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.

Great bedside manner
He seems very caring for his patients. He takes his time with you so you don't feel rushed. He explains things in an easy way to understand. I had an issue with my foot for two years post op and he took everything he could do to make it right. Highly recommended.

Doctor's great but
Dr Belis explain things well and have had good luck getting injections and options for a foot that I broke a couple years ago that causes me a lot of pain. But I was trying to get another appointment and so far it's been a week with no call back not sure why. Was happy going here but going to have to try a different doctor I guess.

Excellent treatment
Dr. Belis explained my options in an understandable manner. He was patient and took time to make sure that I was comfortable with the treatment. His treatment plan saved me from further foot surgery and enabled me to become active without pain. I highly recommend him.

I highly recommend Dr. Andrew Belis
I saw Dr. Belis for plantar fasciitis. He was thorough in explaining the condition and suggesting treatment options. He did an x-ray and ultrasound before administering a cortisone injection. At a 2-week follow-up visit, he did one more ultrasound and cortisone injection and the problem is satisfactorily resolved. I highly recommend Dr. Belis for any foot/ankle condition.

Dr. Belis and his staff are great. I’ve seen him for two different treatments and both times he was very good to spend time snd explain everything. The best thing is him and his associates actually listen to what you have to say. I found this not to be the case with all doctors. He did surgery on my ankle and I am very pleased. I have had very little discomfort. I have recommended him to my friends and family.

Dr Belis and his staff have been amazing. I needed extensive foot and ankle surgery in September of 2021. Dr Belis was recommended by a good friend. The surgery went well and the recovery was rapid. The doctor and his saff are A+.

I had some hardware taken out of my big toe by Dr. Belis . He listened to all my questions about what he was going to do. Surgery was scheduled and I was very pleased with the outcome. I would definitely recommend Dr. Belis and Dr. Foote. His staff is very friendly and professional.

I was sent to Dr Andrew Belis for an Independent Medical Exam of my feet. I was impressed by the hour he took with me, the thorough exam including gait observation, and explanations. I am a vascular surgeon and so I know a lot about physician's exams and behaviors. I was very impressed with Dr Belis and his staff and truly appreciate his time to exam, document and explain. I would highly recommend him. Even though he is 1000 miles from my hometown it was well worth the trip to see someone this professional.

Dr. Belis hurt me. He jammed the toe clipper under my toenail, and clipped off 3 large pieces of the nail, and then put a band-aid around the toe. I stopped at the reception desk, and then walked to the elevator, when I felt my flip-flop feeling wet. I looked down and saw a pool of blood. I looked back and saw a trail of blood all the way back to the reception desk, where there was another pool of blood. Sad part is, the office staff was professional and courteous, if only Dr. Belis could be so kind. Since this is his chosen area of specialty, he should have more knowledge and expertise to handle these types of situations better, instead I found him to be very rough. Never going back. I should have read the other reviews before going to see him.

I have had a great experience with Dr. Belis. He repaired my big toe a few years ago and fixed a long term problem for me. He was very polite and explains things very well. That is why I recently went back to him for an ankle issue.

He did surgery on my foot to fuse the big toe joint. My big toe was extremely shortened and I had ball of foot pain. I was told to use shoe inserts and I never had this pain before. After nearly two years of suffering I went to an Orthopedic Surgeon and he removed the surgical hardware that was Dr. Belis placed in my foot. The Orthopedic Surgeon thought he would have to clip my tendon to relax the big toe, but the tendon was stuck under the plate. Now my toe is normal and no ball of foot pain!
