Rodney D. Bell, MD – Neurologist

Bob Speck was home when he collapsed with a stroke. Within 30 minutes he was being treated by neurologist Dr. Rodney Bell at Jefferson Hospital. Bleeding in his brain was stopped, improving the flow of oxygen, saving precious brain tissue. Not only did Bob regain his speech and mobility, a year later he was on safari in Africa. Amazing? Yes. The extraordinary happens here every day. The Jefferson Stroke Center is one of the most advanced of its kind in the United States. We improve the odds of recovery from stroke for patients like Bob every day.

Jefferson Hospital has the largest stroke center—and has more patients with acute stroke referred here—
than any other area hospital.
