  I had C-diff and after going to Dr. Bell and explaining my symptoms he assured me it was just a stomach virus and ignored my pleas that this was much worse and had been going on for nearly 2 weeks. He prescribed nausea and knock off pain medication. 3 days later at night I was crying in pain, and I have a decent pain threshold. Ended up in the hospital. Like I said before it was C-Diff. Anyone knowing what c-diff is knows it's not fun, and dangerous if untreated. Went in before this with a fractured tailbone. After numerous jokes at my expense and no pain meds later I was not examined or anything just told to sit on a donut cushion until it no longer hurt, it still bothers me to this day over 6 years later. I have gone in to see the female doctor with a severely sore throat and even after the strep test was negative was prescribed the unnecessary antibiotics anyway (which could have flared up my c-diff) and had to go to and ear nose throat doctor where I was told I had acid reflux/indigestion so bad it was severely irritating the lining of my throat. Honestly don't have much good to say of the other doctor here either, never seen him personally but of the people I know have threw around the term "quack". Long wait time and almost never helpful. So if you'd like to have to go in numerous times or still have to find a different doctor this is the place for you. If not I recommend looking further. They are local to me but if rather drive 5X as far than go here again.

  I chose this place againt a few towns people telling me not to but, it was very close to my house. I dont have insurance so I paid cash (no big deal) I was VERY sick I was willing to pay what ever! After waiting for an hour I got called back then waited another hour in the room while hearing Dr. Bell outside the room chatting it up (I was so annoyed because I was so sick). He came in looked at my throat said I had tonsilitus and left! I have asthma, he didnt even listen to my chest. My ears hurt, nothing. He had NO time for me! So I left. and a week later got sick again asked them if they could call something in (like my doc. back home would have done) and they said no (remind you I dont have insurance, since I just got a new job) I would have to come in. Oh and by the way I have been on Zanex since I was 17 (maybe use a bottle of 30 pills once a year) Dr. Bell doesnt perscribe them....although its something Ive been on for years! His nurse is a total GROuCh too! Or who ever finally called me back this morning to tell me they FINALLY after 24 hours (cause thats how long it takes the doc. sometimes 48 to call in the perscription) that they would fax in a refill for my inhaler. Avoid this place at all costs!!!!!!!!!! Dr. Bell is AWFul!! The ONLY thing was the front desk ladies where nice. Dont be fooled!!! I dont know what to do now for my meds. I guess I have to pay another "down payment" and hope to find a Doctor who cares and has time for me!

  Dr bell is apathetic and worn out. He's tired and needs to go into retirement. He tunes out the moment you try to tell him anything and seems just go on auto pilot and hand out antibiotics for anything and everything. Every once in a while he'll get lucky and help someone accidentally but you can tell he's been doing this too long and just doesn't give a damn anymore.
