Dr. Levine is in my opinion a wonderful doctor who has helped more than I can say. They say that sometimes you get what you pay for. This is one of those times.

Dr. Bruce Levine treated my son for OCD and depression. From day 1, I was impressed his true care for his patients. His deep knowledge and precise communication offered great comfort to my son and myself. My son's OCD symptom essentially disappeared after two months or so. For his depression, Dr. Levine recommended local psychologist who can treat him face to face, and he made sure my son is well covered until the transition. I wish every doctor cares about his patients as much as Dr. Levine does.

Best psychologist in Beverly Hills! Was able to seem him promptly and was very flexible in scheduling appointments. He has extensive knowledge in the field and is more qualified than his counterparts. He was very easy-going and always listened without judgement. I finished therapy making a friend and great leaps in my OCD treatment!

I found it so hard to find a decent psychologist, even here in Beverly Hills where there must be hundeds. After two really bad starts with (what I think were) inexperienced and badly trained therapists, I found Dr. Levine who moved here from NY maybe a year or so ago I guess. I looked at pics and read the things some of them said and was very disappointed. I don't want someone learning on me, instead I wanted someone who knows what they are doing and it's so hard to be sure.
I think Dr. Levine is at Cedars and UCLA but I saw him in his private office in BH and he was really great, at least for me. I can tell he was very professional, easy to talk to, helped me so much and really really cared. I don't usually write "reviews" but I wanted to help someone else like me who is searching without knowing how to do it.
