Blue Harbor Dermatology

Great doctor treated my husband and myself and actually calls you with results unlike our last Dr. Thanks! On time and great staff.

I’ve been struggling with acne since I was 12 and have little to no success with getting it under control. I visited Dr. Belasco and he helped me in a timely manner and got me on skin care products that have cleared up my skin almost completely. I couldn’t be more excited. Dr. Belasco clearly cares for each and every patient as he goes above and beyond and out of his way to make sure every need is met. I highly recommend him.

First time at Dr. Belasco’s office today. Wonderful office! Easy to book and great parking.
Dr Belasco knows his stuff. I will recommend him to all my family and friends for any of their dermatological needs or concerns.
FIVE STAR!

I was referred to Dr. Belasco from a friend of mine. I have not been to a Dermatologist that I liked out in California for quite some time. The staff was very nice, helpful and answered all questions that I had. It was such a great experience and I will be back. I am really happy I was able to find someone that I like!

I have dealt with acne from early teens into my adult life. I have been to numerous dermatologists in Orange County and have received various prescriptions of antiobiotics and topicals as well as recommendations for over the counter topicals. I I have even bought other doctors skin care lines they were selling in office hoping to see amazing results. Nothing has made a difference in my skin’s appearance until now, when I found Blue Harbor dermatology with Dr. Belasco by using Unilocal to narrow down my search for a new dermatologist.
Taking time out of my busy workday is always a challenge and I wanted to get in before the holidays. Fortunately, I was able to get an apt on the day I had suggested and arrived 10 min early to fill out paperwork and was able to get into see the dr on time! In the past I had to wait sometimes up to 45 min for my appointments but Dr. Belasco’s friendly staff was able to get me in right away. Once I we started the consultation, I didn’t feel rushed at all the Dr was able to give me the attention and time to understand my needs and my background history of acne. Upon leaving my 2 prescriptions were sent to a specialty pharmacy which sends them to my house within 24 – 48 hrs AND… on top of that… I only had to pay $ 10 for each of these branded products for acne! How can you beat that service!
Everyone who works there was very welcoming and Blue Harbor Dermatology is a beautiful spa like office with modern décor. I felt relaxed and cared for the entire time. The whole office experience was first class from the minute I made the apt over the phone to leaving the office. If you are looking for a new dermatologist that will not only take the time needed to treat your everyskincare need but also extremely knowledgeable then I absolutey recommend Dr. Belasco and I can’t wait for my follow up apt!

I had my first appointment with Dr. Belasco last week and couldn’t of had a better experience. He was so attentive to every problem I had and explained each issue so I knew exactly what was happening. I would highly suggest the doctor to anyone I know. My mom is actually seeing him in two weeks!
His office staff was also so polite and was very accommodating to my time schedule and helped get my prescriptions filled for a much lower cost then I was quoted by my pharmacy.

Dr Belasco was super nice and helpful! I got right in for my appointment (I did the check in paperwork all online) and he really cared about my situation. He prescribed a few different products and I called in and within 10 minutes I was all set with a delivery. Great customer service also! Definitely would recommend.

I went in with a rash, suggested it may be tinea from being at the gym. At the time the spots were only covering about a 10 by 10 inch area. Dr Belasco didn’t examine me. He walked in holding my form, and announced based on the form that it was hives. I tried to get him to look by lifting my shirt to show my stomach and he looked for about 10 second before saying it was tinea. He suggested heavy duty medication for my ‘hives’ which I refused. I have never had hives from anything except antibiotics. It is a week later now, and I went to a different dermatologist. She examined my skin closely and then took a scraping and put it under a microscope. She said it is tinea versicolor. After a week of hoping Dr Belasco was correct about it being hives, I now have a rash from the center of my breasts all the way to my groin and down my back and sides. Why did he go to medical school just to make random guesses? I am furious and very uncomfortable, and the rash also has spread to my boyfriend now since Dr Belasco told me it was hives and it wasn’t contagious. What the hell. DO NOT go to this doctor. Misdiagnosis can really cause problems.

The office is clean. The service is awesome! You are seen on time and out in a timely manner. Dr. Kevin Belasco is very help and he educates you on what is going on. He admits he loves to treat rashes and that he is first medical doctor then cosmetic. I found him going through reviews. I wanted to make sure he was going to treat me and not sell me stuff and cosmetic procedures. He did a great job. After two weeks of meds and topical creams my contact dermatitis is now gone. My primary doctor always said it was eczema. I highly recommend him. I’m very happy with my results!!!

I had a nice experience with Dr. Belasco and Blue Harbor Dermatology. I was able to book my appointment through ZocDoc, which was very convenient for me. I filled out my check-​in papers online, and when I arrived for my appointment, they were printed out for me and all I had to do was sign. I didn’t have to wait long before being called into the exam room. I came in to have a mole removed and the procedure was performed quickly and efficiently, and I was back to work in the afternoon. Dr. Belasco is very nice and his staff friendly as well. I highly recommend.

The doctor was very nice and took time to listen to my concerns. He explained everything well and is a nice man. I will be back…

The Unilocal reviews are true, Dr. Belasco and his staff are amazing. It was my first time visiting a dermatologist for my keloid. Honestly, I was expecting to spend a good chunk of my afternoon there. Filling out endless amounts of paperwork, answering a hundred for more questions. However, I was in and out of the office very quick. Dr. Belasco was very friendly he explained to me in great detail how he was going to treat my keloid. And I also was impressed by his staff, they were very friendly and patient with me (I was asking a lot of questions)
To anyone that is looking for a great dermatologist, make an appointment with Dr. Belasco! You will not be disappointed.

I have seen Dr. Belasco on a couple of occasions now and have been very happy with each visit. His staff is competent, friendly, and efficient. Dr. Belasco has, at all times, been very professional, honest, and very easy to communicate with during each visit. Booking a visit is easy and the waiting area and exam rooms are always well-​maintained and clean.
Dr. Belasco clearly knows what he is doing and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs to see a dermatologist.

Even though Dr. Belasco’s clinic is much further than I prefer to trek for a dermatology visit, it’s worth every mile! I have dry sensitive skin and some veins on my face but after a few visits, I have noticed significant improvements to skin’s overall appearance and texture. The staff is very friendly and accommodating with my schedule and I have had no problems with this clinic. Many other dermatologists I’ve seen seem to want to usher me out quickly so they can see their next patient but Dr. Belasco is very patient and knowledgable so I feel confident with the procedures of my treatment. Definitely worth a visit if you have any skin concerns!

I had an excellent experience with Blue Harbor Dermatology. I’d been dealing with what I thought was just very dry skin for a few months and had seen a dermatologist in the San Gabriel Valley and didn’t get much relief.
With a very good recommendation from a friend I decided to scheduled an appointment. I was very pleasantly surprised that they were able to schedule me that very same week. I made the long drive to Newport Beach, but it turned out to be well worth the miles. From start to finish I got nothing but detail oriented and professional service.
The doctor had great bedside manner and was very thorough with detailed explanations and treatment choices. Turns out I have a mild case of eczema. I felt like I had a way better understanding of my skin and he prescribed me some mild and stronger steroid creams as well as recommending some awesome skin moisturizers. A couple of weeks later, my rashes have cleared up significantly. I will definitely go back to him for any other skin needs and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a legit dermatologist.

Quick summary of my experience:
Office: New and clean
Front Staff: Very polite and attentive (Sarah was especially informative and helpful)
Wait Time: I waited less than 10 minutes before I was seen by the Nurse Practitioner Christine and the dermatologist Dr. Belasco (definitely pleased with this as I know some other doctor visits I’ve waited over 30 minutes to see the doctor even with appointment)
Definitely 5 stars

Going to the Dermatologist has forever been a tough thing for me to do. Since adolescence I have never had good skin and always ashamed of my complexion. Being new to the area, it was important to me to find a Dr. who was kind and didn’t make me feel the insecurities I have about my skin.
Dr. Kevin Belasco came into the exam room with such a friendly, kind smile which reassured me of my choice to see him after relying on the Unilocal community and reading previous reviews.
I was in his office for more than a prescription for my acne. I also needed a mole checked which turned out it needed to be biopsied during my visit. Dr. Belasco talked me through the procedure and within minutes it was over — and completely painless! (and thank God benign!)
I would highly recommend Dr. Belasco and his office to anyone looking for a comfortable, quiet office with a staff that cares.

I went to Dr. Belasco after suffering with psoriasis my entire life. I have been to many Dermatoligist and was always told there is just no hope. He and his staff were so welcoming and told me there is hope! I felt suddenly encouraged but still optimistic, him and the staff told me they LOVE psoriasis patients! If you are a psoriasis sufferer I am sure you haven’t heard that before entering this office. The nicest Dr. and staff I have ever met!!!
He prescribed a new drug called Otezla for me, I started taking it and within days my skin was clearing up! Six months later I am 99percent clear.
I can’t say enough good things about this Dr., treating psoriasis is his passion! So please if you are suffering from this, go see him, he will help you and most importantly he wants to help you!!! It took me years to find him, I am 59 years old and I’ve been suffering with this since I was 5 years old! My hope is to help other patients like myself find Dr. Belasco– I feel so much better. Please let him help you too!

I never write five star reviews since I only write reviews when a place really upsets me. What made this time different is how great Dr. Belasco and his staff treated me.
I didn’t have time to make an appointment prior to my visit as I came in with a nasty rash. I assumed the rash would go away and I tried to treat it with over the counter medicine for a few days until it started to spread to other parts of my body. The same day I noticed what was happening, I Unilocaled for a dermatologist around the area and found Blue Harbor. My visit to his dermatology has been the best doctors visit I’ve experienced.
Dr. Belasco asked me questions while examining me and made me feel really comfortable throughout my whole visit. I can tell how passionate he is about his job by how he treats his patients. He gave me medicine for my rash the same day I visited him and I’m really thankful. It cleared the rashes that had spread over my body after a couple of days! (Woo hoo I’m rash free!!) The receptionist helped me get an appointment right away and the nurse in the room (.Sarah I think?) was really helpful with explaining how the delivery pharmacy would work and went over how to go over my medications.
I would absolutely recommend Dr. Belascos office to my friends and family. Thank you sooo much for such a nice experience!

Since moving to OC last year I have finally found an honest, thorough derm here! Dr. Belasco and the Nurse practitioner, Christine, are extremely welcoming and professional.
The office is very clean and efficient and the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. I came in and was seen very quickly and the doctor took the time to discuss my skin concerns.
He also recommended and sold me some really great products that helped my chronic hair loss as well as some anti aging skincare that didn’t break the bank.
I am really excited to come back and get a chemical peel from Christine soon! I definitely recommend this office for both general skin issues and cosmetic services.

I work in healthcare and am pretty particular about who I’ll see and recommend. Plus, efficiency is HUGE to me… that’s not always the case as you can imagine in the medical world. I went in to see Dr Belasco after my previous derm moved — Dr Belasco had great reviews here and on Healthgrades — plus the ability to fill everything out electronically? Score!
Pros:
— Super easy to book an appointment, he saw me the same day
— Text confirmation of my appointment
— Electronic record keeping (ZocDoc — love them)
— Easy parking (ingress/​egress was a breeze)
— Clean office and nice reception
— Dr Belasco deets: super friendly, great bedside manner. He provided a thorough assessment of my issue — I had a slight breakout from hair products and the samples he gave me cleared me up within two days!!! (I was seriously concerned about these breakouts and previously attempted to treat them at home, which was a total DISASTER). He also biopsied two irregular moles «to be on the safe side» — practically painless and no other derm I’ve been to has gone that extra mile. You can tell he really cares about his patients and takes the time to listen to their concerns (sadly, this is surprisingly rare these days)
Cons:
— Nada. The experience was everything you could ask for and more in a Dr visit.
Verdict:
— Come here if you want knowledgeable advice, treatment of skin concerns, to be treated well, and efficient service. I love that they are so streamlined with their processes here. Thanks, Dr Belasco and team!!!
