I've been a patient of Dr Nelson for almost a year. His mannerism is great and so very polite. Answers all questions, doesn't push you out the door, and staff is beyond polite and nice. I highly recommend him and can say, he's my favorite Dr thus far. We changed my mom's Dr and now she see's him too. She's 87 and just loves him.

I have had treatment from Dr Nelson for over 6 years, including two replacement surgeries. I could not be more pleased with Dr. Nelson's surgical skills and care. the is very thorough in his explanations and the process progresses as he has stated. Wouldn't go anywhere else.

Dr. Nelson is a wonderful Dr. The problem is getting someone to answer the phone and to call you back so you can make an appointment. It's ridiculous. I have called his office 17 times the last 3 days no one answers phone or calls me back. This is also currently happening to my friend. She called 2 weeks ago left message no call back.
