I have been seeing Dr. Bella for several years now as well as several members of my family. He is very kind, listens & he doesn't mind explaining things in "layman's" terms when answering questions etc. Furthermore all staff are extremely nice and helpful as well. I definitely recommend this doctor to all !

Dr. Bella is a wonderful family doctor. He takes his time with you and doesn't try to rush you out. The most I've ever waited was about 15-20 minutes, and that was because he squeezed me in during the day when I called that morning. He doesn't overbook and try to herd people in and out of his office like cattle. During the recent hurricane, he actually made a "house call" (he lives a couple of blocks over) to check on my mother who had been in a car accident the day before. I highly recommend him!
