Marissa Levine, DO

Cleveland Clinic, 1 Akron General Avenue, Akron, OH 44307, 330-344-8565. Bisalp on 24-year-old redditor, Oct. 2022. Dr. is body-positive and gender-friendly. She did not question, shame, doubt, or impede my decision in any way. And she even accommodated my request for an all female surgical team because of my anxiety as a sexual assault survivor. She listened. She absolutely made everything as easy, smooth, and comfortable both emotionally and physically as humanly possible. And most of all she provided support. She continuously reminded me when I tried to explain why I wanted it the surgery that she didn’t I didn’t have to nor did she need me to justify my decision beyond I don’t want kids. I had the birth control implant in and she made sure to mention that we did not have to remove it and that I did not have to stop taking hormonal birth control if I didn’t want to.
