I can not understand why anyone would give Dr. Nelson a bad review. I went to an orthopedic office, who is very good at trying to promote themselves in the NJ and Philadelphia regions, but I found out the hard way that they are not what they say that they are. I had a congenital hip deformity which resulted in my needing a total hip replacement at 40. The initial office I went to screwed up the hip replacement twice and it literally fell apart and I could not physically walk. I was eventually referred to Dr. Nelson, and he custom built a hip replacement in the operating room for me, when I was told by other doctors that there was nothing that they could do to help me. I would not be walking today if it were not for Dr. Nelson, and I feel that he literally saved my life. We are so lucky to have a surgeon as skilled as he is in our region.

I had my left knee done by him and he messed me up really bad now I can't get a doctor to do my right leg and I can't walk and he was really nasty to me when he found out what happened he stopped everything so I had nothing this was a week after surgery

Dr. Charles Nelson did the wrong surgery on my son THREE TIMES! His reviews are constantly shadowbanned. Do NOT let him operate on you. His bedside manner is beyond terrible, but his precision as a surgeon is even worse!
