[Dr. Bell] took his time on my case and made sure everything was mapped precisely for surgery, communicating with me along the way and illustrating all the steps in the surgery process. He also really impressed me going into surgery with his kind words and encouragement. I dealt with little to no complications in my recovery process and I am happy with my results functionally and aesthetically. I truly appreciate him and his work and for changing my life.
Dr. Bell is truly a one of a kind doctor who not only excels in his work, but truly cares for his patients. He is straight to the point and very thorough on giving instructions for before surgery and after surgery care, which goes to show his experience and professionalism. From my own experience, I had a double jaw surgery that fixed my under-bite due to cleft lip and cleft palette … Dr. Bell’s keen eye and skills resolved the problem carefully and efficiently, leaving me with great results and a confident smile.
[Dr. Bell ] cares about his patients and what he does and it really shows in his character, he’s precise and meticulous and detailed and artistic, which are, without a doubt, amazing qualities you want in any surgeon … he was very clear and concise about what this sort of surgery entails which made it much less daunting than it initially seemed, and it’s clear by his conduct that he’s highly experienced and knows exactly what he’s doing … I honestly could not be happier with the result, as well as my experience with Dr. Bell and this surgery as a whole.
I think someone earlier called him the “Iron Man/Tony Stark” of Maxillofacial surgery. This is as accurate as it gets. The first time I saw him he just measured my face for 15 minutes without much of a word, but in his head probably saw my entire 6 month future. My experience has been one of the best decisions of my life, and I would not trust anyone other than Dr. Bell. I feel extremely lucky to have had his care, courtesy, and assurance throughout the procedure. His assistant was also very pleasant and thoughtful every time I came in for an appointment. Relax and know you are with the best:)
Dr. Bell put me in touch with a great orthodontist and dentists that are the best at what they do. I was extremely skeptical in the beginning, because I had already been through so much, but I’m so glad I took a chance, it was so worth it. The jaw surgery itself was way less scary and no where near as painful as I had imagined, which was a big relief. I no longer have jaw pain and my life has improved so much. I can sleep and actually feel rested for the first time in years. I heard the comment, “he’s the best” from so many people who knew of Dr. Bell’s work and now that I have first hand experience, I can attest to that. Thank you, Dr. Bell!
My double jaw surgery and genioplasty chin surgery turned out perfectly and am am so lucky I was one of Dr. Bell’s patients. After reading about all the things that can possibly go wrong with this kind of surgery and reading so many horror stories about people in the hands of inexperienced surgeons, I was extremely careful about who I put my faith (and face) with. I did my research and there is no question that I made the correct choice. Dr. Bell was extremely thorough, meticulous, prepared, funny, warm, at times strict about his expectations of me in taking care of myself after surgery, but in the end, he definitely exceeded my expectation of what a truly outstanding physician and surgeon is and should be.
Simply put Dr.Bell is the BEST and your go to Surgeon when it comes to all things related to Maxillofacial Surgery … I was able to see the passion Dr. Bell has for his craft. He’s a very confident, detailed oriented, and focused Doctor. He really takes the time to evaluate YOU and your specific case and answers all your questions. I feel like he’s the Tony Stark of Maxillofacial Surgery … He’s the best and after trusting my orthodontist advice and meeting him I can see why people hold Dr. Bell in high regards and why he is highly respected in his field.
Dr. Bell was highly recommended to me by my orthodontist after several years of preparation to get my teeth ready for surgery. After several visits to Dr. Bell he proved to be the perfect doctor for the procedure. He evaluated me by taking measurements and many photographs. …Dr. Bell collaborated with both my dentist and orthodontist over the entire period of treatment carefully studying the progression of my teeth. …Thank you Dr. Bell for taking great care of me and assuring me the surgical outcome would be perfect. And it is perfect.
My son was probably one of the most challenging patients imaginable. Besides being autistic, he had so many problems with his bite and tongue thrust that he wore braces for 4 1/2 years. ….Dr. Bell worked with my son for almost 2 years to get him ready for the surgery. …[Dr. Bell] worked with him, his orthodontist and a psychiatrist to get him ready. Were it not for Dr. Bell’s dogged persistence, the surgery would never have occurred. …If one needs to have this kind of extensive surgery, I cannot imagine putting yourself in anyone else’s hands.
Dr. Bell made every single worry I had disappear. He even made me excited about the change I was to undergo. Bell is a truly confident, skilled and precise surgeon. He took so much extra time to analyze my case from many different angles. …He gave me confidence in myself and a new start. I am not completely healed yet, but so far, I am extremely happy with my results. I feel like a new person and this was the best decision I ever made!
[Dr. Bell] is incredibly kind and caring, and gets to know you as a person. He truly cares about your emotional well-being, and does everything that he can to comfort you amidst the stress and anxiety of jaw surgery. His bedside manner, humor, kindness (and every other good trait he has — there are just too many to list) set him apart from every single maxillofacial surgeon you might encounter. I remember at my 4 week post op my stitches were irritated and hurting very badly, and he removed them (also painful) but his jokes and goofiness helped me through it…
Dr. Bell is excellent all around. Unique aspects about him are that he is very thorough and detailed. He invests the adequate time needed to prepare and perform well. Note that he also expects this of the patient in the form of reading, listening, and following instructions, both verbal and written. He will do a good job.
Professional, warmhearted, empathetic, and compassionate. These are just a few words that describe my experience with Dr. Bell. He did a phenomenal job on my surgery. I am extremely happy with my results and would highly reccommend Dr. Bell. He is an amazing surgeon and makes his patients feel comfortable and secure. He defmately goes above and beyond for his patients in order to meet their needs. I can’t thank Dr. Bell enough for everything he has done for me.
Dr Bell presented me couple of options to fix my jaw and I told him to do what he thought was necessary. I underwent a hip surgery, so that the surgeons could obtain a piece of my hip bone. The hip bone was used to provide me cheekbones and at the same time fixing my under-bite problem. I am extremely happy with the results. …I could not have asked for a better doctor to perform the surgery and walk me through the recovery period smoothly. …I can eat, talk and breath better. My looks has changed drastically and I’m happy with my new look. would recommend Dr David Bell anytime to anyone. Thank you Dr Bell.
