I would like to take this opportunity to comment on my experiences with NELCO that I have had over the past 15 years. NELCO has done a great job with all aspects of the work, from the timely installations, knowledgeable installers, and well-manufactured products. On numerous occasions I have recommended NELCO’s door systems and shielding products to many of the Elekta clients that I deal within Latin America. NELCO has always been a reliable resource. Throughout the years we have built a great level of trust. NELCO continues to be an asset for me on many of the projects that I am involved in.

We were in a situation requiring a quick turnaround on shop drawings and finished product. Shop drawings and the door frame arrived exactly when promised. The shop drawings were complete, very well done and there were no delays or missed communications during the delivery process. Project Manager Glenn Casey was particularly helpful during the ordering process and continues to provide information needed during the construction phase of the Linear Accelerator building. Thank you so much for your help with our project. Your company has been added to our bid list and we hope to do business with your company again in the future.

I wanted to take a moment to thank you guys at NELCO for an excellent installation job out here in NC. John Kligis led the effort to install our new BrainLab IGRT system, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with his work. John was professional, organized and left nothing to chance on our installation. John stayed on top of everything from the deliveries to the contractors, and the whole thing went from start to finish without a hitch. He was accommodating to our clinical schedule, and we suffered no delays of missed treatments as a result of his hard work. I’d like to just say thanks again to all of you guys, especially John. It was a real pleasure to work with NELCO.

NELCO was selected as the subcontractor of choice to supply N-HE-5 Linac Swing Door System for VARIAN LINAC Project National Cancer Hospital in Hanoi, Vietnam. The project was a large lead project and Schmidt was very proud to be the main supplier of this project. NELCO had coordinated their work with our service engineers closely and brought any issues to us in a timely manner to get a resolution in the soonest time. The professionalism of their staffs, accompanied by their commitment to quality and safety, is to be commended. The National Cancer Hospital and Linac Project was definitely a large, complex shielding project and its success could not have been achieved without the partnership between Schmidt and NELCO. NELCO was a very professional company and we look forward to future opportunities to work together.
