Biography
I am a board-certified rheumatologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, with my outpatient practice based at Ohio State Outpatient Care East. I have particular clinical and research interest in anti-RNP autoimmunity including Mixed Connective Tissue Disease, and in inflammatory processes mediated by the danger signal sensor STING.
Prior to moving to Ohio State in 2025, I have practiced academic rheumatology and performed rheumatology research since 1997, and served as Chief of Rheumatology at other university and VA centers.

No issue
Dr listens and is incredibly thorough in his exam. While he didn't see what I thought he might, he was very open to it and willing to explain why he believes that my problem is not inflammatory. In the past, he has taken the time to go through previous imaging to be able to help dx appropriately.
Great
He's a good listener and responds great.
Second time I had saw this provider. He was more talkative and took time with me
He's the first rheumatologist who made me feel seen. Believed I was in the right place and didn't want to treat symptoms, he wanted to find the root cause.
Given that I have multiple health conditions, I made an extensive list of my various symptoms prior to my visit, not knowing if all or some were even pertinent to this appointment. Dr. Greidinger went through every listed symptom, noted things in my chart, discussed them with me, and thanked me for the information. Despite the tedious task of going through such a long list, he was kind. I felt heard and seen. I truly appreciate him.
Professional but seemed somewhat distant and not fully engaged.
Excellent
Dr. Greidinger was excellent. He was patient and understanding, he listened to my concerns thoughtfully, he explained things exceptionally clearly, and he allayed the concerns I had prior to the appointment. I truly appreciated his attitude, his professionalism, and his "bedside manner."
Dr Eric G. Is good and knowledgeable of my situation with gout or high levels of uric acid.
He was the first to ever allow me to see his notes, thoroughly explain an x-ray, show concern for additional blood work needed, and concern for certain medications I'm taking .
The doctor was amazing! He took lots of time with me, explained everything, listened to everything I had to say and after years of joint pain and stiffness, he finally gave me a diagnosis and a treatment plan! I'm eternally grateful for Dr. G.
He took time and listened to me. He figured out what problem I was having
Very helpful in explaining arthritis and gout and how to proceed with knee issues.
He was thorough in his explanation of my arthritis but not as knowledgeable about my fibromyalgia. He told me Ohio State doesn't currently have a fibromyalgia specialist, which left me to try to find one without any recommendations. That wasn't his fault. I just wish OSU had one. He scheduled a follow up appointment and wants me to wait to gave blood work and scans the week before my next appointment so we will have the most current data, which I think is very important and I appreciate that. He was respectful and I am grateful for his explanations.
He listens to me and made me feel like he was hearing me very pleased with this provider
He was very knowledgeable and listened carefully to my concerns and gave me good recommendations.
He understands my blood number are not normal but he doesn't give a clear diagnosis or direction what the next steps are
