Sally Bell, PA-C

Sally is a devoted physician assistant with a passion for building meaningful connections with patients and helping them return to the activities and lifestyles they love. She grew up in Denver and earned her bachelor’s degree in integrative physiology at the University of Colorado Boulder. She worked as a medical assistant for Dr. Austin Chen for several years prior to attending PA school, which fueled her interest and drive to pursue a career in orthopedics. Building on this foundation, she pursued her Master of Health Science degree at Drexel University’s physician assistant program, where she honed her clinical skills and commitment to providing comprehensive healthcare. In recognition of her academic achievements, Sally was awarded with a membership to the Pi Alpha National Honor Society for physician assistants upon graduation.

Now back in Colorado, Sally is excited to rejoin the BoulderCentre for Orthopedics & Spine team and work alongside Dr. Chen once again. As an avid outdoor enthusiast and skier, Sally is committed to delivering evidence-based care to this distinctly active community.

Sally is board-certified by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants and works as a physician assistant specializing in hip preservation, hip replacement, and sports medicine (shoulder, knee).
