Haven't been to the dentist in years do to mine retiring. The staff here is amazing and Dr Nelson is awesome. I am so glad this is my dentist now.

I'll tell you that a dentist is not merely a person, place, or thing. I cringe hearing people say, there's plenty of them, you'll find one no problem. No that will not do, I'll need all boxes checked on my list for my complete satisfaction, or else goodbye. We all have wasted time searching for the right dentist, but persistence pays off, do not compromise or settle.

I have only found two out of many that qualify and fit the term dentist. the qualified dentist who takes care of all my dental needs now, I would gladly refer everyone asking me, The Brilliant Dr. J. C. Nelson of Nelson Family Dentistry, and his fantastic support team, located next to Shakeys in the Fairwood Shopping area of Renton.

Nelson family Dentistry is the best dentist my wife and I have ever found. We travel 2 hours to get there and it's worth the drive. There is a friendly family feel to how they treat patients, but even more important is Dr. Nelson's ability as a dentist. My wife has had some issues that I wouldn't call average, but he and his staff have been able to take care of all her needs. I would highly recommend Dr. Nelson and his staff to anybody.

There are no words to describe how awesome this dental practice is. The fact that my kids are excited to see the dentist EVERY SINGLE TIME we go, makes this Mom's heart happy.

This dentistry is awesome! I'm very picky with my dentists due to having A LOT of orthodontia work done in my teenage years. They communicate during your cleaning, very nice, thorough but conscious of your time, and Dr. Nelson is great! The front desk ladies are incredibly nice and welcoming, excited to have found a dentistry this amazing!

Friendly and experienced staff from the front desk all the way back to the dentist chairs. Best cleaning appointment I've had in 10 years l. My previous dentist closed one of their offices I was going to for 10 + years on Mercer Island, so I decided to give my kids dentist office a try. Dr. Nelson is wonderful with my kids and I had the same great experience when I had my teeth cleaned. I've found my new dentist. Thank you Dr. Nelson and Staff!

Dr. Nelson is the best dentist I have ever been to, period. I hate everything to do with dental procedures. Dr. Nelson makes the processes smooth and comfortable. My procedures always seem to be minor emergencies, and he and his staff go out of their way to get me taken care of as soon as possible, never more than a day's wait, and they would have seen me sooner if I had wanted.

The doctor's manner is pleasant and painless. The staff and assistants are always friendly and helpful. In addition to being extremely professional and competent, they are all truly nice people. I like just talking with them on the phone! If you are like me and hate dental visits, I can't encourage you enough to get in touch with the good folks at Nelson Family Dentistry. They will care about you and take excellent care of you. You won't be disappointed.

Going to the dentist is not one of my favorite things to do. BUT Dr. Jacy Nelson has been the greatest. He is gentle, has a great bedside manner and goes extra miles to make sure you are comfortable. He does great work and you walk out SMILING!

Dr. Jacy Nelson and his staff are amazing. I'm am so thankful that they were recommended to me by a friend. After my first visit I immediately had my wife switch dentists and she feels the same way I do. They are always highly professional and very friendly. The office is easy to find and has plenty of parking. A+

Sorry I'm very late on this well deserved review but I wanted to let the world know that Dr. Nelson is AWESOME! A family member had an issue and he was willing to meet us after hours to look at the issue. Luckily his advice was perfect and resolve the issue without coming in. I applaud his willingness to see my family member and to followup. Every appointment has been absolutely great because his staff really cares. You're a true shipmate and I salute you and your team of professional Doc!

I have been a patient at Dr. Nelson's for a few years and I really enjoy coming to see them. They have a great hygienist who is gentle and friendly, and she doesn't berate me about flossing but reminds me why I should. Dr. Nelson is an avid hockey fan so we have that in common. While I haven't been a patient my whole life, I definitely feel like he is my "family dentist" and I enjoy coming to their office. They are in a convenient location if you live in Kent or Renton, about 5-10 mins from Valley Medical Center.
