Love Dr. Samelson! As a nurse who works for Tahoe Forest, I am sometimes over critical of the own care I receive as I know the standard of care. But Dr. Samelson and his staff always go above and beyond and I absolutely love getting my care at his office. Probably the best primary care physician I've had in my adult life.
