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.

Amazing Experience
Not only did I meet with Dr. Bell twice and had a great experience, I chose him for my shoulder replacement surgery with reverse revision. The doctor spent enough time with me before the surgery was planned, so I felt ready and confident in going ahead. I'm 3 months out from surgery and it's been a total success! I found Dr. Bell easy to talk to, empathetic, and open to all my questions and concerns. I'll definitely have Dr. Bell do the surgery in my other shoulder when I'm ready.

Before talking to Dr. Bell, I visited three others who wouldn't touch a badly torn rotator cuff. He touched it ten years ago and I've been free of pain since. There is some limited mobility, but that is due to two shortened tendons anchored with plastic screws. Trust this surgeon. He cares and he knows what he is doing. (Yes, there are some who do not.)

I saw Dr. Bell several years ago for an acute problem in the shoulder region following a sports injury . Dr. Bell was kind, calm, patient, knowledgeable, and above all highly adept. He performed a corrective surgery which allowed me to return to sports in a relatively short period of time. Dr. Bell's surgery and overall care restored 100% function in the area of injury, and I am grateful to have been his patient.
