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.

Sensitive and understanding
Dr. Nelson made sure to look me in the eye and asked if I was okay before proceeding with any treatment. This made me feel seen and heard, which I feel is overlooked by many doctors who seem to want to shuffle a patient in and out without taking time to connect with them.

Wonderful bedside manner
Dr. Nelson was an absolute breath of fresh air! As a woman with “hard to diagnose” conditions, I have often had to justify a diagnosis. Dr. Nelson not only believed me right away, but completely agreed and validated me. She created a swift action plan and answered all of my questions. I will recommend her to any and everyone!

Any women suffering from Uterine fibroids should research UFE. Please ask your Gyn for a referral. The only option given to me initially was to have a hysterectomy. From there, I found a new Gyn who informed me of all my options. I’ve suffered for many years not knowing this option was available. This was the worst part of my experience. However, the best part is having a min. invasive procedure and seeing results almost immediately. The downtime is but a fraction. Dr. Nelson changed my life!
