I unfortunately have DDD, bad genetics, and have had a long medical career since the age of 16--as a CNA, a medical assistant, and an RN. Many years of lifting/bending, and schlepping. I ended up working in surgery-- which is how I met Dr. Nelson. When the pain came to a head and injections were no longer helping, I knew exactly who to go to. Dr. Nelson is casual but confident, off-the-chart intelligent but down to earth, and easy to talk to. Surgery is not a trivial thing to him, he will make sure a patient has explored all other avenues first. I have undergone two successful fusions by Dr. Nelson, one cervical, and one lumbar. I can honestly say that I could not have received better care anywhere. Thanks to him, I am now taking my boards to be a nurse practitioner where I will continue to recommend him and his team with all of my heart. Sincerely, Jodie Ferguson BSN

If I could give 0 stars or - negative stars I would!…read more Went to see Dr. V for the first time today. What a complete waste of time! The worst bedside manner. Dismissive. No concern or empathy. My total visit with him lasted 10 minutes at best. After 2 prior cervical fusions, my imaging shows severe stenosis on the right, moderate on the left, a herniated disc above my fusion, and 2mm slippage of my vertebrae at flexion and extension. My symptoms include numbness in my right hand, tingling in the back of my neck and the side of my face, and ice pick headaches in the back of my head. His response was "those symptoms don't correlate with that level. Surgery is a 50/50 chance if you'll do better. You can get another ablation or steroid shots. But degeneration is normal as we age." Maybe we can explore this as a cause: Occipital neuralgia: This is a distinct condition that is often triggered by cervical spine issues, including herniated discs. Occipital neuralgia is caused by the irritation or compression of the occipital nerves that run from the upper spine to the scalp. It is characterized by sharp, stabbing, or electric-shock-like pain that can feel very similar to an ice pick headache. Or how about it can absolutely cause the symptoms I have: A herniated disc at the C3-C4 level of the cervical spine can cause various symptoms, including: Pain: Sharp, shooting pain in the neck that may radiate down the arm into the shoulder, hand, or fingers Pain that worsens with certain movements, such as bending the neck forward or backward Numbness and Tingling: Numbness or tingling in the shoulder, arm, hand, or fingers Pins and needles sensation That was it. Off I went with the name of a chiropractor and different pain management doctor. I'm sorry but there's nothing normal about the symptoms I'm feeling. So if it's not from that level, let's figure out where it's coming from and fix it. He was absolutely horrible. I've been dealing with this for 10 years and I've never experienced a doctor who could not care less about helping. Stay away.

I have used Dr. Jones a couple of times…read more 1) I had a double hernia about 20 years ago. He had fixed it up and gave me the short term limitations (lifting) which I followed and to this day, no problems. 2) Just recently I had a ruptured appendix and went to ER. I was fortunate to pull Dr. Jones to do this cleanup and fix. The rupture was extensive and most of the work was to clean up the bad stuff in my abdomen. He had to use over 3 liters of saline to clean out the rupture so I did not die from being septic. Whilst in the hospital, he did swing by every day to check and chat. He listened to everything I said and asked, then gave clear answers/directions. A close friend of mine is a nurse that knows Dr. Jones and said I was fortunate to have him to address the rupture as he is meticulous in his work and has always been a highly regarded surgeon in the medical community. I am here writing this review due to his quality standards.

Doctor Richard Fox lives fully up to the name "dick". He's got all of the personality of a dead…read morerodent and just about as much charisma. His bedside manner includes mocking patients for feeling pain. Pain that would not have been a problem had he not botched the surgery in the first place. A 'one hour surgery' turned into a ten hour sit waiting for the patient with no word of their condition. The patient was then sent home without a functioning oxygen bottle, constant pain, and two drains in their side. Due to the lack of functioning oxygen, the patient was rushed in the middle of the night to the ER. A phone call to the doctor resulted in no apologies, but further mocking. Why? Because the doctor had forgotten to turn the bottle of oxygen on, and, rather than accept the blame, pointed the finger at those untrained in the use of the bottle. The drains, over time, began filling with blood. 'Oh, but a bit of blood is expected' says the quack. But it wasn't a "Bit of Blood" it was a pool. Over the course of a month, the victim - no longer a patient - bled profusely into these drains, with constant pain, being told she was the "princess and the pea" by doctor dick. On November 12, a full month and several days after the initial surgery the victim woke in the middle of the night, swimming in a pool of blood, screaming. After being rushed by ambulance back to the hospital for a SECOND TIME, she was asked (and I quote) 'What the f*** are you doing back here.' Followed by the "doctor" attempting to re-dress the bandages, and as he walked away, a second bleed out began. Turns out, the moron nicked the pancreas, and didn't say anything about it. Pancreatic fluid, as we then learned, is much like undiluted stomach acid, and ate through the splenic artery, resulting in the victim nearly dying. Twice. During all of this, the victim couldn't eat and keep the food down. She was laughed at by Fox multiple times, and told "i don't know." Oh, and he gave her his recipe for a brisket. Silver linings. Come to find out when a real doctor took a look, that her stomach had swollen from all of this. Third time nearly dying. But hey, he's sure proud of that quarter inch of functional spleen she still has.

It took a month to close the finger wound which was not a good outcome of my poor choice. This winter I had a worse but similar insult to the same finger so I did go to the ER and their efficient care of the finger allowed it to heal properly. This time we made the same choice for a smaller ct on a different finger and it has healed extremely well. From the moment I arrived, bloody hand wrapped , I was treated efficiently and politely, from register g window to assessment to treatment. Clerical staff and medical staff are well trained. On 1 visit, I actually needed an MD but the most recent used a PA who did a fine job. The various techs who were used to clean the wounds as well as remove stitches later were also efficient and accurate at task. I am lucky to have this fairly near by, though not as close as when BCH had the facility right in town. Back then it was a much shorter distance for my family, especially when transporting one of my children. But progress requires more and different space and with this facility accessible to a few highways it is better for the greater community that has moved to the suburbs of Boulder. Since I have good insurance and have used this facility in the past. They can process my emergencies quite quickly. There were other patients in line too, some with far greater injuries so appropriate that they were taken even more quickly and were served by the discs. Broken ribs from bicycle incidents have been other cases with priority both times. Such a Boulder situation so be careful out there!

The ER physician misdiagnosed the symptoms as 'psychosis' and arranged for me to be placed on an M1 hold and transferred to Cedar Springs Hospital psychiatric institution in Colorado Springs later that day. This assessment was not competent and was gravely in error. Two days later, on July 23, 2025, I was transferred to the UC Memorial Health Center ER in Colorado Springs by ambulance from Cedar Springs Hospital and placed under intensive care due to asphyxiation from choking on vomit during tonic-clonic seizures. The staff at Cedar Springs claimed I had fallen and hit my head at their facility, which my care team at Memorial Hospital was able to find no evidence of. I was put on a ventilator and a tracheal tube was inserted. By that point I already had pneumonia. To quote an MD from the Memorial Hospital case notes on July 23, "The specific organ or organ systems failed or in danger of failing were Cardiovascular, Neurological, and Respiratory." To quote his colleague on July 24, "Patient's condition is life-threatening and without ongoing intervention would deteriorate." A third Physician on July 26 noted, "BH [Behavior Health] evaluated him and he is NOT gravely disabled and does not meet any M1 hold criteria," and, "This pt [patient] has Epilepsy." This was the neurologist who observed the tonic-clonic seizures on EEG. I was discharged from Memorial Hospital and sent home later that day. Respiratory failure and tonic-clonic seizure are known to cause permanent death of brain tissue and irreversible injury to the brain. They should have just sedated me and put me on EEG, that's not hard or expensive. But I guess then they don't get to bill the insurance for as much. Would not recommend.
