I feel like I'm in very capable hands. And I'm looking forward to my surgery!
Was very impressed with Dr Nielsens interaction with and explanations to our daughter and us. Would highly recommend him.
Excellent care and service. Highly recommend to others.
Dr. John Neilson is one of the orthopedic surgeons that make Froedtert a top US ranked hospital. Although my medical conditions were numerous, he operated with great care and precision over many hours. He led an experienced team and coordinated with numerous specialists and caregivers throughout my stay, all the while respecting my personal beliefs and wishes. My family and I are most grateful for his skill, and for the honesty and integrity he delivered in my care.
Very satisfying visit
They have always been very good, friendly and knowledgeable.
The care and support that my surgical team has offered me, from my first visit through my follow-ups, has been exemplary
For my first time going to Froedtert, I was pleasantly impressed with their kindness and care.
Dr. Neilson was straight forward about what I need to do before the surgery. I am a smoker and was told I need to quit before so the healing process is better.
I am happy to say I am eager to start my treatment with the sarcoma team
