Physician, Assistant Professor
Urology
Department: Urology
I became a physician because I am passionate about using my skills to improve each patient’s quality of life. As a urologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I specialize in outpatient urology. I regularly perform benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) procedures and treat conditions such as scrotal disorders, erectile dysfunction and kidney stones.
The well-being of a patient is always my first priority. My patients trust me to deliver a customized approach based on their particular medical issues and preferences. There are many treatment options available for urologic conditions, and the decision to proceed with a procedure or surgery should be tailored to each patient.
After years in private practice, I chose to transition to an academic medical center because I was excited about the opportunity to advance medical students’ education in urology. Choosing The Ohio State University was easy. I was a student here myself and know the positive impact this institution has on both students and the community. I now serve as the clerkship director for the Department of Urology and I am committed to improving access to urology as a surgical subspecialty for students.
When I’m not working, I enjoy cheering on the Buckeyes! I also like hiking and running.

All good.
Great Staff !
Good experience
Barely looked at my issue seemed to be in a rush, and didn't really care about what I was trying to say. I've never dealt with this before, and it just seemed like it was routine to him and Like I was wasting his time by being in his office. I had more questions to get answered, but I felt rushed and was not able to ask the Questions that I had about my condition
He answered questions and gave me literature that I needed.

Up to date with my health date post surgery. Listened attentively to my questions and concerns.
Dr. Was on time, knew my history and gave me good information. Great visit.

Dr. Springer put me at ease and provided a very positive experience.
Very nice,talked about my health concerns. Very professional and has nice mannerisms
I had two appointments on the day in question. The first was imaging with contrast, and I had to drink a tremendous amount of water before enduring the procedure. The second was a cystoscope, and the doctor himself was outstanding, but the room wasn't furnished adequately for the doctors needs.
Very nice and Courteous.
