    Doctor Nelson shared why he specializes in in endocrinology bcz he has type 1 diabetes. He was very open n gave me his medical journey. Do u know he committed to univ of Kansas medical after high school graduation. Never knew there was this type of program. He specialized in pediatric as well as adult. We getting 2 for the price of one. He was hopeful that maybe one day in future I could wean off injecting insulin. What great hope.

    Maybe because we are still New to each other, but he is not as open to talk to, it's very quiet during the visit, only a few words here and there, more on laptop than really conversing with the patient about the visit and answering questions..the 2 times that I've seen him I feel like I am in a visit waiting for him to speak, toward the end of the visit and it's over
