“psoriasis condition with arthritis”
I came here after relocation from Hurricane Florence. My arthritis was flared and my skin was inflamed due to stress. Dr. Nelson helped me get help with Humira. During the initial time my insurance said she was no longer able to be my doctor. Her staff called me and said this was a mistake. I was so pleased with her ability to understand my needs and trying to help me get an expensive medication. I followed up and cancelled the other Dermatologist and came back here.

“My Wife and I both agree”
My wife and both new to Manassas, VA had individual appointments with Dr. Nelson the same day. When comparing notes at the end of our day we both agreed that we both really liked Dr. Nelson's personality and style. We laughed together and just an all around enjoyable experience. I must also mention the her assistant Elizabeth who is a perfect match with Dr. Nelson in providing medical care. I've been back numerous times now and Dr. Nelson keeps things on first name basis. Thank You,

“Efficient, Professional, Helpful”
From the moment I walked in the door until the moment I walked out I was treated with respect and professionalism. Dr. Nelson really listened to my concerns and spent more time with me than most other doctors. I did not feel rushed or pressured to tell my issues fast so she could get to her next patient. I was seen on time and felt like Dr Nelson and her staff valued my time and me as a person / patient. I highly recommend Dr Nelson and her staff.
