Dr Belmonte performed an invasive surgery on me without numbing me in any way. Every doctor I've asked after having this surgery done to me has said they would have numbed the area with local anesthesia first. She cut into me with a scalpel and ignored me wailing in pain. I asked before the procedure if I could be numbed and she said that's not how it's done, which by every account, is a lie. I asked if I could have a moment to think about it beforehand, she declined. This woman is cruel and in no way cares about her patients. Please, spare your wellbeing and don't see this doctor. I could cry just thinking about this experience. I don't understand how this was allowed to happen. And to top it all off, the surgery was ineffective. read more

Only left a star so I could write a review of this doctor who completely bullied me in my 1st and last appointment with her. I have never left an appointment so upset and uncomfortable with a provider's care...or I should say lack of care. The WORST experience ever. I'm not understanding why her rude, condescending behavior is tolerated by this practice read more

I have never felt so judged and uncomfortable at an appointment. I discussed weight gain I have had since starting birth control. She told me I was wrong and that hormonal birth control doesn't cause weight gain (which is false). Then proceeded to make me tell her everything I eat in a day and said something negative about every food I stated (including salads because I put feta cheese on my salads). After all of the negative comments she made seemly fat-shaming me, I told her I was feeling uncomfortable and teared up. She then said "I don't know what you expected to hear." I expect my doctor to be empathetic when I am discussing vulnerable things and validate how I'm feeling and give reasonable suggestions. During my assessment, she gave me the worst breast assessment I have ever received. I have very palpable lumps and she did not even notice them. Also, she saw a patch or eczema on my groin and laughed at it. Then she told me you need to get that under control. read more

Cold gyno. Makes you feel judged when you're there asking for help looking for advice. She asked me what I thought my options were, and then mentioned "well, I don't know much about one of them" -- that's when I knew I needed another Doctor. Do not just go with first available, or it will end up costing you more time in the long run. read more

I saw Dr. Belmonte in spring of 2021 because I was having a long and extremely heavy period (almost over the threshold where they tell you to go to the ER) with unusual cramps, and Dr. Wise couldn't get me in for several weeks. There is a reason Dr. Belmonte's calendar was so open. I was pretty sure my IUD had become displaced because the strings had moved before, and I had sudden heavy bleeding and sharp cramps after having regular light periods for a year. I also have a history of ovarian cysts, so anything out of the ordinary sounds the alarm bells to me. Dr. Belmonte told me that one irregular period isn't cause for concern and refused to order an ultrasound. She told me, "your IUD wouldn't become displaced over a year after you got it." (Haha, WRONG.) The next month I returned to Dr. Belmonte with the same problems and was sent home because "that's just how it is now" and "there's nothing we can do." She again refused an ultrasound. When I finally went back for my annual in the fall with Dr. Wise, she was very concerned about my complaints and ordered an ultrasound and sure enough, my IUD was out of place and in my cervix. Dr. Belmonte could have solved this with a simple ultrasound but she refused and gaslit me into thinking everything was fine, and instead I had 2-3 week long periods, ineffective birth control, and cramping for MONTHS. If you can wait to see Dr. Wise instead, please do it! If it's an emergency then DEFINITELY see someone else because Dr. Belmonte will just tell you that there is nothing wrong. read more

I've referred this doctor to at least 10 of my friends and should probably stop telling everyone because it's impossible to get an appointment these days. I'm guessing yelping about her isn't going to help the situation, but we all know a good doctor is hard to find... Going to the gynecologist can be an uncomfortable experience for all of us. However, Dr Belmonte's warm and casual bedside manner takes away most of the awkwardness. She is very easy to talk to and always reminds me that I can ask her anything without feeling embarrassed. I can imagine it would be hard to stun her based on what she deals with on a daily basis. read more

I went to see this doctor 3.23. I went in for extremely painful periods. I have broken several bones and have found my periods to be viciously more painful. When I booked the appointment, I asked if they could provide a solution beyond birth control and NSAIDs and they said yes. This is not the case. All she did was put me back on birth control (which I told her I have already tried repeatedly and was not effective at all in my case). My mom has endometriosis and I believe I have it as well, yet she was entirely dismissive that I might have it as well. I felt so disheartened and unheard and unseen. It's quite disappointing in this day and age all they can do is push another pill whether it be birth control or NSAIDs. read more

I had a very difficult breech pregnancy with complications and Dr. Belmonte was absolutely amazing! I've been going to her for years and have gotten a few of my friends to switch over to her after they had bad experiences with their old OB/GYNs. Dr. Belmonte has always been a good communicator and listener at all of my appointments. She has a great sense of humor...which really helped to calm my husband and I down when she was pretty much sitting on top of me while putting her full force into trying to manually flip my baby while it was still in my womb during an external cephalic version during my last trimester. (Don't worry...I had an epidural for the procedure so I didn't feel a thing!). I wound up in the ER a few days before giving birth and luckily she was the OB/GYNY on call that night! She was able to get my c-section moved up because of the complications and really worked hard to help relieve me of the pain I was in (torn muscles between my ribs due to a respiratory infection and the baby crushing my lungs). I was really pleased with everything she did while I was in the hospital that week. Even if we move out to the burbs I'd still drive downtown to see her because I really trust her and feel comfortable with her. read more

Regina Belmonte, MD - Dr. Belmonte after delivering our daughter - Obstetricians & Gynecologists Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I'm honestly shocked by any bad reviews of Dr. Belmonte... I've been seeing her for about 15 years now (and drive in from the suburbs rain or shine bc I love her so much) and every single experience with that office's staff and Dr. Belmonte have been great. I saw some horrible gynecologists at Lutheran General and feel extremely lucky to have found Dr. Belmonte. I had been suffering horribly from endometriosis and ovarian cysts and this woman seriously changed my life. I always feel comfortable, she makes time for you to talk and ask questions during the appointment, she takes the time to discuss options and set up a treatment plan. I have never felt rushed. She always returns calls in a timely manner. No issues whatsoever and I highly recommend her. read more

Dr. Regina Belmonte left me scarred and terrified of visiting a woman's clinic, as going to Northwestern Women's Clinic was my first time going a doctor that wasn't my hometown doctor. The front desk staff was accommodating and friendly. As being my initial experience I felt as if it was a judgement free and comfortable place to be. Although, once they called me back it was down hill. They were harshly unfriendly to me, and responded to me with cold responses. I began to be very uncomfortable in Dr. Reginas office when she was questioning me about personal and family health history. She was rude and pushy, making no effort to make me feel understood or comfortable. Once I told her I had taken plan B I could feel the judgement. As I was bleeding uncontrollably, and thought I might have had fibroids, she decided to do a pap smear even though I recently had one (within the past year) done by my own doctor who told me that pap smear shouldn't be done while you're bleeding. However she decided it was necessary. Without warning she shoved the metal equipment into me scolding me about how "Plan B isn't a Plan A" even though I've been trying out different birth controls to find my fit. I felt so violated that I began to cry and she dug her hand into my stomach telling me to "relax." This was truly the most horrifying medical experience I've ever encountered. I wish I would've just walked out after there was clear mistreatment while she was collecting my information. Also, she didn't even mention any way I could even receive the results of the pap smear but I'd assume their portal. My last impression of her disgusting unfriendliness was me saying, "thanks, have a good day" she responded with "go right and go right again to get out of here." Please any female who is seeking respectful and judgement free care, AVOID DR. REGINA AT ALL COSTS. Or if she's your only option, I hope you have the courage to stand up for yourself, unlike me who froze in the moment and kept being polite because I was terrified. read more

No bed side manor for being a factor. She also does not get back to you regards refills. Ridiculous. If you're reading this, can you please respond to patients regarding their prescriptions? read more

Is it weird to follow up a review of a frozen yogurt place with a review of a gynecologist? I suppose it's no weirder than stopping to get said frozen yogurt on the way home from said gynecologist's office. So there. I'll keep the review brief, because I think I've already revealed too much personal info. I've been seeing Dr. Belmonte for 6 years now, and she's awesome. Very friendly and personable, very gentle "down there," and fast- the actual exam is over in 10 minutes. Visiting the gyno is an unfortunate side effect of owning a vagina, but she makes the visit. . . pleasant isn't the right word. . . I'll go with "bearable." Also, the office is located in the Playboy building, which makes for endless ironic humor. read more

I just came back from an appointment with Dr. Belmonte which I made based on the recommendations from Yelp. I found her to be not very nice, rushed, and actually made things more uncomfortable than they had to be. I probably would not go back although I am sure she is good doctor. Update: I returned to Dr. Belmonte for my yearly check-up even though I was not happy last year because I could not get another appointment elsewhere. I will not be returning. My experience was nothing short of awful. I won't go into the less than pleasant details, but lets just say it was very painful and the total lack of sympathy I received was frightening. read more

I think she is absolutely great... even if her office scares the hell out of me because I don't EVER want kids and there are pregnant women and kiddies all over! DON'T drink the water there if you don't want to get up the stick! That being said, I found her great! She found a method of birth control that I didn't know about that saved me the hassle of trying to pay for my tubes being cut or an IUD. I found her funny, knowledgeable, and patient. Highly recommended- even for us "child free" types. ;) read more

I went to see Dr. Belmonte on recommendation from my friend- Regina is a friend of her family. Unfortunately, after one visit I quickly found myself a new gyno. Her bedside manner was awful. She was judgmental and cold (not something a patient wants from any doctor, especially a gyno). On top of that, it turns out she diagnosed me incorrectly as well. As a previous patient and a medical professional, I would advise you to see someone else. My new gyno is amazing! She is always nice, patient, never judgmental, and is accurate in her diagnosis. read more

I can see how some people have said that she is rude and/or rushed, but the way I see it is that she is straight to the point. She doesn't beat around the bush. She tells you like it is, but she does have a little humor, and it's not hard to get her to crack a smile. She is very knowledgeable, and can be very warm at times. Unfortunately, I was being charged nearly $400 every two weeks for insurance at work so we ended up having to drop the insurance and we had to go elsewhere, but Dr. B was really great while we were seeing her. read more

I've been going to Dr. Belmonte since 2000 (at least). She delivered my 1st child and she has been awesome the entire time I've been a patient. Just like Andrea R., it is hard to get an appt but it's well worth the trip. I've been to Dr. with my son & they rush you through the exam. Dr. Belmonte takes her time & answers all the questions you can think of. She's the best. I was referred to her by my god mother who works at Northwestern & I've been satisfied from day one. Dr. Belmonte you're the best! ~M read more

Dr. Belmont's delivered my 2 kids and I couldn't be happier! Actually I drove from the suburbs just to deliver my daughter at Northwestern! The best! read more

I am usually a patient of Dr. Wise but I had an emergency and had to see Dr. Belmonte instead. Let me start by saying I hate small talk and would not judge a doctor based on their social skills, however Dr. Belmonte lacked very basic social awareness and empathy which leaves me questioning why she chose to go into this field at all. I am a married adult woman and this doctor left me feeling like an idiot emotional teen. I went to see the doctor because I was pregnant and thought I might be having a miscarriage or in more appropriate terms a chemical pregnancy. The front desk did not ask if I was okay, they simply asked my name and said go give a urine sample, without telling me where to find a container or where to leave it. Then after asking where I needed to go a nurse took me to an exam room again not seeming to care at all about how I felt even though I was crying. I explained that I was pregnant and was bleeding, after which she proceeded to ask if a doctor had confirmed that I was pregnant making me feel like a complete idiot. As soon as I took four pregnancy tests a week prior which were all positive I called them to ask for an appointment and they said that I didn't need to go in until 10 weeks. After about a 15 minute wait in the exam room the doctor showed up did not ask how I was feeling again having obviously noticed my tears. She proceeded to tell me that my pregnancy test was very faintly positive which to me seemed like she was not taking me seriously even though I mentioned I had 4 other positive test and a period which was over two weeks late something that had never happened to me before. She then proceeded to examine me and said "I see a lot of blood, you will probably get your period." She did not give me an ultrasound even though I was 6 weeks which seemed odd. She did not ask if I had ever had a miscarriage or chemical pregnancy before which is super important if recurring. She then told me to get dressed and go get a blood test she did not explain why. While a nurse was drawing blood the doctor sat nearby to take notes, this is when I had to ask her if I was having a miscarriage and why the blood work was required. She replied by saying that what I was most likely experiencing was a chemical pregnancy, it was shocking to me that I had to basically ask her for a diagnosis. Then she just left and told me to come back for more blood work in a few days, that is all, no "feel better, it call me if..." What I experienced in the next 24 hours was not my period like I was told. I was in extreme pain and my body was expelling tissue and blood clots which I was completely unprepared for as Dr. Belmonte did not tell me what to expect. This was my first pregnancy ever and I was very sad to have had a miscarriage this experience is extremely unpleasant itself and Dr. Belmonte made it a million times worse. read more

I am shocked at how much you all like Dr. Belmonte. I went to her becasue my sister sees a male Dr. in the practice and she met Dr. Belmonte and thought I would like her. I had to switch Drs because she belittled my concerns and rushed me through my appt. because I was asking too many questions about something that SHE didn't think I needed to worry about. There was eye-rolling and sighing. Really! Not my kind of bedside manner. I switched because if I get pregnant she is not someone I want to see during a potentially stressful time in my life. read more

I really like Dr. Belmonte. She is warm and funny, which is a nice change from a lot of the doctors I've seen in the past. Her exams are efficient so your time isn't wasted, but she definitely will take the time to sit down with you and discuss any concerns that you're having with your gynecological health. read more

Horrible. Tried to set up an emergency appointment before the holidays... understand they want to go home but were very short on their answers and didn't seem to care. The conversation lasted less than 2 minutes. And once we informed them we didn't have insurance, they just cut us off and wouldn't let us speak any further. I was appalled at how we were treated... absolutely would never recommend them to anyone! read more

I had a terrible experience at Dr. Belmonte's office. I went to Dr. Belmonte as a new patient for an annual check up and to inquire about the IUD. As she was doing the regular pelvic exam , she said she was also going to measure my uterus to see if I could get an IUD in the future. When she did this it was so painful that I nearly passed out and vomited. She had me schedule an ultrasound for 2 days later to see what was wrong. The next day I was hunched over in so much pain that I called Dr.Belmonte's office to see if I could come in. The nurse I talked to was very rude and insensitive. She said, "Dr.Belmonte doesn't think there's anything wrong with you and if are really in pain, go to the ER". At this point, I was confused. If Dr. Belmonte says I'm fine, why am I coming in for an ultrasound and why am I in so much pain?! After the ultrasound, Dr. Belmonte said she didn't see anything in the ultrasound and I was fine. She said she couldn't explain why I was in pain and that I am probably just coming down with something. She was very rude and dismissive. Still in pain, I went to another doctor for another ultrasound and second opinion. Turns out I have fibroid tumors and doctor Belmonte either hit one or possibly put a hole in my uterus when "measuring". I get it, mistakes happen. However, when a patient is in pain, you should treat them with respect and sensitivity ESPECIALLY when talking about something as private as their uterus. Dr.Belmonte and her nurse should re-evaluate their bedside manor practices. I absolutely will never go back to Dr.Belmonte and I would not recommend her for anything. read more

I was referred to Dr. Belmonte by my sister. She was very nice and allowed time for questions. I can see people wanting her to be more warm and fuzzy, but she is a doctor and from what I've heard an excellent one, so that's the most important thing. I found nothing wrong with her bedside manner. Very kind and professional. read more

I am fairly new to Chicago and I've had a difficult time finding a gynocologist. I made my appointment 2 weeks prior to the set time, and was given both the address to the office as well as the address to the parking garage. The woman on the phone told me the parking garage was on West Erie instead of East Erie. Being new to the city, it didn't occur to me that this didn't make sense unitl I was in the middle of downtown Chicago. I called the office five minutes before my appointment time to get clarification and to tell them I'd be a few minutes late. I found the parking garage, the spaces are TINY, so it took me a few minutes to get a spot. After running from the garage to the office, and getting to the 12th floor, I was 15 minutes late. I explained to the receptionist and apologized profusely. She told me it was fine and got me all checked in. I sat down in the lobby and waited for approximately ten minutes before the receptionist called me back and tild me that the doctore refused to see me, since I was "over 20 minutes late". The poor receptionist kept apologizing and told me she told her I was there earlier, but she was going through the check in process with me. So after being given the wrong address, and treated so poorly as a brand new patient, to add insult to injury, I still had to pay $14 to park int he garage! Very unsympathetinc and extremely rude! read more

I was looking to establish an OB in the city and Dr. Belmonte has been a wonderful fit for me. She helped me to make informed decisions pertaining to my health. During my initial visit, she took me to her office where I felt very comfortable to discuss my medical history and get to know her outside of the exam room. Following my visit, I felt it noteworthy that Dr. Belmonte called me personally, rather than a nurse or technician, to discuss my first visit and answer any additional questions. Highly recommend!! read more

When I first started seeing Dr. Belmonte a few years ago, she did not really impress me. At our initial appointment she seemed almost bored and distant while asking me my health background. Her bedside manner was definitely not impressive on that particular day. However, at that point I was only seeing her for my yearly exam and w/ all going on in life at the time (was a full-time student/worker)...I really didn't have the time or energy to look for another GYN. So...I kept going back. Overall, I think Dr. Belmonte and her staff are professional and caring. If you're looking for a bubbly, extremely friendly doctor...she may not be for you. But she's never given me any reason to question her as an expert in her field. I'm in the midst of having my first child, w/ a very complicated and stressful personal life. Dr. Belmonte has been WONDERFUL w/ her kindness and consideration for my situation. In hindsight, I can see why some of her reviews are poor on here...however when looking for a doctor ask yourself whether or not you're looking for a friend or someone who knows what they're doing? Yes, her bedside manner could be improved a bit, but overall she's really changed my mind about seeing her. I think she and her staff are worth a shot...and if you had a bad experience once...even a second shot. Regarding parking...yes, its expensive to park in the garages, but you can park on the street for a couple hours for like $5 I think. read more

my first and only Doctor, she is very professional but understands everything you explain or are concerned about. She's very relaxed and talks to you in a manner that helps you understand completely. I don't feel uncomfortable talking to her about things that are very private. read more

Dr Belmonte delivered by first baby in 2005 and I am now seeing her during my 2nd pregnancy. I think she is fantastic and is always open and available to answer any questions. I've never felt rushed and I've recommended her to many of my friends. She makes the necessary unpleasantries not so unpleasant. If you aren't happy with your current OB/GYN, switch to Dr Belmonte. You'll be pleasanty surprised. read more

I see Dr Roth for 12 yrs and she was my doctor during my pregnancy absolutely fantastic and I love all the Drs at Northwestern Women's Health Associates except Dr. Belmonte. Early in my pregnancy I thought I was having a miscarriage and called on call doctor on a Sunday. She seemed very annoyed (I know it's a Sunday but it's obviously important). I told her the problem and she said that it sounded like a miscarriage and if it was there wasn't anything they could do at that point (7-8 wks). I should call on Monday and get an ultrasound. If I didn't love Dr. Roth so much I would never have set foot in that Drs office again. During our one pre-natal appt with her I found her very rude. We were scheduled for an ultrasound that day and when Dr. Belmonte came in she simply said it had been cancelled slightly angering my husband who had skipped work and been waiting an hour plus to see the ultrasound. Without saying anything else she measured my belly, took the fetal heart rate, said I was fine and left. The ultrasound mixup was not her fault but it wasn't a particularly professional way to deal with the situation. She was on call the weekend I was due but thankfully my son was late and Dr. Feldstein delivered him... and did a very good job with a 10lb, 1oz natural delivery. read more

I love Dr. Belmonte! I started going to her office when I was pregnant with my second child. I have had at least 15+ appointments with Dr. Belmonte and I have NEVER felt rushed. She ALWAYS asks me several times throughout the appointment if I have any questions or concerns. Any questions or concerns I have brought up during the appointment have always been addressed in a caring and competent manner. In fact, she is the only doctor to date that seems concerned with the very young age at which my mother died of breast cancer. Even when I haven't seen her for over a year she brings up the issue herself with questions about what I am doing to mitigate the risks. Since she is my OB/GYN it makes me feel better that she is paying special attention to a cancer risk during my check-ups. During my second pregnancy my daughter was in the breach position. Before going to the hospital for the procedure to put the baby in the proper fetal position I did research about the procedure on babycenter.com. The doctor in the article warned that the procedures take at least a half an hour and are painful. Dr. Belmonte had the procedure done in 5-10 minutes with very little discomfort to me. Dr. Belmonte was also present for my delivery which went as smoothly as these things can possibly go. I felt confident and in good hands during the delivery. My daughter is now a healthy 3 year old and I am forever appreciative to Dr. Belmonte and the hospital staff at Northwestern. read more

This doctor was the most unprofessional, and generally uncaring doctor I've ever been treated by, to date. Not only was the examination brisk, but it was painful. She lacked the TLC that one looks for in a GYN, and seemed to rush through the visit without much concern to the problems I was experiencing or reasons I came to see her. Do not waste your time. There are plenty of other doctors in Chicago who are willing to take the time for their patient's needs. read more

Not going back. Dr. Belmonte is short and dare I say just plain rude. I went in for a check up, scheduling was easy enough but now I see why she has so much availability. No bedside manner to speak of. She ran test and then left the room. I was to pick up the results in a little area where the nurses hang out. (Okay) All she said was to pick up a prescription at the pharmacy. A prescription for what!!!!!! No mention of what the issue was, I had to ask. What doctor does that? There are plenty of doctors with better bedside manner. I won't be going back. read more

I absolutely cannot say enough good things about Dr. Belmonte and her staff at Northwestern Women's Health. I've been going there for years and I adore the whole team. My appointments are always on time, even when late in the day, and their staff is easy to reach over the phone and return phone calls promptly. Dr. Belmonte is straight forward and to the point, but also very kind and funny, and always takes the time to sit and talk with me about any questions I have and explain everything to me. I don't think I'll ever leave this practice as long as I'm in state. read more

I just moved to Boston while my partner attends business school, and it's time for my annual exam (TMI?). I wish I could just fly back home and go to Dr. Belmonte, but I doubt my insurance would cover that. Anyway, I've been a patient of Dr. Belmonte's since 2006, and it never occurred to me to write a yelp review. I started seeing her upon my mother's recommendation (who chose her because she is a Loyola grad and I was a Loyola student at the time...), and after my first visit I wasn't very impressed with her bedside manner. The reality is, she's a great doctor, and her schedule reflects such. Expect to wait, as with any doctor visit I've ever had in my life, but you're in GREAT hands. Dr. Belmonte is the doctor you want on your side when things aren't normal. So, if you've only ever been in for a normal check-up, it may seem she's being short with you, but really she's just taking care of business. When I had abnormal results in 2009, she called me personally, made a follow-up appointment with me, talked to me on the phone for as long as I needed, and made sure every question I had was answered. In that regard, she is pretty amazing at being the calm voice of reason and expertise. Being on an every 3 months/every 6 months care plan, and then finally making it back to once a year, I really appreciated Dr. Belmonte's directness and professionalism, and when appropriate, sense of humor. And when I found out I was moving to Boston and made an appointment the week before I left "just-to-be-safe" (despite only being six months since my last annual and being on an annual care plan for multiple years), Dr. Belmonte assured me I would be fine, and still answered all my questions and address my (irrational) concerns. Block off plenty of time for your appointment, know any questions you may have beforehand (doctors aren't psychic), and you'll probably be lucky enough to find a metered parking spot within a block or two. I really don't want to have to go anywhere else, and will be back to Dr. Belmonte's office as soon as I move back to Chicago. read more

I'm surprised by the few negative reviews. I had to go to Dr. Belmonte for an annual exam when my regular doctor, Dr. Abbie Roth, had absolutely no appointments for months. I liked her. She was definitely efficient and a tiny bit brisk, but I didn't find her rude at all. I had lots of questions and she answered them all. her exam was quick and not rough. I thought she was good and if I couldn't see Dr. Roth again, I'd go back to her. read more

I love Dr. Belmonte. I have been going to her since 2006! She rocks!!! She is straight to the point, I love that about her. When I leave her office after seeing her I always feel great, like a just left a good friends house or something! read more

I have been going to Dr. Belmonte for three years now. She is incredibly kind and a great listener. I usually have to call about 6 weeks before in order to get an appointment. However, Dr. Belmonte has always been great about extending my birth control if I am running behind on an appointment. I feel very comfortable around Dr. Belmonte, and I highly recommend her as a gynecologist. read more

I really enjoy Dr. Belmonte. I've seen her a couple times over the past 2 years & I find her very charming. She gets straight to the point, and gets me in & out. If youre worried about her bedside manner, don't be. I might be different in this area, but I dont need a physician to hold my hand, I want them to fix me if something is wrong, and I know Dr. Belmonte is just that. Also, she has an amazing laugh :) read more
