Nelson Andy DDS

We’ve found the perfect dentist!
I recently took my kids and myself in for cleanings with Dr. Nelson. You park on the street in front of the office and there were plenty of spots for my mini van. The waiting room has a very hip, Mad Men-​ish feel to it. Mid-​century modern design and décor with some Seattle historic flare. Nice and big and had a ton of toys for the kids to play with while we hung out and waited for them each to get their cleaning which is totally important to me to have a family friendly experience. I have 3 kids so this is a priority to me.
The staff up front by the desk and the staff in the dental rooms were super nice to my boys. Made them feel really comfortable and made it fun for them. It was their first time so both of them (3 and 4 years old) were a little nervous but the assistant made getting their cleaning really entertaining and explained everything she was doing each step of the way. Dr. Nelson was so so nice to them during their exam and did a very thorough job checking for cavities. They both ended up doing a good job as first timers! My oldest boy ended up needing a referral to a pedodontist because he had some major decay that needed a specialist (bad mom for waiting so long to take him in!) and Dr. Nelson sent us to a fantastic one for his needs and didn’t shame me and make me feel worse than I already did about my son’s decay. Of course my boys were thrilled they got to have prizes from the treasure chest at the end. I’m sure getting them to go for their next check up will be come with no complaining. :)
My cleaning was another day and the hygienist did a great job too. She was friendly but didn’t over talk (I always think it is awkward when they ask me too many questions during a cleaning). Dr. Nelson has a really wonderful, calming manner and I can tell he cares about his patients.
So glad to have a great dental office that I can trust for my family.

Getting dental work done can be scary but Dr. Nelson and his staff make it an easy and quick experience! I would definitely recommend this office to anyone who is looking for a great dentist!

Absolutely the best dental experience I’ve ever had. The most caring and professional staff. Dr. Nelson is very thorough & gentle. The office is very clean & great location they even paid for my parking. Highly recommend to new patients looking for a great dentist!

My rating is not on the dentist or even the hygienist but on my overall experience. I showed up on time and they were running 35 minutes late which is too long for me to wait. The x-​ray person was very rough and I had to stop the procedure b/​c it was extremely painful. I have been going to the dentist regularly my whole life and have never felt like the wings were cutting into my mouth like this. The hygienist was excellent-​one of the best, and the dentist came in for a few minutes. Since I had no issues, I can’t really rate him. Given that there was no free parking, the office was old, and the hours were very limited outside of work hours, I will not be going back.

Dr. Nelson has served my whole family for several years. He has a wonderful, friendly, easy-​going personality that puts us all at ease. We really appreciate him!

Got my fist cavity after leaving the country for two years… But Andy was great! The procedure was quick and painless and I haven’t any problems since. I highly recommend him.
