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.

I have been going to Dr Bell's office for five months and have yet to see the actual doctor! All I have seen are so called nurse practitioners who took me off medication for my stomach that I had been on for four years without even consulting the doctor! Some of the staff is nice, however, the main np or pa, older woman, is very rude and condescending. The office as a whole is unprofessional. As far as I can tell the doctor must not even come into his own office?! Very displeased.

I was a regular patient of Dr.Tim Bell until 2014 when I was told I could not be his patient because my insurance.DrBell did just what I had asked. Please fix me. And Thank God!!After 2 years not getting to see Dr.Bell.2 ER visits and a general physician can't do the work Dr.Bell done by himself. And the reason that the insurance don't take him anymore is to save money. Even my math is better than that. Dr.Tim Bell could have saved them just this week thousands Dr.Bell is a very smart & caring.

Just moved to the area and looking for a family practitioner. Had an appointment, supposed to be there 30 minutes before appointment. Arrived 10 minutes before appointment. Big receptionist lady was VERY rude and told me she was going to have to reschedule me. Waiting room was completely empty. How can people be in the healthcare industry be so mean ? I hope that receptionist lady finds some help to get her thru her issues. Her issues now puts my treatments off for at least another 3 weeks. BAD
