About
Medicine was always a career choice for him, but he made a major pivot along the way. Both his grandfather and father were dentists, and he was prepared to follow that career path, but during his schooling, the teamwork aspect of surgery proved more compelling. "I've been an athlete my whole life, and the operating room felt like a team that's working together on an important goal," he says. "Also, I appreciate seeing a problem and being able to solve it, particularly when those issues are complex. That's what led to head and neck surgery, it offers a variety of benign and malignant pathologies within very delicate anatomical structures."
After graduating from Drexel University's Hahnemann Medical College, Dr. Krevitt did his residency training in general surgery and otolaryngology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and a fellowship in head and neck oncology and endocrine surgery at Montefiore Medical Center. In private practice for 16 years, and then at Cornell for four years, he came to Northwell for the opportunity to have more resources as a clinician, as well as the chance to teach residents and medical students. "Northwell truly values physician input and emphasizes the balance between patient care and physician wellbeing," he says. "When you don't work in a pressure cooker, it's far easier to be collegial and collaborative, and that benefits patients."
Dr. Krevitt’s patients can expect to have a pleasant, enjoyable experience with him. His sense of humor and warm, easygoing personality mixes with compassion and knowledge, making him very approachable, he says. With an aim toward helping patients be an integral part of the decision process, he spends a great deal of time on patient education, so they can become experts on their own conditions. "Mainly, I'm a 'golden rule' guy, where I treat the person in front of me the way I would want to be treated," he says. "Whatever that patient is dealing with, it's important. So, that's how I treat it, too."
