Patient
Dr. Nelson saved my life. I had two stents placed in my right coronary artery to increase blood flow. My right femoral artery was dissected when Dr. Haase came out my right leg with the catheter. I bled out at home, alone. I returned to the hospital five days later to find out through CAT scan that Dr. Haas had dissected my right femoral artery upon coming out with the catheter. Dr. Nelson(Cardiac Thoracic surgeon) performed emergency surgery to repair my right femoral artery due to another doctor's negligence. Dr. Nelson is an excellent surgeon and he performed a surgical procedure to stop me from bleeding out, and repaired my right femoral artery; all the while telling me "I don't know how you are alive,"after seeing the damage done to my right femoral artery.
