He joined OHSU as an Interventional Neuroradiology fellow and Radiology faculty in 1994, was Neuroradiology division chief from 1996-2006, and has practiced a combination of pediatric and adult diagnostic and interventional neuroradiology throughout his 30-year career, 27 of which are at OHSU.

Dr. Nesbit has published over 130 peer-reviewed manuscripts in both disciplines and recently published a chapter on pediatric cerebrovascular disease in the Handbook of Clinical Neurology. He has been invited as a speaker regionally, nationally, and internationally on a variety of topics. He has also served as a principle or co-investigator on numerous trials in conjunction with the Oregon Stroke Center and other divisions of the Departments of Neurology, Neurosurgery, Otorhinolaryngology, and Radiology and continues to enjoy the collaborative environment at OHSU.
