If you want a confident, caring and skilled orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Nanson should be your surgeon. He gave me hope when 2 other surgeons said they could not help me with complications post knee replacement. I put my trust in him and am so glad I did. He explained everything well and took time to make sure I had no questions. His staff is also competent, knowledgeable and caring.
