I'm a new patient within the last two years and I found Dr. Nelson to be a very professional, a good listener and easy to communicate with. He always takes the time to explain things in detail and inquire if I understand or if there are any additional questions. Only two appointments with doctor nelson in the past fourteen months and both visits were positive experiences.
