      Dr. Nelson saw me on an emergency basis about a bump in my genital area. She was so pleasant and thorough that I asked if she would be my permanent gynecologist. I am going back to see if the bump (probably a cyst) has resolved and for and annual pelvic exam.

      Dr. Nelson was phenomenal and one of the main reasons I made the decision to begin my OB/GYN care at John's Hopkins. She was considerate of my feelings and was very knowledgeable when it came to the questions I had regarding my condition. In addition to that, Dr. Nelson has a very calming sport about her. I instantly felt at ease. She followed up regarding a lab test like she said she would and provided sound advice and clear next steps. I will recommend her to friends and family!
