She was very professional and personable at same time . I was having wrist pain for nearly a year and I was putting a brace on it. One of my patients saw my suffering and referred me to Dr. Kate . It was a busy clinic but I waited. It was worth the wait and I was seen evaluated by her NP then Dr. Kate. She listened and offered me an injection. I mentioned to her that I had an injection previously by another hand specialist and it didn’t work. She said it might need another one and this time she will go a little deeper. I gave her my full trust. During the injection, I heard a pop. I have asked her , may I know why it popped . She said there was some trapped gas since then I felt better , I was not wearing my wrist brace . I’ve called it a “miracle pop”. and we had a laugh.

I visited Dr. Nellans on July 30/24 for a problem with my wrist. I was experiencing pain for over a month. After some X-rays and explanation of symptoms, Dr. Nellans was able to identify the problem and find an immediate solution. Dr. Nellans is very knowledgeable and experienced in her field. She is very pleasant and has great bedside manners. The office wait was only 10 minutes and everyone was very nice and professional. I highly recommend this office and Doctor.

Dr. Nellans has been my hand specialist for a number of years and I would not switch, she is great. She listens to my concerns and we address them as a team. Her staff is fabulous too. Would recommend her to anyone that needs a hand specialist.
