“Dr. Nelson provided a right knee replacement for me in 2012. It went well, and I was recovering at home the next day. The therapy and recovery went well. My goals were obtained quickly, and I had little pain after four weeks. After eight and a half months, my knee functions well without pain. I thank Dr. Nelson for helping me. He was very professional, and my results were very good.”
