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.

Thank you Dr. Bell and your nice staff
My wrists are my livelihood and Dr. Bell helped to save that! I work as a court reporter and I been having trouble with my wrist for a long time. Dr. Bell did my surgery and I am back to work, better than ever. I was scared of the surgery because so many people scare you with horror stories. This was not a bad experience at all. Thank you Dr. Bell and your nice staff.

The pain was messing with my mind
This guy is the BOMB! Dr. Bell helped me after I was injured in a road accident. I honestly did not think I would ever be happy again. The pain was messing with my mind. I had to have 2 ESIs and after the first one, man I was skeptical. I for sure did not like the idea of the procedure. Like the needle scared me. But, after the 2nd one, I feel like I could get up and dance. That is how much better I feel. I am not feeling bad for myself any more. Thank you, Dr. Bell!!

Dr. Bell is a good doctor
I saw Dr. Bell for a rotator cuff surgery last year. He is a good doctor and he got my shoulder fixed. I was only in a sling for a minimal amount of time. The best thing is that he is not one of these doctors who pushes a lot of pain meds. I don't believe in all of those pain pills and I was so happy that they were not given. This is a good doctor who cares about people getting better.

I would definitely go here again
I brought my brother to this doctor because he does not have insurance and we needed to see someone who handles cash pay patients. My brother works in the landscaping field and needs to be back on the job. Well, this doctor worked with us and was able to get us the procedure we needed at a price we could afford. It is nice to know there are still doctors out there who actually care about their patients. Dr. Bell took care of us and got my brother back to work. I would definitely go here again.

Very friendly
My daughter experienced a field hockey injury and we were referred to one of those medical center doctors. She was nice enough, but trying to find her office in the med center, find a place to park and then wait for 3.5 hours for a scheduled appointment is not for me. Also, it was like $15 to park there!! Dr. Bell has a nice office that is easy to find and the parking is free. The nurses there were very friendly. They got her xrayed quickly and the office visit did not take all day long. The appointment was at 10am and we were in a room by 10:10am. Dr. Bell explained the injury to us and explained why surgery would not be necessary. He will talk to you as long as you need. That is the mark of a good doctor.....not rushing you out of the office.

Dr. B is very nice and personable
My dad has been suffering some aches and pains from a car wreck for a while. We were referred to Dr. Bell's office and figured we would give it a try. Dr. Bell scheduled my dad for an ESI after his initial visit. I sure wish we had done this a lot sooner. I've been driving my dad all over town for doctor's appointments and physical therapy and that was getting old. This ESI has really helped a lot. My dad does not have all that pain anymore. Also, that Dr. B is very nice and personable. He does not talk down to you and he really cares.

I am so grateful to Dr. Bell
I recently had a baby and while still on maternity leave, I fell and injured my rotator cuff. Mentally, I was really not in the frame of mind to deal with this. A friend referred me to Dr. Bell and that may have saved my life. He really has a good bedside manner. And he seemed to understand that I was having trouble dealing with having an infant at home and needing a surgery and needing recovery time where I would be limited in my ability to pick up my baby. He walked me through the process and told me we could do this and that we would get through it. His staff checked on me after my surgery and they were so kind at my follow-ups. He provided exercises that really helped me out and I feel better. I am so grateful to Dr. Bell and his staff.

I am feeling good again
I sustained a back injury through no fault of my own (was riding in a car with my cousin on way to funeral when a car hit us). I saw a couple of doctors who only wanted to do surgery or physical therapy. The physical therapy gave a little relief, but not enough. But I am not really I interested in surgery if I don't have to do that. Dr. Bell suggested we try an ESI for my pain. I can not tell you how happy I am with the outcome. I did not have to take a lot of time off of work and I got some real relief. Thanks to Dr. Bell, I am feeling good again.

I am back at work and feeling great
I am an employee of the Federal government and I went to this provider (Dr. Bell) to treat my carpal tunnel. I was seriously considering the possibility of having to quit my job because I really could not meet the demands of my job. Dr. Bell examined me and indicated that I could get relief and have a return to near normal functioning after surgery. I decided to try the surgery and it was definitely a success. I had the surgery on a Tuesday and I was off for 2 weeks. I am back at work and feeling great. I am so glad that I did the surgery. Dr. Bell knows his stuff.

Waited an hour to see the dr. Spent a good while talking to me. I had brought my own recent xrays in but he told me they are of no use to him as they needed to be made from the standing position. This sounded strange but okay. He still really could not tell me anything about my knees or hip after he redid my X-rays. He then told me he needed mri and cat scan. So again I said ok but what will you do about the pain now. He wanted to give me pain pills. I have had at least five steroid shots in my life time and never have I been in surgery to receive one.i ask him to give me a steroid shot in my hip and he about had a coronary. So after 2 hours and no relief I was ready to leave. I wanted copies of my X-rays I paid for and was told I could take pics of them with my phone. Of courseI said no and ended up paying 40.00 for them. Staff was rude to me. Going back to my UT orthropedic doc in a week. Would have gone to see him first but could not get an appt for a week.
