He's an amazing doctor. He's so kind and generous and spends a great deal of time with his patients. He's very knowledgeable and thoughtful about every aspect of his work.

Dr. Nelson did surgery on my son's feet and I can't say enough good about the process. The doctor gave us his cell phone number and visited my son at home to change his bandages and check on him multiple times.

Don't go to anyone else.

This doctor HAS to be the most friendly and accommodating doctor I have EVER met. It is NEVER fun to go to the doctor especially when you are in pain--this man seems to know that and makes the visit pleasant and informative as well as therapeutic.

He deserves the best of reviews. You will not find a bad word about him.

It is obvious that their office is cleaned regularly. It was fantastic. They really go above and beyond to make me feel special. I've never been anywhere that seems to care more about their clients than here. They were one of the kindest, most caring staff I've ever dealt with. It didn't matter how many times I called with a question or concern, they were always happy to help me. I never had to doubt their qualifications. They made their credentials completely obvious, which made me feel a lot safer. I couldn't believe how great their office looked. It was very obvious that they took pride in the office's appearance. It was one of the best looking offices I've ever seen. DOCTOR NELSON has the best bedside manner I have ever experienced. I had not seen him for a YEAR of more and dropped in with no appointment to ask him to do some disability paper work for me. Now THAT would send most doctors running. Instead he met me with a smile knew my name before I told him and remembered details of my case that I had forgotten. He inquired on how his work had carried forward and agreed with enthusiasm to help me with a disability report. This doctor and his father were and are the best foot doctors In the state (at least) HE is careful, detailed to a fault and knows his field inside and out. Though he had the opportunity to criticize other doctors for the disasters they completed on their overdone surgeries to my feet-- HE did no such thing. HE just remarked on how HE would approach any surgeries differently and explained everything to my complete satisfaction. How he does this and still keeps the waiting period to a reasonable period of 20-30 minutes I cannot figure out. I applaud him. He is compassionate, genuine and highly skilled. NOt many around like him. NO I am not his mother.
