Infectious Disease Associates At the Mass General Hospital

Sandra B. Nelson, M.D. consulted with me about precautions and restrictions I should adhere to when I was placed on the immune suppression medication Remicade. She was kind but authoritative in her recommendations: I tried to negotiate an occasional reprieve from the raw oyster ban (see my review of Neptune Oyster for proof that I’m a huge raw oyster aficionado) and she gently told me «No f’ing way.» However, when I told her I wanted to travel to Laos, she didn’t skip a beat — she outlined the problems and possible solutions and advised me to consult the MGH travel clinic and to come see her for a detailed review of my options. She was sensitive to the fact that I was an individual with a life to lead before I was a patient and went out of her way to treat me with respect and attempted to ameliorate the difficulties thst my new medical régime had foisted upon me.
If you need someone with Infectious Disease experience, you won’t go wrong if you make an appointment with Sandra B Nelson. Thank me later.
