Memories and Condolences

One of my earliest memories was of Dr. Levy doing a home visit when I was about 4 years old. He was the pediatrician for our family of 9 children. We all remember him fondly for his gentle kindness and true concern for the family as a whole. His work in Battle Creek truly influenced a generation.

I am glad my wife and I got to spend sometime with Dock Levy a few years ago when I visited BC after 35-45 years. He was not only my Doctor but also a neighbor down the street. My best to the family.. Ken Herst

I was so very sad to read that Dr. Levy had passed. Dr. Levy remains one of my favorite doctors of all time. In addition to my parents, I credit Dr. Levy for saving my life (I was literally dying with TB when I was adopted at age three from Korea). He was such a gentle, kind, and caring doctor. He set the gold standard for doctors and it was a privilege to be one of his patients.

Dr. Levy was the best doctor ever. He was my ped. and for both of my sons also. They also adored him. He had a way of making you feel better when in an emergency, because you were always sure of his knowledge. He once told me that he always listened to what the mom thought because of her gut feelings on th situation. What a doctor indeed. God bless his family!!

I remember Dr. Levy as a child also. He was the best doctor ever. I even remember him coming to our house, when we were sick, and unable to come to his office. My mother still mentions his name often, and she said he was more like a friend, than a dr. Always so kind, and truely cared for his patients.

Dear Mrs. Levy,
Dr. Levy was a wonderful doctor in Battle Creek but what I remember most is all the times we came to jump on your trampoline or play tennis and he was always so nice to us. Our neighborhood was better because of him and you.
Peace Always,

Dr. Levy was a kind human being. I had him as a doctor and I was very ill when I was young. He did a great job of taking care of me and always had a kind word for me. He made an effort the last few years to come and see me at my job and was as charming as always. He will be sorely missed.

Dr Levy was my pediatrician as a child, I am now 44 yrs old and I remember him like it was just yesterday. He was such a gentle man, it always upset me that I was unable to see him after I became a teenager. My thoughts are with you all.

The best pediatrician ever, he cared for our 3 boys until they were 16 and we loved him. He never rushed you in and out always had time for you, just a terrific person.
