Dr. Lindsey Nelson, DO
Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine
Dr. Lindsey C. Nelson, D.O., joined the provider team in July of 2021. She becomes the first physician Henderson Health Care has hired since Dr. James Ohrt in 2006. Now the Chief of Medicine, Dr. Ohrt, said Dr. Nelson will give patients more healthcare options. “Dr. Nelson bring variety to Henderson Health Care. People like options. Certain people are drawn to certain personalities and characteristics and we owe our patients the choice to select the provider who is the best fit for them.”
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln graduate received her Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree from AT Still University Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2018. Dr. Nelson fulfilled her residency at Lincoln Family Medicine.
A native of Nebraska, Dr. Nelson is excited to return to a rural community where she can perform family medicine. “I knew very early on that I wanted to practice rural family medicine. Henderson Health Care offered the type of practice I was looking for. Full-spectrum family medicine is what really appealed to me. I’ve had great experiences with the Henderson Health Care staff and administration. It has been a really good fit for me.” She joins an experienced provider team consisting of: Dr. Vanderneck, Dr. Ohrt, Allison Bauer, PA-C, and Cortney van den Berg, PA-C, Joshua Reiners, PA, and Ronda Clark PA-C.
In her free time, Dr. Nelson enjoys sand volleyball, concerts, and of course, Husker Football. She and her husband, Justin, will soon begin construction on their new home in Henderson and are looking forward to being a part of the surrounding communities.
Patient Feedback
“I would highly recommend Henderson health care to anyone. I had my son at the hospital and the Doctor, and nurses were absolutely amazing! It was one of the best hospital stays I’ve had. I didn’t have one negative thing to say about my stay. Everyone was so friendly and helpful and I felt like they really went above and beyond for me and my family!”
