Patient Reviews
Aug 25, 2022
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Nelson for years. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor, not a therapist, so his job is to identify how modern medicine can work for your particular needs. He is also very aware of what therapies would be appropriate for you. He has helped me tremendously.
