Physician, Assistant Professor
Primary Care - General Internal Medicine
Department: Internal Medicine
As a primary care physician, I love what I do. This quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson, 'Adopt the pace of nature, her secret is patience,' best describes how I keep pushing through hard times because I strive to be my best every day.
I enjoy developing a long-lasting doctor-patient relationship with each of my patients. Throughout their medical journey, I lend a listening ear, help them manage complex medical care and give helpful advice.
At Ohio State Wexner Medical Center, I’m lead physician for the Ohio State Transition of Care COVID-19 Clinic as well as an assistant professor for the Division of Internal Medicine. Apart from patient care, I spend much time teaching medical students and residents because passing knowledge on to future generations is an important aspect of working in an academic medical center.
In my spare time, I love reading, traveling and exploring various parts of the world, cooking new cuisine and spending time with my lovely family.

Dr. Bhat is outstanding. I feel very fortunate to have her as my PCP. She is aways friendly and professional. She listens and seems very concerned and interested in what I am feeling, thinking and my reason(s) for the visit. I really feel that she is working with me - that I can ask for what I need and (assuming it is reasonable) she will assist.
