I think that Dr. Nelsons office has to be one of the best offices that I have been to. I love the two girls that work there, they are always smiling or laughing. because is't that what we want to see when we go into the doctors office? I recommend Dr. Nelson, he is a very good doctor and alwas takes his time with his patients.

I needed a doctor to diagnose my condition. The two girls in the office were the most unprofessional, uncaring staff I have ever encountered. I requested the Dr return my phone call. He never did. Maybe he never got my message, If I had a emergency I could not trust him to take care of me.
