Dr. Nelson is the best vet in town. He's patient, informative with reasonable rates. He has a candle in the lobby to let people know if someone is grieving a loss in one of the exam rooms. If you're looking for a vet, he's your guy.

I love Dr. Nelson and his staff. I give them a 10 star! Dr. Nelson is very gentle and genuinely cares about your fur babies. His staff is super friendly and compassionate about what they do. I would not take my babies anywhere else.

After a bad experience else where, I found this wonderful Vet Clinic. The staff was more than friendly and made sure that I was taken care of. Dr Nelson was very pleasant and took care of my kitten as if it were his own. I expressed my concern of the price of the medication as they offered me alternative meds that might be cheaper and even offered a script where I could get it on my own. It was a 6 months supply and I was thinking or planning for three. After a little research it really was not that much different so I kept it with them. I was impressed on how they were accommodating to my needs
