Dr. Levine was recommended by my colleagues in Medicine. I can't say for sure but he definitely was instrumental in making sure that our daughter (born December 29, 2009) after a seamless pregnancy but very unusual presentation at delivery didn't suffer any complications. Often our personal OBGYN doesn't happen to be the one on call when we deliver but it was great luck that he was.

Most are aware that a less experienced OBGYN wouldn't have known how to react but he did expertly and we are forever grateful.

I also had the pleasure of seeing his wife in clinic as well. We are forever grateful for our healthy 14-year-old daughter. I can see why the obstetric nurses at that hospital said that they are the best providers and that's who they turn to for care. Wishing so much peace and love upon this amazing family.

To all of Bob´s family my belated condolences. Bob was my Edinburgh roommate and college friend and I cherished those memories.
We lost touch when he went west. When he came to mind this morning and I looked him up, I was saddened to learn of his passing. He was a warm and classy guy and I am glad his life was full of joy.

Last night I played cards with my three adult children (18,20,22) - all delivered by Dr. Levine.
His memory is still very much alive and my heart is still filled with gratitude for the gift of caring he gave us when our children were born. His contribution to this world continues to radiate the through all the families he touched. Thank you Dr. Levine.

My deepest condolences to Karen and the whole family. I moved to Los Angeles in 2013 and just learned of Dr. Levine´ s passing. I was a patient of Dr Bohmke´s since 1992 and came to know everyone in the office during basic care and then the welcoming of my two amazing boys. I remember when a pregnant Karen introduced me to Bob... I was so envious of them working together with such ease and care. Bob always had a joke and smile when I saw him during prenatal rotation. I adored my visits with him. My heart goes out to your family

Oh my goodness! I just found out of Dr. Levine's passing. I was initially Dr. Bohmke's patient, until I miscarried and needed an emergency procedure. Dr. Levine came to the rescue. He was so gentle, kind, understanding and had a wonderful sense of humor. He was there for my last 2 pregnancies. My youngest "baby" is now 25. My fondest memories are when I came in for an appointment and as I turned the corner in the hallway, and out comes Dr. Levine eating a candy bar!

The other is when I was in labor with our last child. Apparently he was running down the hallway and told my husband he better hurry back to my room, "You know your wife. That baby's not waiting for anyone". Sure enough, our daughter was born a few minutes later.

His family has list a wonderful man. Blessings to them and may they cherish their memories of him. Naomi S.

Dr Bohmke and Dr Levine delivered my first son via emergency c-section. It was unusual that they performed surgery together but it was a lucky moment in that one was coming off and one was going on a shift. Everyone laughed a bit when Dr Levine brought his wife a stool to stand on to deliver Jackson. It was a wonderful day that my husband and I got to share with both of them. I am deeply saddened by this news and offer my condolences and prayers to the family.

We moved out of state for several years, so I have only just learned of Dr. Levine's passing, despite it being over two years ago. His gentle warmth is inextricably tied to my memories of pregnancy and child birth. He was a great source of support and confidence during two difficult pregnancies and a miscarriage. He was a unique physician - not only highly skilled, but also so present and compassionate during each visit, despite his demanding patient load. His gifts of grace and true caring live on in the many lives he helped bring into this world. My deepest condolences to his wife, daughters, and the many people whose lives he touched.

I just learned today, 8/5/2016 that Dr. Levine passed away and I am deeply saddened by the news. He delivered my first son, Nicholas, and was such a gentle doctor and a calming influence on me. That was my first live birth and Dr. Levine showed so much kindness and compassion to ensure that everything went well and that I was in good hands.

My heart goes out to his colleagues at NW Women's Health and especially his family.

June 20, 2016

I am in complete shock and full of tears at the news that Dr. Levine died on Dec. 26, 2014. He was an extraordinary man and amazing doctor. I called the office today to schedule an annual appointment. I live in Bothell now and have been seeing a local doctor the last few years. Because Northwest Women's Healthcare is so fantastic, I decided to go back. I am so sorry for the huge loss all of his friends, family and co-workers must feel. He was the doctor for me while I was pregnant with both of my children and delivered my daughter. My thoughts and prayers will continue to be with his family

I'm wrestling with tears this afternoon after learning of Robert's passing. He was my doctor for my pregnancies 1-3. When pregnant with my 4th child I had different insurance so had to find another provider, but at 37 weeks thanks to a new job/new insurance I was able to go back to him. It was at one of my final appointments that his daughter called with news of her college acceptance - he took her call with me in the room and his warmth, love and pride for her was overflowing. He was an exceptional father, doctor and human being. What a role model, what a privilege to have known him. Blessings and condolences to his family.

NO words to express how much Dr. Levine meant to me, and I was just a patient. My sincere condolences to his family, his colleagues and friends at large. A great human being.

I was crushed when I learned of Dr. Levine's passing today from a fellow patient and friend. Dr. Levine was my OB/GYN through both of my pregnancies - my boys are now 9 and 7 years old, and diagnosed my cervical cancer at a very early stage, referred me to a specialist and I've been cancer-free now for over five years. I credit him for saving my life. His warmth, grace, compassion and professionalism was exceptional - he was one of the best. His wife Dr. Bohmke delivered my first-born - she is a beautiful, compassionate doctor as well. My sincere condolences go out to Dr. Bohmke, his daughters and family. I feel blessed to have known him. Thank you for sharing him with me.

I just was informed by a friend that also is patient at NWWHC that Dr Levine died. He took care of me once for an early pregnancy failure and he was the BEST. As a medical provider myself I know he was one of the BEST, what a loss :( His lovely wife, Dr. Bohmke delivered my baby and she also one of the BEST. My condolences.

My daughter just found Dr. Levine's obit - we were both sad to learn of his passing. I remember Dr. Levine as a very caring person. He delivered both my children, one was by C-section - my daughter was breach and in distress. He was always so calm and compassionate during the appointments and delivery. When my son was born he was going back and forth between 3 rooms - three different women in labor at the same time but he never seemed rushed, my epidural kept wearing off so he would have to wait and return after it was re-administered. I was blessed to have had him as my ob during my pregnancies - he was a very kind soul. My condolences to Dr. Bohmke and their daughters, God bless them all. I can relate to their loss, my husband passed away just about 6 months before him - from cancer too. We will always remember you, Dr. Levine.

Dr. Levine was my doctor for both my pregnancies, and my kids are now 10 and 15. Neither pregnancy was easy, lots of high risk, and he got us through it safe and sane. He made a difference in my life and I will forever be grateful he was my doctor. God bless the Levine family.

I was so saddened to hear about Dr. Levine's passing. In 2010 I was on bedrest at Swedish for 6 weeks, and I saw him each week when he was on rotation. He was always kind, listened to my concerns, and provided needed reassurance. He was a gentle soul, and I have never forgotten how he treated me like a person, not just another patient on a list. It's rare to find doctors who really seem to care about their patients. I'm sure he will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege to know him.

I am so sad to discover Dr. Levine's passing. Dr. Levine was a rock in the birth of my daughter and helped me through 2 very challenging pregnancies and other complications. Whenever I saw him, he had such a way of making me feel calm and well taken care of. Thank you for bringing my daughter into this world! I was so saddened when he retired and at a loss for words at his passing. To his family, may you find comfort in knowing what a great person he was and for how many lives he touched! My thoughts and prayers go out to you during this time.

My sincere condolences to the family. I met DR. Levine in in 1988; I was only seventeen and pregnant with my fist-born son. My late husband and I aprreciated that we were treated with the utmost respect (even though, we were just kids).
Dr. Levine was a lovely man, and the best doctor ever!

I was blessed enough to be the recipient of Dr.Levine's concerned and stellar care when I was very ill with a terrible case of mastitis. I knew he was kind and competent when he cared for me during my pregnancy but his careful attention when I was so ill was heartwarming. I will never forget his disbelief when I returned to him to discuss attempting a second pregnancy but he successfully guided us through the experience including nursing the second baby. His genuine compassion will always be remembered.I am so saddened to hear of your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I have been a patient of Dr. Levine since the mid to late 1980's. In all that time there was never an occasion when I have been treated with anything other than exquisite courtesy, competence, great gentleness and warmth and the kind of reassurance that allayed all my fears and concerns. Dr. Levine always received my husband and me with a warm smile and genuine interest in my life beyond the medical issues I brought to his office. I felt understood and never felt hurried. As medicine was changing to an "industry" Dr. Levine practiced the fine art and science of being an excellent physician and healer. With his passing the world has lost an example of what it meant to practice the art of medicine.
Our hearts go out to his loving family and the many patients who will miss him dearly in the years to come. He will always be remembered with gratitude.

I am so sorry for your loss. He was our OB for both of the boys and I am blessed to have had it so. He wanted me to see everyone in the practiceit wasn't to be. So I had the pleasure of having him deliver both of my boys with varying degrees of stress, actually a lot, but with that came his calm and cool demeanor. I am thankful to have had the privilege of having him be a part of the beginnings of the lives of our boys. You will always be remembered.

I am so very saddened to hear of Dr. Levine's death. He was a gifted ob-gyn with a huge heart. He and my husband absolutely adored him and he was incredibly helpful to us both throughout my pregnancy and after the delivery of my son. He will be missed!

I was so sorry to learn of Dr. Levine's passing. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Dr. Bohmke and their family. Dr. Bohmke was my OB during both my pregnancies and Dr. Levine happened to be the on-call doctor during both deliveries. What a truly calm, gentle, and kind man. We feel so lucky to have known him and will remember him always, and will most certainly tell our daughters what an amazing doctor helped bring them into this world.

Rachel Broderhausen

Dr. Levine was such a kind, caring and skilled doctor. I've been Karen Bohmke's patient for 20 years, saw him during both my pregnancies, and am just so sad that the world had to lose such a wonderful husband, father, and doctor so early. I'm sending many prayers and love to Karen and the girls, who I feel like I know after all the stories.

I am so saddened to hear of Dr. Levine's passing. I was new to Seattle and working at Swedish as an OR nurse and looking for an OB. Having had a very negative experience with my first child I decided to call L&D and ask a nurse who she would recommend. Her response was "hands down - Bob Levine". I will be forever grateful for that advice as he exceeded any expectations I had. He had a way to make his patients feel calm and safe in his care. He was a true gift to this world and I feel blessed to have been touched by his greatness. Rest in peace Dr. Levine. Many prayers of strength to the family.

Karen I hope you and the children hold all the memories close for this great person and are comforted by the thoughts of the time you had together.

February 18, 2015

I am so sorry to hear, today, about the passing of Bob Levine. He delivered my daughter 20 years ago when I was told that he is the BEST at getting babies out with forceps and we were spared the emergency C-section. My 20 year old baby just visited NW womens health as she is newly pregnant when we learned this news. He has been an awesome MD and will be greatly missed. Prayers to his family.

I was very sad to find out about Bob Levine's passing this very morning. I had recommended him as the best OB in Seattle, although for me he was the best in the world. He took care of me in both my pregnancies 22 and 19 years ago when I had recently moved to the US from Spain and made it all seem simple. He was caring, understanding and a wonderful listener. He will always be remembered in our family. Paloma Borreguero

My condolences to Dr. Levine's family. He was my OB during all four of my pregnancies and delivered two of my sons. He was always kind, gentle, patient, and professional. The world is a better place because of him. May he live on in your hearts and memories.

February 5, 2015

I am so sad to hear about the passing of Bob Levine. He delivered my son 24 years ago. I consider myself lucky to have had this talented, kind, gentle man for my OB. He and Karen were my favorite doctors and with Karen out on maternity leave I think? I hoped I would deliver on one of Bobs nights. And luck was on my side..... I remember him just hanging out watching TV with my husband and I waiting for my labor to progress. The world will miss this great man.
My daughter is due February 20th and I'm hoping she will be "lucky" and Karen will deliver my granddaughter.
Peace be with you Karen and the girls.

Dear Dr. Bohmke,
Words cannot express the sorrow I feel at the loss of this humble, kind, gentle, funny, and incredibly talented doctor. I felt that he (and you, since you delivered my daughter!) were almost family to us, having guided us through our pregnancies. His love of literature I remember well. I have always bragged to all my friends who would listen what an exceptional man I lucked out with as my doctor. May his memory be a blessing.

This photo says it all-what a man! Compassionate, kind, smart, trustworthy, thoughtful and loving. Times when he came into the hospital on Karen's behalf "She was sleeping so beautifully I didn't want to awaken her". Unruffleable, calm, competent,respectful with endless patience.One of my all time favorite Doc's.
Peace and love to Karen and "the girls"

Dr Levine was a inspiring doctor, passionate for his career. Amazing person with a big heart. I consider myself luck for being one of his patients and I know that God it is with him now and he will continue to look after his patients in some ways. He fought a battle but sometimes we lose even if we try very hard. He will always be remembered .Thanks Dr Levine for inspiring and bring so much love to our family.

Dr. Levine has been my doctor for the past 15 years. He cared for me during my 3 pregnancies and I was lucky enough to have him deliver my 3rd baby, Emma.

Daphne Kelley

Dr. Levine was our OB for both of our children. We were so grateful to have found such a loving, talented and caring doctor. I still remember the day he said 'We're going to have a baby today' when he sent me to the hospital with our first born. We have talked about Dr. Levine with our children, and in keeping with the old Irish prayer on death, we will 'Call me by the old familiar name. Speak of me in the easy way which you always used.' His family is in our prayers.

Karen, Emily and Molly,

words cannot express the sorrow I feel at the loss of Bob. Having worked with him for so many years I know I echo the thoughts of so many: he was a pleasure to work with.He has been and will continue to be greatly missed. He was kind, gentle, an expert and a teacher. If I had a very complicated patient of his it did not matter, because he was the doc and the easiest person to work with. Beyond that he was a friend. The few times I saw Bob outside of work he was just as wonderful.He was so proud of his daughters and he and Karen together were perfect. I continue to pray for all of you for your comfort and peace. Thank-you for sharing such a wonderful man with the rest of us. We were truly blessed. God Bless Bob!

Dr Levine was the perfect combination of skill and compassion for his patients along with support for the nursing staff. He was a pleasure to work with and will be greatly missed. My prayers are with Karen and the girls. I still remember when Molly and Emily were born and what a proud papa he was. He didn't say much, but if I asked about them he would light up and tell me what they were doing. What a devoted father and husband! PS- I still miss the mustache!

I first met Dr. Levine through my own father, also a doctor, almost 30 years ago. From the moment I met him I knew that he was a caring, gracious soul. He helped me through some difficult times and then celebrated with me at the birth of my three children, now almost 21 and twins who are 19.
My husband and I appreciated his kind and gentle manner, his smile, and his sense of humor.
Our condolences to the entire family. Dr. Levine will be sorely missed by many, many people.
My thoughts are with your family.

My fondness memory of Dr. Levine is just after he delivered my son and asking the nurse to reweigh him because Nick came into the work weighing 9lbs. 10oz & 23 1/2 inches long. Because Nick at the time happened to be the biggest baby, Dr.Levine had the pleasure of delivering..... God Speed Dr.Levine....

Dr Levine delivered all three of my babies 02, 04 & 07. I will never forget hearing his surprised voice during my second C-section when he exclaimed.." Wow he's looking at me!" He was the first face my son ever saw. He was the most amazing soul... I may or may not have tried to plan my pregnancies around his family vacations... I couldn't have imagined anyone else bringing my kids into this world. He was so loved and he will be so missed.

We send our prayers of comfort and love to the Levine-Bohmke family. Dr. Levine was a perfect fit for our family: compassionate, calm, and that rare blend of being both meticulously careful and caring. We lost my dad to cancer 6 months after Dr. Levine delivered our third son in 2007. Will he ever know how profoundly powerful his kindness was? I write in the hopes that his children will know how much better our lives have been by having shared those precious OB appts. and delivery room hours with their father. Special hugs to Dr. Bohmke who delivered our first. Om mani padme hom. Strength and comfort to your family,

Dr. Levine was my doctor for the last 13 years and delivered both of my children. He was an amazing doctor and talked fondly of his family and children during my visits. While I only saw him a few times a year, I feel like he was part of our family. During my pregnancies, one of the ways I could drag my husband to my visits was knowing he could have fun banter with Dr. Levine. We are lucky to have had him be a part of the most amazing thing that has ever happened to us, the birth of our chidren. I'm so sad to hear this news and have the deepest sympathies to his family and all that knew him.

Dr. Levine was indeed calm and reassuring during and after the difficult delivery of my second daughter. I will always be grateful for that. My deepest condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues.

Dr. Levine assisted Dr. Bohmke (our doctor) during the birth of our twin boys in 2004. My wife and I felt like we hit the jackpot. We love Dr. Bohmke and immediately knew we were in four exceptionally skilled, kind hands. I so appreciated Dr. Levine's warmth and his humility. I remember thinking, "I'm so glad that Karen's husband is as neat as she is!"

Liffy and I are send our deep condolences to Karen, his daughter, and the rest of their family.

I am so sad to hear about his passing- I met Dr. Levine by chance. He was in the hospital when I was delivering my son at 34 weeks. In a situation that was full of panic, from us not knowing if our son was going to come out needing a vent or be just fine and a float nurse that had no business being in a delivery room with a preemie Dr. Levine brought calm to the room and to me and my fiancee. He treated it like a normal delivery as if nothing was wrong. he will always have a special place in my heart and I could never express how grateful I am for him. He will be missed!!

I feel incredibly blessed to have had Dr. Levine in my life for as long as I did. He was my doctor for over 10 years before I had my son. I could not have asked for a more gentle and kind soul to have been through such a life changing experience with. My husband adored him as well. When getting ready for my C-section I told him I loved him and he started laughing and said "not in front of your husband" - "oh don't worry - he loves you too", I said :) I will always remember his smile and kind words. My heartfelt condolences to his family - my thoughts and prayers are with you.

I'm so sad to hear of the passing of Dr. Levine. While I will always remember how he brought both of my boys into this world what I will never forget is how he handled the pregnancy we lost. His caring and kind nature during that tough time just reaffirmed that I had picked the right man for the job. My heartfelt condolences go out to Dr. Bohmke and their two daughters.

My heart goes out to Karen Bomke (my lovely doctor) and their children. Bob Levine cared for me at the beginning of the birth of one of our children...what a kind doctor he was...and Karen delivered. What a caring partnership. I am grateful for the brief encounter at such an important milestone in my life. I hope peace will bless those who survive him.

My Thoughts and Prayers are with the entire family. The Last time I remember seeing Robert (Bobby) was a long time ago during happier times at family gatherings for the holidays.

I feel so lucky to have had Bob Levine as my doctor--he delivered my daughter Julia and Karen Bomke delivered my son. He had such a warm bedside manner and was a superlative doctor. He will be so sorely missed in this world. Jean Cho

So sad to hear this - he delivered our daughter in 2004 and was amazing. There was a lot going on and he was so calm and reassuring - there's no one else I would have wanted for the job! My condolences to his family.

Dr Levine delivered both of my kids (1/31/13 and 2/10/09). We have many memories associated with him and we are truly sad for his departure. Our thoughts are with his family during this very difficult time. He is at peace now.

Dr. Levine delivered all 3 of our children. From the moment I met him it was clear that he would play an important role in our lives as we began our family. His reassuring advice and gentle voice was just what we needed. I'll always remember him. On December 26th I was out with my son celebrating his 14th birthday... Thank you Dr.Levine for being a part of our lives. You gave us all a gift that will never be forgotten.

I am deeply saddened to hear of Dr. Levine's passing. Dr. Levine helped me through some very difficult pregnancy losses with genuine compassion and warmth. When he delivered my first daughter in 2011, it felt like we were celebrating a victory together. I was more than halfway through my pregnancy with my second daughter when he had to withdraw from practice. I was worried for his health and knew I would miss our appointments together-- his willingness to be available any time I needed reassurance; our talks about everything from books to politics. Dr. Bohmke was coincidentally the doctor who helped with this birth. I couldn't help but admire how she was able to attend to me with such strength and humor and was grateful when she quietly told me that she would tell Dr. Levine about the birth as I held my daughter in my arms. Thank you Dr. Levine and Dr. Bohmke for your work. It is a relief to hear that Dr. Levine received the same excellent care that he made a career of providing to his patients.
