Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Bellotte is a miracle worker! I'm so grateful to have my vision restored! It's no wonder that he and his gracious staff always seem so happy. The surgery was easy and I can only highly recommend Dr. Bellotte if you need cataract surgery. He truly is the very best! One of the best things I've ever done!

Took the time to go over my exam results and explain the options available to me. The girl who does the surgery scheduling is highly competent, sweet (and nice to look at). Highly recommend this office!

Life-Changing
Dr Bellotte and his team replaces my cloudy natural lenses with new high-tech ones. Surgery was easy to tolerate and recovery time was minimal. My vision - - both distance and reading - - improved dramatically. I can now see the golf ball 150 yards down the fairway, whereas I could not before the procedure. Everything went smoothly and efficiently. I very much recommend Doc B if you have cataracts.

Dr. Bellotte
Gladly sharing a very positive experience with Boca Eye Care. Many tests were done with the newest technology that proved both painless and complete. Every view of the blessed eye one can imagine. The office staff were all professional and caring. The office and all equipment were clean! I choose a Lazer surgery for small cataracts on my eyes. The right eye has had its surgery and it all went well! Happily reporting to all that I was able to be 'out' for the process. My recovery has gone well and I will have the other surgery on my eye this coming week! So please stay posted. I would rate Dr. BELLOTTE 1000

Poor Mangement and results
The office has been contacted 20 timers for a copy of my report after the examination it has been almost two months, it has not been received. I can't even get a copy of the bill I paid for tax purposes. Because I needed to consult with a surgeon and needed the report, I was unable to have the surgery done in 30 days so I would need to pay for the measuring again. I was told at least 3 times an office manager would call me back. So if this doctor does your surgery and there is a problem you would never be able to get any results. The office staff is useless.

Cant measure patients
Can’t measure patience because their equipment is not up to standard. My mom’s in a wheelchair and can hardly move her head forward. The table should slide out towards patients that can’t lean forward. Very upsetting experience! Dr. Bellotte referred me to basken Palmer in pal beach gardens. They cannot lift people from wheelchairs there! They have to be able to move themselves the patient! So the referral was a waste! It’s unbelievable Dr. Bellottes office unable to accommodate all patients! Florida has old people that need help! Healthcare in Florida is pathetic!
