Dr. Nelson-Freund and staff are excellent. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Dr friend recommended a cortosone shot in both knees& it has been very helpful.
Everyone carried out their various activities professionally and competently, always showing care, openness and respect. It was amazing to see all these individuals function so smoothly and seamlessly as a team.
Everything went very wellGreat communication Friendly Easy to understand
The doctor and PA were both wonderful and caring.
Getting the provider to come talk with me and answer questions before going Into surgery was difficult and somewhat disconcerting.
Very informative and professional.
Everyone was very nice
It was a pleasure working with the doctor and his team.
Dr. Nelson-Freund displays calm active listening without any judgement when I needed more time to make a decision. I appreciated his approach letting me delay acceptance of knee replacement for what ended up being 2 years after my initial contact.
Keep up the excellent work.
I was treated very professionally. Everything was explained clearly.
Dr. N-F is the best knee doctor ever. He is friendly and warm plus has an amazing skill. The surgeon resident with him was also very good.
Dr and his assistant both helped me feel confident that I had chosen the right place to receive care.
Everyone in the clinic was awesome
