He may be good, but he gave himself 5 stars on other review websites. So there's that...

Dr Nelligan M.D. performed meniscus repairs to my knee in july 2019 with a joint replacement option thru Disabled VA TriWest local option programs. After the operation he discussed possible need for partial joint replacement due to prior cartilage combat damage. He correctly determined the conditions but took the conservative approach. In Jan 2020 he operated again with a partial joint replacement when things didn't improve from the Jul 2019 procedure. I'm now healing well and thank John for his conservative approach. I couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you John.

Love this doctor! Over a few years of increasing pain primary care doc had tried twice to get an mri approved after he had me sent to the physical therapy Anthem ins. required before theywould consider an mri. Even after this insurance would not authorize it. So he referred me to Dr Nelligan. Nelligan did a thorough exam of my shoulder and neck. He explained insurance companies no longer approve such tests to diagnose a problem- only to confirm the problem after it has been acknowledged by the doctor in a physical exam and that surgery is needed to correct it So it’s a catch 22 if the cause of the problem is not glaringly apparent. He was not positive the rotator cuff was torn or that the mri would be approved but explained he would write the request in a manner that would have the best chance of getting the mri authorized. MRI approved, found hole in rotator cuff that Nelligan repaired and I’m now on the mend. Thankful for his expertise and great bedside manner. Highly recommend him!

Dr. Nelligan, Replaced my Knee. I had 2 subsequent surgeries 1- to clean and remove bone. 2 -Attempt to correct the perineal nerve which he cut. He did all 3 surgeries. I now have a "drop foot", to go with my destroyed knee. Then he leaves town without a replacement for his practice. I wouldn't advise utilizing his service for a cold. But he has a good bedside manner. oh, I forgot. He operated on me when his physical state was poor. He had surgery himself following mine. Either a bad shoulder or back. However I saw him limping after surgery. You don't want a impaired surgeon to operate do you. Painfully yours, Lawrence Luttman. Dr. Nelligan, Replaced my Knee.

Dr Nelligan did torn meniscus surgery on my right knee in January of 2013. I thought I would never run again. Its 2017 and I am 63. I ran a falf marathon (13.1) miles 4 months ago and am running a 10k next weekend. This Doc is great and really cares about his patients. You cant go wrong with Dr Nelligan. Surgery produced great results! Thanks Doc!!!!!! Steve Weldon

Dr. Nelligan, has an amazing bed side manner and is a phenomenal Ortho. Surgeon. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Nelligan spent the amount of time needed to answer all of my concerns in a very thoughtful way. He replaced both of my knees - 2 years apart. After the first surgery, I had no doubt who I would have replace my other knee. My recovery was quick and the outcomes were great. I'm grateful that Dr. Nelligan decided to practice in Sonora. I recommend him highly.
