This was a great experience! The staff were kind and courteous. The doctor was professional, considerate, and took his time understanding my issue and explaining his solution to me. I am SO thankful that this doctor accepts my insurance because it is going to save me hundreds of dollars I've been paying out of pocket for in the past. Thank you so much!!

The office was super clean. Dr. Bonte basically gave me an anatomy lesson of the knee and explained in detail what was causing my pain. Then he relived the pain, and we made an ongoing treatment plan together. If you have any kind of pain, you have to go see Dr. Bonte! Before I saw Dr. Bonte I didn't even know what I physiatrist was! I had excruciating knee pain and could barely walk up a flight of stairs. Most of the doctors listed on Zocdoc were knee surgeons, but to me surgery is a last resort. Dr. Bonte carefully examined my knee by touch, by xray, and with an ultrasound. I won't go through all the gruesome details, but I will tell you that I feel amazing already! Instant relief with a prescription for PT. He explained other treatment options we could pursue if this simple option does not do the trick. Also, the office staff was amazing. They sorted out the problem I had been having with my insurance company for a year.
Verified patient
Total package of how a Dr should be, easy to talk to, talks through the procedure so you understand what’s going on with you and helps to withstand the procedure. Never felt rushed or hurried. Also took the time to answer my daughter’s questions to help with the recovery process. Did an excellent job!
Verified patient
From my initial contact, which was with Liza, I felt welcomed and at ease. Liza was very accommodating, thorough, efficient and a pleasure to interact with. This was the exact same with Dr.Bonte. I usually read reviews before deciding on a provider and will become dissuaded if I see any negative reviews (of course that's not fair or realistic as you can't please everyone). However I did not find any negative comments regarding Dr.Bonte and this will NOT be one either. He was attentive, appeared genuinely interested in my issue, asked relevant questions, and provided preliminary assessments after a brief physical which turned out to be inline with the ultrasound results (small tear in shoulder muscle). He explained everything he was doing, provided alternative treatment options and prepped me appropriately along the way. Great doctor!! I wish there were more like him. Before I even left the office I was feeling 90% better!
Verified patient
This was an awesome experience given the context. Doctor is knowledgable. Staff are friendly. Would highly recommend. He even took me earlier than the booked appointment.

All good
Verified patient
I had such a great experience with Dr. Bonte! When I initially made the appt I was told “he won’t let you leave in pain”. And that statement was very accurate. I went in with really bad neck pain. After a thorough exam, he explained a few different options. I picked one and he proceeded with injections within minutes. It has only been a few hours, but I’m already feeling some relief. I would highly recommend Dr. Bonte to anyone seeking pain management. He is intelligent, kind, and clearly cares about his patients. Thank you Dr. Bonte!!

Verified patient
Dr. Bonte was able to see me a little early and seemed genuinely interested in discussing my current injury as well as my history of injuries. It felt like we were working together to figure out the best treatment for me.
Such a nice experience. Super clean and nice office, lovely receptionist, Doctor listened to my issues and came up with so many ways to help and step by step as to what we should do. It was a breath of fresh air and I'm excited to start my treatments. You won't be disappointed coming here!
Dr. Bonte is the real deal. He listened to my never-ending narrative regarding past experiences, what worked, what hasn't, so on and so fourth. He was thorough in his questioning and in his explanations. He gave me multiple options for my lower back pain, and was actually able to do conduct a pain relief procedure, same day. He really took the time to understand what I was going through, and came up with a plan of action. The office is very hip! Very clean, and receptionist was especially friendly. I will be back (in the best way possible)!
Verified patient
Dr. Bonte took his time with me, was professional, accurate and listened thoroughly as he went through my concerns. Not many docs like this anymore. I felt like he really cared. Office is very "Zen" like, warm, relaxing and inviting. It was great to see that the Purchase/Harrison/Portchester area now has a Pain Management Doctor. After struggling with chronic headaches my whole life, seeing him was a life changer for me. From making the initial appointment to leaving after being seen, Doc and staff treatment was friendly and professional, top notch care.
Dr. Bonte took the time to listen to my pain issues. He was understanding, and took care of my issues. Definitely return for further treatment if needed.
Dr. Bonte is terrific. I was experiencing some back and neck pain following a skiing injury, beyond the care of my general providers. I was referred to Dr. Bonte by my GP and can see why. I barely waited to be helped when I checked in and the staff and Dr. Bonte were all very friendly and helpful. I especially loved how Dr. Bonte really took his time to explain my conditions as well as my treatment options. I received trigger point injections that day and was back on the slope in a week. I had a great visit and Dr. Bonte's demeanor has really put me at ease so I highly recommend this clinic.
Dr. Bonte was very knowledgeable and able to provide me with a customized plan for managing my pain. I was impressed by the facility and equipment too.
Dr. Bonte is excellent. Really patient, thorough, and caring - when I was having persistent knee pain he was able to diagnose what the issue was and get it fixed. Not only that, he took the time to explain why it may have happened and what I could do to prevent a recurrence (and it hasn't popped up since!) Highly recommend.
Dr. Bonte is extremely knowledgeable on modern health practices and always interested in learning more about ways to provide the highest level of care. The compassion and attentiveness he shows his patients is evident as soon as you step into the office. I appreciate the clear and concise language he uses to satisfy all of my concerns. Dr. Bonte treats your recovery as a team sport - you're in it together to find the best path towards recovery, helping me feel actively involved in my treatment. Highly recommend.
I've been a patient of Dr. Bonte's ~3 years. I trust him without qualification, and will continue to rely on him for my future needs.
Verified patient

To say that Dr. Bonte is amazing. He took the time to listen to my issue and explained to me what he thought was going on. I'm going in for a follow-up this week, where he's going to explain the MRI results. It's great to go to a doctor that listens and sees me, not just assume and make hurtful comments. If I could rate him a 10, I totally would..
