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.

Thorough
Travis is a very thorough doctor. I have known him for a very long time. He asks questions and gets “to the bottom “ of whatever is going on.

Incredible listener, genuinely empathetic, and considers all the possibilities. Up to date with new medicine. His staff is as good as they get! I switched several years ago to get in with Dr. Nielsen and I have been so happy with his quality of care.

Dr. Nielsen's most outstanding attribute is his listening skills. He never interrupts, asks questions appropriately, never demeans or criticizes and he always gives you hope when you think a situation is hopeless. He is kind, caring, and very empathetic. Finally, Dr. Nieelsen is very competent and knowledgeable.It is obvious that he stays current with any standard of practice. He always helps the next generation of doctors by mentoring. Dr. N. is one of a kind!!!!
