Bell, Jason MD

Dr. Jason Bell joined the Orthopaedic Department at NBMC in April 2026 after a long and successful career at South Coast Orthpaedic Associates.

Dr. Bell grew up in California and began his undergraduate studies in Biological Sciences at UC Davis. Then, on a USAF Health Professions Scholarship, he attended medical school at University of California-Irvine where he was exposed to a variety of medical disciplines. He applied himself to many clerkships, and realized that orthopaedics most matched his personality. He stayed on at UC Irvine for a five-year Orthopaedic Surgery residency; and then served as an Orthopedic Surgeon in the United States Air Force.

After six months of working in the war-zone in Iraq, Dr. Bell searched for a peaceful practice to settle into. While most people relocate for scenery and natural beauty, Dr. Bell’s decision to move to the Oregon coast was primarily based on the collegial opportunity presented by South Coast Orthopaedic Associates. As a general Orthopaedic surgeon, he treats a wide variety of conditions and is adept at finding unlikely solutions and alternatives to surgery.

Dr. Bell had an opportunity to work as an orthopedic surgical attending physician for 6 months at Waikato Hospital in Hamilton, New Zealand. This was a great chance for him to work at a level one trauma hospital, training orthopedic residents, and managing complex fractures. He takes pride in the quality of his practice, and he loves the close-knit community that he serves. He loves the rural lifestyle and the overall safety of the area. When he is not working, he enjoys hiking, searching for mushrooms, running, skiing, and flying in his airplane with family. He’s also in a band with other local physicians, and they play small gigs like birthday parties and bar mitzvahs.
