39 Somerstown Road, Ossining, NY 10562

914-815-1561

Dr. Peter Levi, who practices in Mount Kisco, NY and Ossining, NY, is a medical specialist in emergency medicine. He attended Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacy.

"I left my previous doctor hoping I would get the same service except closer to home, but that wasn't the case. I made an appointment with Levi to get a physical, but it was not thorough at all. He didn't check my eyes, ears, throat, nostrils, and did NO auscultation. No urine or blood sample (blood had to be taken elsewhere) were collected either, and he didn't take my height or weight. All he did was ask some intake questions and check my blood pressure as well as give an EKG. He also did this stuff with the DOOR OPEN and I'm pretty sure that's a HIPAA violation. It looks like I'll be going back to my previous doctor despite the distance."

What is Emergency Medicine?

Emergency medicine, as the name implies, refers to the treatment of patients whose illness or injury is an emergency. This usually means the illness or injury is serious and was unexpected. Emergency medicine includes disaster response teams, ambulance personnel such as EMTs and paramedics, and doctors or nurses at an ER.

Emergency medicine specialists are trained to deal with all kinds of different conditions affecting all kinds of different people, as just about any medical condition can become an emergency. An emergency medicine physician might treat patients with:

Trauma from a car accident
Heart attack
Poisoning
Near drowning
Broken bones
Premature labor
Drug overdose
Suicide attempt
Burns
High fever

In a busy emergency room, staff could even potentially see all of these problems in the same day. Emergency medicine specialists work in a fast-paced environment, treating serious health issues. They must make decisions quickly. Because emergency care is the only point of access to health care for many Americans, emergency medicine physicians must also provide screening and referrals as well as treatment.

There are over 120 million ER visits in the United States every year. Emergency medicine is a very important part of the health care system, and the providers routinely save lives.
