Perfect experience. Friendly staff, limited waiting and very efficient process. Been a patient for over 10 years and wouldn't consider anywhere else.

I paid $92 to be rescheduled. An "exam fee". I was going in to get fillings. He did not have time so it was rescheduled and I basically paid to wait in the waiting room 15 minutes. He didn't even look in my mouth longer than 20 seconds.

Dr. Nelson and his entire staff are always extremely accommodating, friendly and professional. We used to live 10 minutes away from his office. Now, we live 2+ hours away, but I STILL SEE DR. NELSON! He is the first Dentist that ever really made me feel comfortable about going to a Dentist!

I have been having on/off pain in my wisdom tooth, and had a routine exam. Dr. Nelson is a talker, but did answer the questions I managed to get in. He even recommend a good electrical toothbrush which I appreciated, and explained things with analogies sometimes which helped me understand some of my options. However, he was pretty insistent on me losing the tooth next to my wisdom tooth, despite of the X-Ray being unclear on that side. He couldn't tell if the shadow on the tooth next to my wisdom tooth was decay or not, and said the surgeon would be able to see it clearly after extracting my wisdom tooth and make the call then and there while I'm asleep. He said it was up to me, but he strongly didn't recommend I try to keep it, and to be "prepared to lose both." He said a dental implant/crown combo would be my best option, despite the X-ray not being clear. I get he was advising me of the possibilities, but when I said I only wanted my wisdom tooth extracted, he kept discouraging me. I personally didn't like that. I may get a second opinion. Also, they require you to keep your debit card on file. I don't like that either. I'm afraid they could decide to resolve a balance based on what the insurance company says at any moment. But everyone was super nice otherwise and I thank them for their time.

Dr. Nelson and his crew are the best around. I was a total dentophobe until I started going to Dr. Nelson and he was able to quell my fear. That, in and of itself was an amazing feat. We highly recommend them!

1st time with Dr Nelson and his amazing team. Everyone was so nice. I'm not a fan of dental visits (huge understatement), but Dr Nelson and his team took their time, made me feel at ease. If you have some dental issues, they are very informative and helpful with a treatment plan. Great job.
