Patient Reviews
Apr 11, 2024
I went to Dr. Nelson for a second opinion after my original orthopedist looked at my MRI and said nothing was wrong. Dr. Nelson was immediately able to see and show me where my UCL was torn. The reconstruction went great and I’m almost back to 100% at just under 4 months. He and his whole team were very nice and always took the time to answer any questions I had.
