Elin Nelson, RN, CNP
My specialties:
- Maternal and fetal medicine (high-risk pregnancy)
A referral may be needed for this provider.
I enjoy seeing women for their prenatal and postpartum visits. My practice goal is to help women understand and recognize both the high risk aspects of their pregnancy, as well as the normal changes many women experience.
Our perinatal team works together to care for families. I see women both in the clinic and during hospital admissions.
Hometown: Mankato, MN
Best part of my work or a patient visit: The best part of my position is getting to see women progress through their pregnancies and then follow up with them post delivery.
How I spend my free time: I am fortunate to have three beautiful children who keep me busy playing outside, baking treats, going on bike rides and much more.
