYN for Memorial Hermann, so she stays very busy. I personally prefer to see her, since she was the one that helped me all those years ago, but I have seen two of the other doctors and they were both very nice.

At first I was very skeptical because I didn’t know if Dr. Levin was the right doctor for me but she is. I haven’t had any problems with Dr. Levin. Her whole staff is very friendly. I like it how its really easy to schedule early appointments and/​or lunch time. I’ve been here 3 times and has never had any trouble. She is great.

Because my usual doctor decided to move his office to Katy, I looked for a replacement. My future sister-​in-​law recommended Dr. Sherri Levin.
It is obvious that Dr. Levin has a very successful practice (OB/​GYN), her office occupies most of the 21^st floor in the new tower at Memorial Hermann Memorial City Medical Center. The office is plush and bustling. The staff is courteous and efficient. My first appointment, Dr. Levin was in delivery so I was asked if I wanted to wait or I could see the nurse practitioner. I agreed to see the NP. It was still quite a wait but the NP was personable and took extensive notes. She recommended another appointment to address my concerns.
Visit number two went without a hitch (they ran a test). The NP looked at the images and recommended a procedure that she briefly explained and made it sound like it was no big deal. Dr. Levin would be doing the procedure.
The third visit was a disaster and I don’t want to go further with what happened except I lost all respect & confidence in Dr. Levin.
I have been contacted by the office to schedule a followup appointment which I ignored. Instead I faxed them a request for the test results. This has been over three weeks and I have yet to get a response from them.
