He has good bedside manner. But he misdiagnosed me. And I was put on medicine that effected my life badly for three years. He needs to do more research before prescribing patients medication. If looking for help with your heart, I would go to a different heart doctor that has more experience.

Takes the time to listen, and more importantly, takes the time to explain conditions and options.

Dr. Nielsen's bedside manner has been incredible. He always takes the time to explain what is going on with my heart. He tells me exactly what to expect with my medications and any therapy that is required. I have never worked with a staff so friendly and professional as his staff. I would strongly recommend anyone to go to Dr. Nelson with their heart issues.

I have been a patient now for over six months. Have been in the office twice and have had phone contact with his staff a few more times. Always a pleasure to work with and are prompt in returning calls and following through. Dr. Nielson is great at explaining, listening and allowing me to help decide what paths to take. He has my full trust. All are so friendly.

His kindsness and understanding makes me remember everyday to take my meds and listen to his advice so I can do my part in making his job ( getting me better) way more simple.
