Dr. Brian Nelson

“Second surgery after failed ablation. Excision of deep infiltrating endo from ovary, front/back of uterus, bladder, Pouch of Douglas, and bowels. ~3 hour surgery. Recovery ~6 months. Over a year post-op with significantly improved quality of life. Did not personally meet Nelson until ~2 weeks before surgery — saw NP for consultation. Nelson noted to seem rushed/tired during appointments but is a skilled surgeon. NP described as exceptional — spent an hour+ at consultation. I would recommend doct”

“Dr. Nelson performed excision surgery, hysterectomy, left ovary removal, bowel resection, appendectomy, and ureter repair in a single operation under 2 hours. Found endo was far more extensive than prior gynecologist had noted — present on diaphragm, rectum, appendix (near appendicitis), left ovary fused to colon. No complications post-surgery. Patient reports no endo pain or ovarian cysts in nearly two years. Dr. Nelson advocated with insurance to cover the surgery and waived remaining costs. D”

“Surgery went well; stage 2 excised including all peritoneum in pelvic cavity. Patient part of the 20% who did not feel significantly better after surgery. Symptoms lingered requiring months of recovery and ongoing PT. Clinic continued to work with patient post-surgery; progesterone helping. Patient would not change decision because they got answers and the root problem was addressed. Referred patient for MRI that identified May-Thurner syndrome. The surgery went well and they excised stage 2. Ho”

“Patient had a pre-op with Dr. Nelson and found him patient and informative. Excision surgery scheduled for that month. No post-surgery outcome reported. I just had my pre op with Nelson and he was also patient and informative. My excision is this month. I have a pre op set up with him on the 6th but he wasn't there for my consult.”

“Patient is over one year post-op and doing 'SO much better'. Doctor performed excision (not ablation) of endo and scar tissue plus total hysterectomy. Patient is very grateful. Doctor did not judge based on patient's age and prioritized what was medically best. A little over a year post op and so so thankful for the surgery. Dr. Brian Nelson with UC Health in Longmont, CO, is one of the few doctors nation wide that will do an actual excision, not ablation, or endo tissue. And he didn't care what”

“Patient reports significant relief from both surgeries. Doctor was kind, compassionate, and believed the patient without gaslighting. He did my last 2 surgeries and I have gotten so much relief from them. He is very kind and compassionate. He believed me completely. No gaslighting.”

“Patient is extremely happy with results. Describes surgeon as thorough and awesome. He was very thorough with his surgery and I am extremely happy with the results. Totally recommend him!”

“Patient had appointment with Dr. Nelson (or his NP) to discuss excision surgery but was blocked by insurance going out-of-network. Reports that Dr. Nelson was able to help another patient significantly. Patient is willing to wait until next open enrollment to get insurance that covers him. I had an appointment with Brian Nelson (or at least his NP for now) to discuss excision surgery.. and my insurance decided he is now out of network. I am absolutely gutted by this. I'm so glad Dr Nelson was ab”

“Dr. Nelson was able to excise all endo found; patient feeling hopeful post-surgery Dr. Nelson was able to excise all the endo he found and I'm feeling super hopeful. I have my excision with Dr. Nelson on the 4th! He's been great so far.”

“Endo confirmed via laparoscopy and cystoscopy. Fibroid not removed; patient intends to get second opinion on that decision. I had my surgery(laparoscopy and cystoscopy) today with Dr. Nelson in Colorado and I was so convinced I didn't have it and scared they wouldn't find anything. Dr. Brian Nelson is who I used and his office is in Longmont”
