I'm in my 7th decade of life...and have experienced numerous dentists. Dr. Nelson is the best. Gentle, thorough, reasonably priced, and genuinely cares about his patients. Through the years he has taken me through crowns, removals, and made excellent referrals for root canals and minor surgery when needed. I appreciate that he does the cleanings....not the hygienist. I highly recommend this top notch - 5 stars dentist.
