About Me
As an obstetrician and gynecologist, I believe in meeting patients where they are to provide evidence-based, patient-centered care. My patients can trust me to be their advocate and I bring compassion, honesty, respect and confidentiality to every encounter.
I provide well-person exams, treat patients during pregnancy and offer contraceptive care. I perform minimally invasive gynecological surgical procedures and hysterectomies and treat patients for conditions such as endometriosis and sexual dysfunction.
My clinical areas of specialty include LGBTQ+ care. I provide general gynecologic care for gender-diverse patients and hormone replacement therapies for gender affirmation. My research interests include post-operative outcomes for gender-affirming hysterectomy.
The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, and especially the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, is like a family. The pursuit of excellence in patient care is inspiring, and I appreciate the support I’ve received both personally and professionally from my colleagues. There is no better place to work. I’m also proud to help train medical students and resident physicians in my role as an assistant professor.
When I’m not working, I love spending time with my partner, Kenneth, and our hairless cats. I also enjoy political activism and volunteering, conservation, aquariums, cocktails, vacationing, cooking, and spending time with friends and family.

Very good
Dr Turner is the best OBGYN I've ever experienced. I deeply trust him and his medical judgement and don't have anything negative to say about him
One of the best I've ever been to. Listened to all my concerns.
Dr.Turner was wonderful in listening to me and addressing my concerns with my last pregnancy. He has made me feel very hopeful that this pregnancy will be full term and I'll be provided the care that I deserve.
Dr. Turner was warm, listened very well, and explained everything thoroughly. Truly one of the top physicians I've encountered.
Good
Dr. Turner is fantastic, taking the time to step by step go through the process of the surgery and taking the time to answer any questions I might have about it. He is always respectful and I feel that he will do everything he can to make sure that I get the best care possible.
Amazing! Wonderful personality and a thorough explanation of next steps for care.
Always top notch. No bad experiences so far.
He is amazing, took time to explain everything to me in a form I could understand
Dr. Kale Turner is above and beyond the best provider I've ever seen in any capacity. I felt safe with him from the second I met him. I've never had a provider spend as much time getting to know me and my medical background. I felt heard, validated and affirmed. He was beyond wonderful. I also feel extremely confident in his medical expertise.
Dr Turner truly cares for his patients. He's kind and caring and always takes time to listen and talk about any concerns you may have
Always makes me feel comfortable
Positive attitude, kind and supportive
Dr Turner takes the time to get to know his patients. Listens to your concerns and is a great provider
Dr Turner was the perfect blend of knowledge, compassion and good humor
Dr. Turner is wonderful! Terrific sense of humor and super knowledgeable!
Good
I am so impressed and so comfortable with Dr Turner and his staff that I have recommended him to 2 other family members with some complex issues they need assistance with. I talked to him briefly about them and he told me he'd be happy to see them. He gives time and attention to his patients. I wish I had a PCP like him. Mine definitely is not.
Kale made me feel very listened to, and not judged at all.
Good
That were pleasant, empathetic, patient and took time to explain everything.
I feel like Dr. Turner is the best OB I've had. He truly listens and is on top of everything in a very professional and research-based way.
Very nice and happy guy.
The doctor is excellent. Best obgyn I have ever had. Knowledgeable, friendly, very respectful, very caring.
Great experience! Dr. Turner was funny, knowledgable, and made me feel completely comfortable. I previously had a not-so-great experience with another provider when I lived in another state to do the same procedure. This experience was TOTALLY different and Dr. Turner had me in and out of the room in no time!
Dr. Turner is the best gynecologist I've ever had by leaps and bounds. He is intentional and receptive, taking my needs and preferences into account without reminder. Possibly the best doctor I've ever seen! I've already recommended him to two different people looking for new providers.
He is covering for my OB so he was okay for the cover appt but would not want him to be my full time OB. Bed side manner was subpar and you can tell he doesn't have a ton of experience.
BEST PROVIDER EVER. Took amazing care of me and made sure I was comfortable during the procedure.
Dr. Turner really listens and validates and cautions appropriately. He is smart and funny and deeply empathetic.
Was a nice stress free visit about personal matters
He was understanding and listen to my concerns along with going into detail about what he would recommend.
Good
My care provider was Awesome loved loved loved his energy as soon as he hit the door. Nurse wasn't even out room for a half a minute and he came in ready and prepared. Had already read all my history, listened and just very comfortable with me and wasn't all awkward. Told several of my friends about him and was glad I took a chance on someone new! Excited about him being my provider
Best of a kind! Should have come to Dr. Turner soon!
Dr. Turner is a phenomenal physician. His genuine concern and compassion for his patients is clearly visible. He is a true asset to OSUMC.
Dr. Kale Turner was one of the best dr. I've ever had! Very nice & understanding & knowledgeable. Went over everything I wanted & went over everything that needed to be gone over and made it very understandable!
