If I could give Dr. Neilson ten stars, I would.
Letter of Thanks to Dr Nielson from Father.
My 24-year-old daughter suffered for years from debilitating symptoms that affected every aspect of her daily life — chronically cold and sweaty hands that registered as low as 84°F, soaking night sweats, excessive thirst and dry mouth, and recurring hot flashes to her head and face. She was exhausted, uncomfortable, and honestly had just accepted that this was her life.
Then she found Dr. Neilson.
The micro ETS procedure was a complete game-changer. Her hand temperature went from 84°F to 98°F — normal, warm, human hands for the first time. The night sweats? Gone. The excessive thirst and dry mouth? Resolved. The hot flashes to her head and face? A thing of the past. As a father watching his daughter suffer for so long, I cannot put into words what it means to see her thriving now. She is a different person — confident, comfortable in her own skin, and full of life.
What makes this story even more meaningful is that I am not just a proud father — I am also a former patient. Fifteen+ years ago, Dr. Neilson performed the same micro ETS procedure on me, with a very similar outcome. I know firsthand the life-changing difference this surgery makes, which is exactly why, when my daughter began struggling with the same symptoms, there was never any question about where we would turn. I trusted Dr. Neilson with my own health, and I trusted him with my daughter's. That says everything.
Dr. Neilson's skill, precision, and genuine compassion made what felt like an overwhelming decision feel like the most natural and right choice we ever made. Every step of the process was handled with professionalism and care. We are forever grateful.
I also have to give a very special mention to Ed Lee, who drove us to every single appointment and to the airport. Ed is the kind of person who restores your faith in humanity — warm, reliable, and genuinely invested in my daughter's wellbeing. He wasn't just a driver; he was a calming, caring presence during a stressful time for our whole family. Ed, you are one of a kind, and we won't forget your kindness.
If you or someone you love is suffering and considering this procedure, do not hesitate. Dr. Neilson and his team are extraordinary. We are living proof — twice over.READ

Sweaty
Hands (Palmar Hyperhidrosis) Testimonials
Dear Dr. Nielson,
I can't sufficiently express my
appreciation and eternal gratitude for having successfully cured
my " sweaty
hands". After experiencing an unsuccessful ets surgery with
another doctor I was fearful that this surgery wouldn't be successful.
Fortunately I was wrong!!! Thanks to your ets procedure I am now
able to shake hands without fear & shame. You have ended a
life time of misery and despair & I will never be able to thank
you enough . . . Forever grateful, Monica

Face,
Head Sweating (Facial/Scalp Hyperhidrosis) Testimonials
Dr. Nielson,
Briefly, I had significant facial HH for much of
my life. In the late 1990's, well before HH and ETS were
well known. I researched the subject extensively and discovered
ETS and your proficiency in this clinical procedure. You
successfully performed the procedure on me, and my life is
FAR better as a result. I am now a faculty member at a one
of the most prominent public research institutions in the
U.S., and I suspect this would have not been possible without
your intervention in my HH affliction.

Armpit
Sweating (Axillary Hyperhidrosis)
Dear Dr. Nielson,
Hello, how are you?
It was very nice to meet you. I am just writing to thank you for
changing my life! Getting dressed every morning has become so much
easier as I no longer have to choose colours or fabrics that will
disguise / absorb excessive
underarm sweating for the day. I also don't have the
problem of staining my clothes with sweat anymore, as my underarms are
now almost completely dry. I can now wear the colours that I
like, instead of the blacks, navies or whites that I was limited
to in the past. I can even go deodorant-free for the day! READ

without being in any pain. You have changed my life and from the bottom of my
heart I just wanted to say how thankful I am for you, for everyone of you . .

Sweaty
Feet (Plantar Hyperhidrosis) Testimonials
Dr Nielson,
Thought I'd drop a line to let you know how things have been since! The very
best thing is I can lay next to my husband at night. I rub my feet up and down
his legs. My cats before I would have to brush them they shed so much it was
just horrible! Now I can scratch and play with them. Before I was always cold
always wiping the water from my hands with soaked socks! Now my feet are dry!
Yea! I've sweat a little across my belly when I got out in the heat but thank
goodness I did and it felt so good for my feet and hands to be dry as the breeze
blew by! . . . READ

Raynaud's
Disease, Cold, Numb, Painful Hands or Feet Testimonials
Dr. Nielson & Staff,
It has been six months since my micro ETS surgery and I want to give you an update.
I honestly never thought that you could give me the relief that you did. I am
symptom-free. I have my life back. I have my confidence back. And I am warm.
On your website, the testimonials are primarily geared toward patients with hyperhidrosis.
I had Raynaud’s. Note the word “had”. Thank you for pioneering
this research and surgery. I cannot express my appreciation and satisfaction.
If God forbid, I need the surgery again - you will be the first & only person
I call. As I run into people with my past symptoms, I tell them about you. And
if you ever need a referral for a future Raynaud’s patient - please give
them my number; (available upon request). Again, I hope that you understand all
that you have given back to me. I am eternally grateful.
Always - Jeff Easterbrook READ
