Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Poor result
I had a procedure done... much more pain than I had anticipated or been told to expect, result was not good... the major issues solved, but several large, noticeable bumps and lumps remained... and some sagging... which should NOT have been present if the procedure was done properly. When I remarked on this,,, the doctor told me he could correct those for several hundred $$$ additional. I was also sold an after-surgery salve that was worthless.

I went to his office for a consultation for breast reduction. He recommended during the exam that we run the procedure through insurance carrier. His office staff told me the day of my visit they would be contacting my insurance. 2 mo later& 3 phones I made to his office , no one had done anything with my chart. they said theywere too busy. I was lied to by his office staff told they had submitted the request. I called my insurance & his staff had not submitted anything. I Filed fraud claim

Waste of MONEY $5,000 and time spent healing... Rhinoplasty/Septoplasty, Appearance of nose very little improvement if any and no improvement in breathing through left nostril, right nostril some improvement, makes procedure sound very promising prior to surgery then gives excuses for poor results after procedure. Get second opinion !

I had sagging skin on my upper arms and really needed surgery. My friend where I live is a retired surgical nurse and recommended Dr. Nelson. He was honest and kind and the office staff was great. The surgery was a complete success and I believe no other doctor could have given me more perfect results! My arms look and feel so much better and I am extremely grateful! I plan to have scar revision on another part of my body and would only have Dr. Nelson do the work.
