About Vet

My experience with Vetster featured on the Vetster blog: https://vetster.com/en/blog/for-vets/vet-spotlight-dr-levisman-is-a-true-vetster-star-with-1500-vetster-reviews-and-counting

I have 20+ years of experience in veterinary medicine (general practice, emergencies and specialties), working at veterinary hospitals, centers and clinics all over the Los Angeles area (and other countries too).
My specialties are general medicine and nephrology (kidneys and urinary tract) and I am currently pursuing my board certification in Internal Medicine.

My professional career has been quite a journey. I got my Veterinary degree in 2004 from the University of Buenos Aires in Argentina. I then decided I wanted to move to the States, but applying (and getting) a working visa back in those days was not an easy task. After finally finding a sponsorship and three attempts later, I was able to relocate to Los Angeles, CA. In order to live and study for my USA/CA license, I worked as a technician while passing my exams. Finally, in 2012, I officially became a DVM in the USA! But..(there's always a but) my working visa only allowed me to work as a tech. At the same time, I met my future wife (Argie too). We decided to move back temporarily to Argentina in order to obtain our Green Cards. We spent three years down there, obtained our Green Cards and once again (this time for good) we settled in Los Angeles. Since then, I've been practicing Veterinary Medicine in small animals as an associate doctor, along with one of the most well-known veterinarians in Los Angeles (also on the side, working as a relief Vet).

Current regulations regarding the VCPR (Veterinarian-Client-Patient-Relationship), only allow me to prescribe medications to patients residing in CA. Therefore, only Telehealth advice and suggestions for OTC medication are possible for non-CA patients.

Dr. Levisman helped me quickly make a prescription game plan for my foster kitty, who had come down with an unexpected and nasty URI. He listened well to my concerns and worked with me to get her the appropriate treatment that I felt comfortable with. I will work with him again in the future and would highly recommend him!

My cat, Linus, was squiting one eye. I couldn't get an appointment with my vet for 5 days, and the wait at the vet emergency room was 8+ hours. I was able to get an appointment with Dr. Levisman within the hour and medicated eye drops the same day. The drops immediately made Linus more comfortable and we started to see results the next day. Thank you Dr. L.

Extremely good visit. Explain the situation in detail with a plan to help my dog medical situation. Took time to look at my dog and took a lot of time to talk to us to help through the process. Highly recommend!

It’s such a relief to receive truly personalized veterinary care for my cat. I was able to get a same-day appointment, the doctor was right on time, and the visit never felt rushed. I was given a clear plan of action for my concern, which gave me real peace of mind. Dr. Levisman was wonderful—knowledgeable, attentive, and easy to talk to. I’m so happy I subscribed to Vetster!! And my cat was happy to avoid a car ride!!!
