My appt with Dr Nelson was very pleasant and productive : she was very attentive, interactive and focused on what I presented to her- offering a plan to correct my problem, but also discussing follow up if my issue was not resolved. She did instill trust, so I would visit her again.

Dr. Nelson has given me hope that my back pain can truly improve. Her professionalism, knowledge, and incredible bedside manner set her apart. She is thoughtful, intentional, and takes the time to answer every question in a way that’s easy to understand. I never feel rushed, and I always leave feeling informed and confident in my treatment plan. TOA is incredibly lucky to have her - she’s by far the best physician I’ve seen for my back and a wonderful example of the next generation of doctors.

What a great experience with Dr.Nelson. She wanted to know all that was going on, asked questions and sympathize as she had been through a similar situation as what brought me to her. She also encouraged me that we will find a solution to my pain without meds hopefully and get me back to normal life.

I definitely recommend Dr. Nelson. She is very knowledgeable and takes the time to make sure to explore all options to get to the source of the problem, not just mask it temporarily. She makes sure you understand what's going on and walks you through the process. I feel like I'm heard and that's important.

I came early so I waited a bit longer, but was okay. I love the Clarksville office as there are some of the nicest & friendliest people I have encountered lately. Dr. Lauren Nelson is very nice & extremely knowledgeable in what she does. She is doing all she can to keep me from having surgery. I am 76 years old & really DO NOT WANT SURGERY!! If she can help me with the pain, numbness, & tingling in my legs & hands without surgery, then I’m happy!

Dr. Nelson was great! She listened to my issues with my back and then explained what she thought was best. She also called me on a Saturday to check out how I was doing and recommended that I go to the emergency room for treatment. I don't think that a doctor has ever called me on a weekend to check how I was doing!

TOA has been wonderful for all my husband's injuries from Army duty. Now I am having spine fusion surgery. Dr. Nelson, my surgeon, is amazing. Her calm and thorough explanation of my options put to rest any anxiety I was feeling. We made decisions together after she explained procedures and possible outcomes. She was focused on my desires as well as best practices. I couldn't ask for more!

I am six months post-op from a cervical disc fusion at C5–C7 performed by Dr. Lauren Nelson, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. I am virtually pain-free, have minimal scarring, and my quality of life has been completely restored. I’ve returned to my normal daily activities without limitations.
Dr. Nelson is truly exceptional. She is caring, attentive, and takes the time to thoroughly explain everything without ever making you feel rushed. Her professionalism and compassion made a significant difference throughout my recovery.
I highly recommend Dr. Nelson to anyone in need of an orthopedic specialist—she is simply the best

Dr Nelson was perfect in how she handled
My surgery. She was calm and not patronizing, she explained everything and answered all
Questions, and was very positive on the day of surgery. I feel like I had a perfect recovery because of her expertise with my surgery. She gave me all the right processes to heal, and I truly feel cured of the injury, after following her suggestions on how best to recuperate. I barely have a scar, and am
Able to do everything I used to do. I highly
Recommend Dr. Lauren Nelson as a spinal surgeon.
