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.

Highly recommend!
Dr Nelson did my ankle surgery and I am so happy with the result. Years of pain is now gone and I’m able to do all the active things I want. He is also so friendly and takes the time to explain everything and really cares about his patients. I’ve also seen him for just a toenail issue that he fixed. Any problems with foot or ankle - big or small - go see Dr Nelson. He’s the best!

Exceptional Care and Expertise from Dr. Nelson
I finally got help for my chronic ingrown toenail problem, which has been bothering me for ages. Dr. Nelson patiently answered all my questions, and to my surprise, he resolved the issue with a simple in-office procedure during the same appointment. Don't wait as long as I did to get your toes treated—I highly recommend it!
