    Dr. Nelson was incredibly engaging and attentive throughout my visit. She took the time to thoroughly answer all of my questions and made sure I felt comfortable and well informed. She even went the extra mile by scheduling my follow-up mammogram for me, which saved me time and spared me from having to make an additional visit to another doctor on another day. I truly appreciate her thoughtfulness and efficiency, and I couldn't be happier with my new gynecologist.

She listened to me and answered all of my questions without being dismissive, something that I have experienced from other providers in the past.
