Patient Reviews
Aug 20, 2020
Dr. Nelms is especially knowledgeable and compassionate with my family’s healthcare. Any & all questions or issues we’ve had are always answered and treated with respect and concern promptly. His office is equipped with everything including mammography, lab, and X-ray just to name a few. This amenities make our visits convenient and worthwhile during life’s busyness. It’s also a pleasure to see Dr. Nelms’ interesting personal photos in each of his exam rooms. Dr. Nelms definitely connected with us by sharing his stories in those pictures. Often our drug store requires additional Dr approval or insurance issues for prescriptions and within minutes Dr. Nelms’ staff handles the necessary details. We are fortunate Dr. Nelms has practiced medicine for 45+ years. All that knowledge and experience gives our family confidence and peace of mind. We often recommend Dr. Nelms to other family and friends without hesitation. Dr. Nelms & his staff get the job done!
