He’s very understanding he takes the time to explain things to you in Laymans terms so those of us who have no idea about how the brain works. He can explain it in a way so we can understand what he’s trying to tell us. I would abShow moresolutely recommend Dr. Neeson to anybody that needs help in this area of Neurology.
We had a long wait but what we found was a doctor who was caring and willing to spend extra time. That is hard to find these days.

We really appreciate the high level of care and attention that Dr Niesen has for our daughter. Dr Niesen is the first doctor we have encountered who treats our daughter as she is his own family member. We are very touched.
As a parent, I have known Dr. Niesen for over 25 years. He has treated both of my daughters, one of whom is a special needs person, over the years. Dr. Niesen is a professional neurologist who is an expert not only as a pediatric neurologist, but as a caring and responsive caregiver. I highly recommend him. His services as a physician are invaluable.
