Dr. Nielsen is a very nice provider who genuinely cares about her patients. Even though it was my first appointment with her, she made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend her to my family and friends.

Dr. Nielsen is wonderful. She sits and listens to all of my questions and offers thorough explanation. I recommend her to anyone in need of a GYN. Dr. Nielsen went above and beyond at this visit by holding my upset newborn so I was able to get vitals and change for the visit without having to worry. She is one of a kind.

The visit felt rushed and the bare minimum. She wasn't rude but didn't give any real opportunities to ask questions just did not feel like I was given thorough care. The exam was very minimal.
