Dr. Patrick Bell joined the team at The Joint Chiropractic in 2019 with his arrival at the Brookfield clinic. A graduate of Wisconsin-LaCrosse with a bachelor of science in biology and chemistry, he got his doctorate of chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic.
“The thing I love about being in this field is helping and managing care for patients,” he says. “Seeing people get better is the most rewarding aspect to being a chiropractor."
“The other thing I love is teaching and empowering patients so that they are able to get well on their own with the aid of chiropractic.”
Dr. Bell worked previously in Mt. Pleasant, Racine, Glendale, and Milwaukee, as well as Iowa and Colorado.
In his spare time he enjoys being with his wife Elizabeth and spending time outdoors and the adventures that brings. He’s also keen on stretching and exercising, and enjoys playing sports such as baseball, football, golf, lacrosse, and tennis.
It was on a mission trip to Brazil that Dr. Bell had one of his most gratifying experiences as a chiropractor. A patient said, in his native Portuguese, that “[Dr. Bell] has the hands of a saint.”
“This reaffirmed that chiropractic was my calling to make a difference,” he says.
In Case You Didn’t Know
Dr Bell says the one thing he always has in his refrigerator is water. “I love water,” he says. “It does a body good.”
If he could bring together any individuals from history for his dream dinner party, Dr. Bell would start with Copernicus and Galileo, he says, “to know what it’s like to have a proven idea that society does not accept and be rejected even though the idea was proven correct.”
Dr. Bell would also include basketball player Michael Jordan, who he calls “a living legend, an inspiration of how to be a professional that motivates oneself to perform at the highest level every day.”
Dr. Bell says that his superpower is healing people and the coolest thing he has done “is to help heal people.”
