Dr Nelson provides the best patient experience! He has consistently provided me with updated and important information throughout my Prostate Oncology journey for over nine years now. He is thoughtful, caring, and listens to my concerns about treatments and side effects. I cannot say how profoundly thankful I am to have him as my doctor.
