"I can't imagine a more fulfilling career than helping people restore & preserve their vision. My goal as a retina specialist is to deliver the highest quality care while taking the time to ensure my patients and their families are well-informed and comfortable throughout the process."

After graduating from the University of Georgia as a "First Honor Graduate," Dr. Levinson attended medical school at Emory University where he graduated Summa Cum Laude and was chosen by his peers as one of the five “Most Outstanding Medical Students." He completed his residency in Ophthalmology at Emory and served as the department's Chief Resident before finishing his two-year Surgical Retina fellowship. He then completed his two-year Surgical Retina Fellowship in the combined Retina Group of Washington-Washington Hospital Center-Georgetown University Hospital program, one of the highest-volume surgical fellowships in the country. Dr. Levinson has presented research at a myriad of national meetings including the American Society of Retina Specialists, Retina Society, Wash. Retina Symposium, Association for Research in Vision & Ophthalmology and the American Glaucoma Society.

Advocating for patients at both the state and local levels has afforded Dr. Levinson the opportunity to give back to those in need. He volunteered all through his med school years at the Open Door Clinic, a free community-based screening facility in Atlanta, was an Advocacy Ambassador for an American Academy of Ophthalmology program and helped develop an Ophthalmology Interest Group Clinical Skills Workshop to teach clinical skills to medical students.

Dr. Levinson authored over a dozen published research papers including research in improving the safety of intravitreal injections for macular degeneration and diabetes, outcomes of retinal surgery for retinal detachment and diabetic eye disease and inherited retinal dystrophies. His work has appeared in such journals as Ophthalmology Retina, American Journal of Ophthalmology, Retina, Journal of VitreoRetinal Diseases, Journal of Ophthalmology and Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers & Imaging Retina and the Journal of the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus.

Dr. Levinson was selected as a finalist in the Ophthalmology Times Research Scholar Honoree program at the American Academy of Ophthalmology for research work on improving the safety of intravitreal injections for macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. Heavily involved in the education of Georgetown Ophthalmology residents at the Washington Hospital Center and Lions Eye Clinic, Dr. Levinson supervised residents in the eye clinic and trained them to perform retinal laser procedures for treatment of retinal tears and diabetic retinopathy as well as intravitreal injections of medications to treat macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema. He served as an instructor in the Walter Reed Ocular Trauma Surgery lab teaching military ophthalmologists-in-training surgical techniques for repair of eye injuries.
