As Children’s Bone & Spine Surgery is the only exclusively pediatric orthopedic surgery practice in Nevada, this dedicated group of professionals was a natural fit when Neusport set out to provide our parents and athletes with a resource in the event of an injury. With the expertise of Dr. Jason Nielson, Neusport not only found the perfect practice to turn to for injury treatment, but found a willing partner in creating training and conditioning programs to help prevent injuries in the first place.

Dr. Jason Nielson moved to Las Vegas after completing the only pediatric and adolescent sports medicine fellowship in the USA at Harvard’s Children’s Hospital. Under the tutelage of Dr. Lyle Micheli, one of the fathers of adolescent and pediatric sports medicine, and many the many highly-trained surgeons at Boston Children’s Hospital, Dr. Nielson is trained in treating acute and overuse injuries in the young athlete and children. As a covering physician of the Boston Ballet, Dr. Nielson also has a keen interest in dance medicine and hip arthroscopy.

Dr. Nielson holds an undergraduate degree from Brigham Young University. He completed medical school at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 1999. He trained as an orthopedic surgeon at Montefiore Hospital in New York. He has been recognized at each level with awards of excellence. He has published many scientific articles and has written numerous chapters on orthopedic, sports, and dance medicine topics.

Dr. Nielson is the only orthopedic surgeon in Nevada with a sub-specialty in pediatric and adolescent sports-related injuries.
