About Me
As a transplant hepatologist, I specialize in treating all forms of liver disease. When a patient comes to see me, they can rest assured I’ll be there to support them during their treatment, and, if necessary, before and after their liver transplant. I’m passionate about providing a patient-focused individualized approach. Liver disease is a complex health condition and I strongly believe patient education and caregiver involvement help to improve patient outcomes.
I commonly help patients manage cognitive disabilities related to advanced liver disease. My research is focused on hepatic encephalopathy, which is a form of cognitive impairment linked to chronic liver disease. I also have an interest in taking care of the elderly population with liver disease, as that specific population needs a more nuanced approach especially when it comes to liver transplantation.
I chose to continue my career at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in part because of the commitment to diversity and values. Everyone here is devoted to providing the highest quality care possible and I’m proud to be part of the team. I also find teaching medical students and residents to be a gratifying experience.
When I’m not working, I love spending time with my family and our dog, Jasper. I enjoy traveling and exploring new restaurants with my spouse.

I have seen him twice now and he has been very helpful and explained everything to me in a way I understood
Pleasant and professional
Dr Acharya is amazing and always has my best interest at heart. He goes out of his way to help, answer questions, and help care for me. He is truly an asset to OSU.
I was very pleased
Care provider answered all my questions, however, during the visit he looked at his watch many times. He never indicated I was taking too much time, but looking at his watch made feel like I was taking too much time.
Absolutely amazing! He was so kind! Wish he could be my Gastroenterologist.
Listened to concerns, explained things and ensured I understood
Longer wait then expected, but good care from the doctor. Offered to order blood test. But I told him I was going to the next day from local doctor order.
Doctor explained in understandable detail of findings on MRI, and he established a plan for monitoring and follow up.
Good

1st time seeing Dr.Archyra it was the best visit I've ever had period!! Would send my whole family to see him thank you Dr Archyra
I was referred bu my primary care doctor because of elevated liver em=nzymes. Dr Chathur explained completely and carefully what might cause this condition. He further explained how he wold proceed with my case. I recieved a telephone call and My Chart message from him explaining blood work findings.
No wait, answers questions, shows interest in my care.
He questioned me about my health and checked the results of blood tests.He suggested that I no longer take Cellcept because it has been almost 18 years and my body has accepted the liver transplant
Knowledgeable, understanding and professional

The dr. was very nice. I really felt comfortable with him as my doctor because he asked questions and was very focused on my answers and kept asking if I had any questions about what he told me. The dr. messaged me on MyChart in reply to a phone call to the office, and it was the nicest message. He did answer my question I called about. I will refer everyone I know there! Awesome place to go for a doctor!
