Welcome to Bell Physical Therapy Sports Performance & Rehabilitation!
Welcome, I am glad you found us and I am excited to help you on your road to recovery!
My name is Dr. Sam Bell and I am a Licensed Physical Therapist and Athletic Trainer.
I spent 2 seasons on the Houston Astros medical staff serving a dual role of athletic trainer and team physical therapist. From 2012 to 2018 I worked as a physical therapist and assistant athletic trainer with the Baltimore Ravens, and was fortunate enough to be with them during their 2012-13 Super Bowl Championship season. I received my Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Columbia University.
I am now helping athletes and patients of all ages to get better and reach their goals! See below for a list of services.

What People Are Saying.
"Sam helped me recover from a devastating achilles injury. Without his help I would not have been able to return in the same season and help the Ravens with the Super Bowl!"
Terrell Suggs
Baltimore Ravens, LB
“Sam helped me recover from multiple injuries including a severe right ACL, MCL, and meniscus injury. Because of Sam’s guidance, I returned to the field and played at my best the following season and earned a spot in the 2016 NFL Pro Bowl. I still use the principles I learned from Sam to stay healthy, strong, and compete at a high level in the NFL. There is no one that I trust more in injury prevention and recovery.”
Morgan Cox
Tennessee Titans, LS
“Sam was dedicated and passionate and I could not have made my recovery and returned for another Pro Bowl Season without him.”
Marshall Yanda
Baltimore Ravens, OL
"I sustained a devastating injury to my Achilles late in the off-season and with Dr. Sam's guidance I was not only able to pitch again that year, but pitch in the World Series that same season."
Joe Smith
Houston Astros, P
“Dr. Bell has the vast knowledge of science and body mechanics of an individual. He is able to guide and coached me recovering from a neck injury. As an athlete my whole life, I was so frustrated by not able to train as strenuous as I could before. With Sam's help , I'm able to lift and do my regular routine again. Thank you for making me move better. I wouldn't have done it without his help!”
Fitzpatrick Alvero
“I've been seeing Sam for 4 months and wish I'd started years ago. The therapy and work out routines and coaching provided by Sam have helped correct the issue. Sam is great at designing workouts that are safe and appropriately challenging that correct muscle imbalances and build strength. In the 4 months I've been visiting Bell Physical Therapy I've gained a considerable amount of strength and move and feel much better throughout the day. I value the expertise and feel so much better, I recommended Bell Physical Therapy to my wife and she has also been a patient now for several weeks and already feels better throughout the day. Highly recommend!”
