Seems like he's in a hurry, brusque personality, not a good listener. Would have liked him to have been thorough.

Dr. Nelson is terrific.. he has a great bedside manner and has always been a tremendous help to me and my family. I've suffered from numerous auto-immune issues and Dr. Nelson has always taken the time to listen to me, runs tests and be encouraging. I highly recommend Dr. Nelson.

My husband has seen Dr. Nelson a handful of times over the years. Recently he had an illness that lasted weeks. By the time he saw Dr. Nelson he had already been seen by 2 others including one of Dr. Nelson's partners. Dr. Nelson drew some labs (that I requested he draw) - only now, a few weeks later, am I actually seeing those results because a new provider requested them. We never heard back. And one of those results was HUGELY abnormal - and included a note on the lab report that it should be repeated. HORRIBLE medicine. I can't believe he would note this result and not even notify us. NO confidence in this physician. Do NOT go to him.

More or less accused me of being a drug addict. This guy is a jerk and lost any future patronage.

Would not return repeated calls about test results nor to provide a new antibiotic prescription..knowing full well the PAIN I was in for several months battling infection.Doing a bit of research online about this Dr. & you will see all negative feedback/reviews.
