About Brandon Nelson, DNP, ARNP, FNP-C, BC-ADM, CCD

Biography

Professional Statement:

I became a nurse practitioner because I enjoy helping people. I developed an interest in the endocrine system early in my career because of its complexities and vital role in everyday life. I strive to offer comprehensive, holistic, personalized care that has a meaningful impact on patients' overall health and well-being.

Describe your average patient?

My clinical practice focuses on individuals with diabetes and metabolic bone disorders (osteoporosis, osteopenia, hyperparathyroidism, Paget's disease).

What would your patients say about you?

I am professional, empathetic, and a good listener. I prefer to talk with people, not at them. I try to be conversational and listen.

What is the ideal provider/patient relationship?

A relationship that engages in shared-decision making.

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?

I enjoy traveling, cooking, and college sports, as well as sharing a good cup of coffee with family and friends.
