About The Provider
Nicole Nelson, PA‑C, is a pediatric gastroenterology provider at Primary Children’s Hospital, in Salt Lake City Utah where she cares for children and teens with a range of digestive conditions.

As a provider, Nicole’s philosophy of care is simple and heartfelt: she listens with intention, treats every patient with kindness, and helps in any way she can. She wants families to know she is always happy to listen and believes the best care happens when providers, patients, and families work together to create a plan that fits their goals, values, and everyday life.

Nicole Nelson didn’t just provide care—she honored my preparation. I arrived with my ER report and a list of questions, and not only did she address each one with clarity and compassion, but she also asked to keep them. That moment felt like a quiet affirmation: my voice mattered, my advocacy belonged in the record. I never felt rushed. Her presence was calm, focused, and deeply respectful. I left feeling safe, informed, and genuinely cared for. In a system that often demands too much and offers too little, Nicole stood out as a provider who listens, partners, and dignifies the patient’s journey. She’s the best.
