Biography
As a certified nurse practitioner, I am passionate about helping women feel more comfortable during their Ob/Gyn visits. In my role in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, I perform Pap smears and treat patients for conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), abnormal uterine bleeding, and infertility.
When patients come to see me, they can trust that I will listen to their questions and address all their concerns. My previous work experience in the neonatal intensive care unit, where I treated sick and preterm babies as a bedside registered nurse, deeply inspired me to do all I can to help my patients have healthy, full-term pregnancies.
Here at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, the access to resources and to the best specialists is unparalleled, and it’s a privilege to be part of the team. I also appreciate the commitment to education, and my role includes mentoring nurse practitioner students.
When I’m not working, I love playing with my two sons. I enjoy practicing yoga and traveling.

Danielle was kind, understanding, did a good job making this visit a little easier
Danielle is literally the BEST NP ever. I adore her. She is funny and smart and thoughtful and I am so glad I see her from my gyno needs.
The provider was respectful to me and respected my privacy. She also explained everything to me and answered all of my questions.
Unfortunately, my cervix was tilted so she couldn't insert the IUD. I was given several choices moving forward. I chose to return at a later date to try again
Danielle did a wonderful job with my IUD procedure. I was a bit nervous and she made me feel comfortable. She is an asset to your team!
She is amazing and truly listens. You feel at ease with her immediately
Gave me a lot of good useful information. She didn't "rush" through the appointment. Made me feel very relaxed and comfortable. She was extremely pleasant and friendly. She explained everything she was going to do during the exam before she actually did it.
Amazing. She's my favorite care giver that I see
Knowledgeable and friendly
My care provider is informative and fun. She gives me so many opportunities to ask her questions.
Provider was very personable and gave great explanations.
Asked for pronouns and never misgendered me which made me feel very respected. Explained my options and how they work including possible benefits and side effects and what my insurance would likely cover and what would likely be out of pocket. Helped me decide what would work best for my lifestyle.
She was very thorough. The appointment never felt rushed and I thought she was awesome!
Excellent experience with Danielle. She had read my file and used the information to make recommendations. Very personable and "present" for my appointment.
I'm very happy with my provider!
Always so kind and charismatic
This was my first visit at this office. Danielle was very pleasant, knowledgeable and professional.
I really like that she knew what was happening with me when she came in, which meant she reviewed my chart first. She was very caring and concerned about how I was feeling. She wanted me to know that if I had any concerns about any part of my health, I could let her know. She is a great provider.
She was incredible. She made me feel at ease. I have never felt so comfortable in an OBGYN office. She answered my questions throughtfully and completely. When a scary test result came up she said don't be concerned there are a number of false positives, we are going to follow up with another test, and sure enough she was correct.
Loved her! This was my first visit with Danielle, she took the time to listen to my concerns, she asked questions about my past medical history and we made a plan for future treatments together.
Danielle was sweet and listened well to my concerns. She gave good advice, and felt like a girlfriend to talk to.
Danielle was fantastic. No notes. This was my first time visiting and I felt at ease immediately and will be using her as my primary gybo
She was very good at listening and not being dismissive. She identified solutions she thought would work for me.

Danielle was wonderful! It was my first visit to establish care, and she made me feel very comfortable and was a very good listener. I feel really good about continuing my care with her!
The provider was nice but seemed dismissive of some of my questions and didn't back up her answers with specifics or research like my normal provider normally does.
Couldn't find something bad to say even if I tried. Met all expectations and had a great first visit with Danielle.

She's amazing! I can't stop talking about good she is and how well she listened to me and explained everything she could to me
Amazing! Explains everything clearly and with patience! I had seen others for my gynecological care and she is by far the most gentle and informative health care provider I have had, ever!
Very good! She listened very well and worked with me to make me more comfortable
Best gyno appointment I've had in 20 years. She was down to earth, listened well, easy to talk to, reassuring of my concerns, and had a good bedside manner.
Addressed concerns and offered choices and options, made me feel heard in those concerns
I feel like she really cares. She double checked something in my records and got back to me. I feel like she cares about her patients.
Danielle made the experience of going to a gynecologist as good as it could have been. She was extremely personable while also discussing my medical history. I was very scared of going to a gyno again, and now I am not.
Danielle built rapport with me easily and was thorough in her care. She gave me options for my care and was honest about what she most recommended, which I appreciated.
Very friendly and listened carefully. Gave me options for next steps that let me feel like I had some choice
Warm, engaging, listened to my questions
She was so kind and comforting for my first time in the office.
Good
First time visit, recommended by a friend. Appreciated her listening and answering questions based on my needs rather than to make money with treatment, tests, etc. Great personality and helpful.
Danielle was excellent! Provided me great information!
She was excellent, made me feel comfortable and listened to when my problems are.
Provider was personable, an exceptional listener and provided prompt follow-up for supplemental needs in connection with a visit-related health concern.
They are personable and open to conversation that can be hard to talk about. They provide a comfortable environment where I feel supported and able to be myself. It is a unique experience to have a provider who is thorough, have a sense of humor, and makes a sensitive/personal appointment more enjoyable.
She was very easy to talk to, very informative and interested in my health
All good. Professional; attentive; courteous.
Initial visit with her after moving to area. Very thorough reviewing my history and identifying plan of care moving forward
Danielle was wonderful. First time meeting her and her was very personable and I felt she was interested in me and my concerns.
Very understanding, explained everything step by step when doing exams and made sure everything was okay with me first. Great communication.
Danielle was new to me - as my regular doc (of 20 years) is on leave. Danielle was delightful, attentive, helpful, offered solutions, and asked if I would like referrals - which I responded "is that an option?" and "Yes Please!" She spent more time than necessary with me, listening to medical issues beyond her purview of expertise, and expressed empathy as well as solutions. I left the appointment feeling "heard and seen", which was incredibly important to me as a patient, and as a client of the OSU Medical complex. I have referred her name to a friend who is currently looking for a practitioner - after relaying my positive experience.
She was really friendly, educated me on my concerns and made sure I understood everything she was saying. She made me feel very comfortable which allowed me to relax as I was really stressed about the doctors appointment.
Amazing. I felt that she listened to me and was caring, compassionate, and addressed my needs thoroughly
She was absolutely wonderful. The gyno is an uncomfortable and vulnerable time but she sincerely made it fun and relaxed. She made me feel heard and was super comfortable.
Easy to talk to and great listener.
I really enjoyed meeting her! She made me feelImmediately at ease - she is a very genuine and likable person.
She was very personable and friendly. Very knowledgeable.
My care provider is the best. I drove two hours just to see her for my healthcare. She listens to everything I say and offers suggestions in ways that I can understand. She is very knowledgeable about different contraceptives and always makes sure I am comfortable with what she prescribes. She also always makes sure all of my questions are answered and I really appreciate that I never feel rushed during my appointment.
