Patient Reviews
Jun 13, 2021
Dr Nelms was a fresh surgeon when I had my first hip done with Dr Howe in 2012,{at age48} I had no doubt that Dr Nelms would be doing my second hip. On 6/11/21 he did , he offered a new approach that between us decided it would be the best for me. same great time spent in the office, same wonderful staff waiting to answer ANY questions, his nurse Norma is wonderful. I will be recommending this group still for hip conditions. I just don't have the space to write how happy my husband and myself feel about Dr Nelms and his staff, if you have any issues with your hips, do not wait ! THIS IS YOUR TEAM ! you will never regret it!
