      I've worked in many medical offices, hospital lab (pathology, autopsies, Paps, etc) , family medicine, hospital medical records, neurology, neurosurgery, psych. If i didn't like Dr. Nielson I would have moved on. I've work with very bad doctors and excellent doctors. I consider Dr. Nielson an excellent doctor.
