Verified patient
Dr. Nielson is great! It was only my first appointment and I'm very happy to have found such a kind and thorough doctor. He doesn't make you feel rushed and explains everything well. Going to the gyno being what it is I can't say "I can't wait to go back!" but I am certainly not dreading it. ;)
Verified patient
Dr. Nielson is always so friendly and tells you exactly what to expect during the appointment so there are no surprises. Have been seeing him for several years and plan to continue doing so.
Verified patient
I don't think I will be going back. He was nice, but I didn't feel like he took my fertility concerns seriously. I am 27 and hoping for my first child. If I tell a doctor that I am concerned about my history of ovarian cysts and anovulatory cycles, I expect a little more then "come back in 3 months if you aren't pregnant." Maybe some advice, herbal supplement suggestions, testing done, a future game plan, exercise routine...something! I had to basically hold him back as he was trying to escape talking to me. I know you are busy doc, but I'm paying for this appointment and I have questions! Well it is about 3 months later and still no baby. So have found another doctor to see in about 2 weeks. Hopefully she will be of more assistance to me since I am once again having anovulatory cycles and I feel the pain of a possible cyst.. OUCH!
Verified patient
He was very polite and very helpful!! he did not make me feel uncomfortable at all my fiance went with me because it was my first visit and I was kind of nervous but as soon as we walked out he said " this is you doctor only from now on!" we were both very happy with his service. I highly recommend him.

No waiting time. Friendly staff. Nice doctor.
Verified patient
Dr. Nielson delivers almost all of his patients which is a rare find these days. He is smart, informative, timely & funny. I had specific requests for my birth which he accomodated gracefully. I have referred friends & family members to Dr. Nielson & once again they have nothing but positive things to say about him (even complicated & high risk situations) I will never see any other provider.
Amazing to say the least! I never wait more than a few minutes to see him. His staff is very friendly and knowledgable. He always takes his time in his office visits and procedures, explaining in detail. He has the best bedside manner i've ever seen in a doctor honestly. When i am there i feel more important than just another patient on the schedule. When i call into the office for prescriptions or questions i always hear back promptly. There really is nothing negative or mediocre about Dr. Nielson or his staff.
Dr. Nielson is always very thorough & answers all my questions. He never rushes through my appointment & is very informative, friendly, & understanding. He always remembers me & the issues I've been in for without reviewing my chart, which makes me feel important.
The staff was very professional and courteous. The office is clean and well maintained. I would highly recommend this office.
They got be back into a room fast & I hardly had to wait long to see the doctor. Most doctors I've seen in the past I had to wait over an hour, which was frustrating & difficult to fit into my work schedule. The staff was very friendly & Dr. Nielson was very professional & made me feel very comfortable. I've already referred all my friends to Dr. Nielson, because it was by far the best experience I've had at an OB/GYN's office.
