Levi D Harrison, MD

Great guy! As a Personal Trainer I work with my hands all day and have developed certain issues. I went to Doctors and specialists all over LA from Beverly Hills to the east side. After getting shoddy service, finally I got someone who knows what they’re doing with proper technical skill. Quality.

It has been almost 3 years since my table saw accident (8÷14÷11) I severely caused injury to 3 of my fingers in the left hand; index, middle and ring. It was a very gruesome and terrifying experience. The saw blade ripped diagonally across my 3 fingers causing major nerve damage. I never thought my fingers would ever be normal or even have use of my hand. I was referred to Dr. Harrison and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. I’ve waited this long to write a review, and tell my story as a true testimonial of his expertise and level of patient care. He treated as a family member, spent valuable time with me, answering all of my questions and comforting me by saying that everything was going to be OK. He explained his approach to reconstruction of my fingers and manage my expectations. After a long surgery and about 3 months of physical therapy, I regained use of my fingers and full hand functionality. I was back working on my projects and using the table saw, except a lot more careful. My fingers look normal except for slight signs of scar tissue and a bit of numbness to my index and middle finger; this is due to the extensive nerve damage.
A minor price to pay for having my fingers back… I thank God for putting Dr. Harrison in my path. Thank You Dr. Harrison you are the BEST!

Dr. Danny Levi Harrison, is my hand surgeon. I have carpal tunnel injuries to both wrist and elbows. Some shoulder pain and neck pain. I have been his patient for several years. I have never had a doctor treat me like a family member before. He treats you as if you were his mother, sister or brother. After my first surgery, he called my home to check on me. I was shocked. But, he really does care. If he doesn’t call, his staff will. He will try many methods to make you feel better. I have muscle spasms in my neck. He has sent me to physical therapy, which didn’t really work. So, he tried Acupuncture. That actually made me feel better. He always ready to try something new. If something doesn’t work he will keep trying to ease your pain. I recommend him to all of my friends and family.
Note: I live almost 50 miles away. I will keep him as my doctor forever.

I will not recommend this Dr he is in rush to see pts, having this Dr is been a really bad experience. He is such a money hungry person that do not have any compassion or respect to another human.

Dr D. Levi Harrison is the worst!
I had a very BAD experience with this Dr. 1. Always in a rush even running out the door when I told him I wasn’t done asking questions, 2. Each appointment was no longer then two minuets 3. After surgery I was unable move my thumb BAD, enough that I had to have a second course with another Dr. Think twice before you have Dr D. Levi Harrison care for you because he doesn’t he is more interested in his fitness… CB

I was really disappointed with my experiences here.
First, I want to offer a full disclaimer: I am rating this doctor based on visits that were approx 2010. I assure you about the accuracy of my claims. I take copious notes and even have some audio from visits with his office.
I broke my pinky. Ended up I had some sort of tumor (enchondroma) that had weakened the bone. The urgent care center referred me to Dr. Harrison.
When I met with him, his first suggestion was to make some sort of splint to support the bone better than the cast that the urgent care center put on. He gave me this nice pre-​made thing with an aluminum bar in it. You can bend the aluminum to customize the fit.
He was very rushed, but put it on me then explained we was going to shape it WHILE IT WAS ON. I was concerned. He assured me it’d be cool. He starts bending it, goes to far and the pain is so intense that I drop to me knees and let out a non-​manly scream. :(That was the whole meeting.
I called the manufacturer and they advised that the splint should be shaped off hand, then test fit, then reshape and repeat until the desired result is achieved.
So that’s strike one.
He says I have to come back later after he gets the radiologist report. I ask if the report can be sent to me and he explained it has to go through his office since he is the doctor that ordered it. No biggie. I make the appt, then a couple days before the appt I call the office to verify everything is ready for my appt.
I come in for the follow up appt when he was going to explain what was in the MRI. He didn’t have the report. I got upset and asked why he had me come in and he said he wanted to check up on me anyways… but he didn’t know the report wasn’t in until I was in the waiting room. He had the office girls refund my copay fee for coming in. Gee. thanks for the $ 20 and for wasting my day. I took half a day off work for that meeting and I’m waiting to hear from you IF I HAVE CANCER!!!
Strike two for wasting my time.
Later on, I get the paper work from the insurance company and I was charged for X-​rays in the first meeting, but no x-​rays were taken! I call the office, they say it’s all taken care of. No biggie.
A few weeks later I get a call saying I have an outstanding balance for x-​rays AND that I had a COPAY that wasn’t paid!!! WHAT??? I politely explained to the gal the situation. I go on to say that I know he still got paid by the insurance company for the x-​rays (this was verified with Anthem) and that technically he owes THEM money. I ask them consider the issue resolved, or they could take it up with anthem. That brings us to a few weeks ago, approx March 2012. I get ANOTHER call saying that I STILL have an outstanding balance. I again explain the situation. I haven’t heard back, so I’m considering this issue resolved.
It’s still a strike 3 for ripping off the insurance company and not keeping your records up to date. Dr. Harrison, if this gets sent to collections I will resolve the issue myself with the insurance company. I’m sure they’d like to hear about getting charged for x-​rays that never happened.
I also think he did a crummy job of telling me I needed to see an oncologist and might have cancer. He just threw it out there like it happens all the time– which for him, it might… but for me it was pretty much catastrophic.
All in all, the doctor seemed like a nice guy. But after 3 or 4 appts there, these items above and a few others made me realize I had to take my radiology report and head elsewhere.

It’s been awhile since I’ve been to this office so I hope it has improved but here’s my experience. My son, who was 7 yrs old at the time, broke his thumb and was referred here. The Dr. is amazing — he is great with kids, he’s friendly and charismatic. I had no problems with the Dr. at all. Based on just him I would have given 5 stars. My gripe is with his front office staff. My son had many appointments for follow up care and each time the front desk staff was unprofessional. I would be standing there waiting for help and they would be sitting there doing nothing but talking about personal issues. It’s one thing if you’re busy and the patient has to wait a moment but they weren’t doing anything work related! For the last appointment needed, the Dr. said he could give me a Sat. appointment because he was implementing that day of the week. I thought GREAT! That way I didn’t have to miss anymore time off of work (unpaid time I might add) BUT after he told me this and left me with the front desk staff they were talking to one another in front of me COMPLAINING about the office being open on Sat. Well sometime after that I received a call from his front desk staff stating that they needed to reschedule us because they would not be open Sat. after all. I informed them that was the only day I could go because of work so my appointment got canceled, no reschedule. I hope he’s gotten rid of those whiny girls that work there.
