No matter how good a doctor is, if they don't respect their patient's time especially those elderly patients who tire easily, they aren't that good. One is measured by the way in which they treat others. This doctor needs to consider how he continually arrives at his office very late and will have several patients behind already. It is also disrespectful to his nurse and others.

Dr. Nelson has the kind of bedside mannor that makes visiting with him a pleasure. He can also tell you that you are doing something stupid to your health in a way that makes you willing to listen and improve, not get your back up.He doesn't rush to overmedicate, but instead pays a lot of attention to what you say and follows up, medicating as appropriate.He consistently comes in to my appointment well versed in my history and ready to ask the key questions.I also REALLY like his nurse, Debbie, who is bright, pleasant, and caring.

Seems to think that health problems will just pass and if they don't, they must be in all your head.
