While weight loss surgery can be incredibly effective for many individuals, not everyone is a good candidate.

You have a body mass index (BMI) of 40 or higher, with or without obesity related health issues.

I called today to set up a simple appointment to see if this type of surgery is right for me. They wanted $725 just to TALK to the doctor. Absolutely RIDICULOUS!!! I would not recommend someone so money hungry!!

I recently needed an emergency appendectomy. Normally, we use Cleveland Clinic and have not had much experience with the doctors here. I can not begin to thank Dr. Lars Nelson, Dan, Amanda. Also Bea, and Collette, the other nurses who took care of me and the staff at Halifax & ER for their superior care. Their amazing skill, compassion, understanding, time, and attention to every detail was astounding and I’m not an easy patient. I’m also in my 70’s and was out in 2 days. Don’t miss the opportunity to experience world class care here in Daytona. Thank you!

Had VSG Surgery 3/2018 by Dr. Nelson. Very happy with support, guidance, ease of reachability. The entire staff is very kind, easy to talk to and they understand. Clean facility and professional staff. Highly recommend.

Surgery by Nelson in early May. Been very happy with the team and the support care. I’ve been encouraged to call the office with any concerns, and they’ve been great about answering questions. Initially thought all the nutrition and psychiatric prep I had to go through (mostly required by my insurance) was a waste of time but I’ve actually felt more prepared post op than some people I’ve met who had the surgery elsewhere.
