Short Biography
Dr. Levy was accepted into a joint 7-year BA MD program at CUNY Brooklyn College and SUNY Downstate Medical Center. As an undergrad, he developed an interest in immunology and did research investigating antibodies to Factor VIII. This kindled an interest in immunology, and he went on to pursue a career in Allergy and Immunology. He did his Fellowship in Allergy and Clinical Immunology at Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles, mentored by Dr. Joseph Church and Dr. Warren Richards.
