"I view the patient doctor relationship as a team. It’s my job to take the time to clearly and thoroughly explain each diagnosis and to outline all available treatment options. Together, we decide on the course of treatment and work closely to achieve the best possible result. My patients are like family, and I’m dedicated to being there for them during all stages of treatment."

I had knee replacement in April. This morning at PT my therapist noticed a spot in my incision that didn't look right. I took a picture and sent it to Dr Van Nielen via MyChart and he called me right away to come in so he could check it out. No waiting or worrying!

A superb surgeon who serves his patients with care and empathy. He explains in terms that are easy for a non-medically trained person can understand. Staff are friendly, too.

This was my initial visit with Dr. Van Nielen based on a recommendation from a friend. I was very favorably impressed by his office staff, clinical staff and him. They took the time to listen to me and help me consider my options for addressing my long time knee pain.
