I frequently recommend Dr. Joseph Nelson to others and I also recommend Dignity Health. One of the many strengths of Dr. Nelson is his bedside manner and the time he takes to ensure that I am feeling heard and cared about. I hope he never gets to busy to stop caring and taking time for his patients.
