Meet Nelson

I am originally from North Carolina. I relocated to the University of Cincinnati after an academic career at Emory University in Atlanta and joined Mercy Health in 2012. I am trained in endocrinolology but for years have completed research for osteoporosis, bone health and calcium disorders, and limit my clinical practice to osteoporosis and related disorders.

I am thrilled with the time and effort dr watts put into explaining osteoporosis in general and my specific condition!!! I never expected such an in-depth analysis and explanation. I have shared his name with many of the friends.

Dr Watts is a world renowned physician in this therapeutic area and that was clear during the visit.
April 2024
He is a very caring doctor who offers great detail regarding the impact of various treatments. He also addresses the risk profile for a particular medication and compares it with the experiences of patients, with which he is familiar from research. He performs a DEXA scan connected with each appointment, and he determined this time that the current medication was not being as effective as he would like (in relation to fracture risk reduction). He didn't allow me to linger on the current medication but suggested two other treatment options, one he clearly saw as preferable. The one he recommended instead is also one that my primary care doctor said she would have asked about/suggested.
