About Carol Dodson
Johns Hopkins Clinician
Background
Carol Dodson, C.R.N.P., is an adult geriatric nurse practitioner at Johns Hopkins Community Physicians. As a medical provider, she enjoys helping her patients through a partnership that includes support and management, which allows her patients to better participate in their own level of care. She believes this often leads to a stronger foundation, as well as an increased potential of success.
N.P. Dodson's career began in critical care, where she spent more than 17 years. In 2017, she transferred into primary care as a nurse practitioner working specifically in the community with assisted living and rehabilitation centers. It is here where her fondness for working with geriatrics grew. When she's not caring for patients, N.P. Dodson enjoys cooking, reading and spending time with her husband and two sons.

Carol is a grand asset to my care team. She knows you, makes you feel welcome & listens to what is bothering you that day! She will order test if she feels they are necessary. She relates to you the results of your test and gives you the best options to attack your problem to get you back on your feet so you can go about living again!!

Carol was very generous with her time, spending 40 minutes with me, precisely what she had allotted, and just what was needed. She is very knowledgeable, practical, and helpful. She is accessible through MyChart and promptly responds. She is a real asset to Johns Hopkins.

Then nurses, and other workers are duper when the patient meets with them. Carol Dodson has really brought me a long way from my first visit to now. I would never leave thin place. The only way I would leave Johns Hopkins is it Carol Dodson would start her own office.

Carol is absolutely amazing she is compassionate and very professional yet makes me comfortable to tell her exactly how I'm feeling and ask any question. She reviews my medication list and blood work and tests in terms I can understand I rely on her highly as my provider and friend. She has a positive outlook and we enjoy chatting and having a laugh together. We will beat this cancer. She already is my savior having acted immediately getting me to surgeon for biopsy. I absolutely love her and so happy to be her patient for years to come.
