Dr. Chris Nelson is a native of Syracuse, NY, and obtained his undergraduate degree in ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Rochester. During his time as an undergraduate, he developed a passion for the medical field, so following graduation he worked as a scribe at Rochester General Hospital. He received his M.D. at SUNY Upstate, and subsequently completed residency in internal medicine at the University of Rochester Medical Center. After residency, he joined the faculty at URMC, where he splits time within the hospital medicine division - as a hospitalist - and the ED observation unit. He is excited to continue serving the Rochester community and is committed to delivering excellent patient care.

Ratings & Comments

At URMC, we believe that patients should be empowered to make the right decisions regarding their personal healthcare. To do so, transparency is critical. URMC partners with Press Ganey, to survey our patients about all aspects of their care experience. We are now putting this pertinent information at your fingertips by displaying star ratings for our providers along with anonymous patient comments on our website. This will help you make better-informed choices about how and with whom you seek care. Click here to learn more about the surveys used to generate this vital information.
