Biography
I am James Harper, MD, and I specialize in diagnostic imaging and radiology. My practice at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center focuses on neuroradiology, with particular expertise in imaging of the brain, spine and the head and neck.
Patients should feel confident that their imaging is being interpreted with care, precision and attention to their individual clinical story. My goal is to provide high-quality, clinically meaningful interpretations that help patients and their care teams make informed decisions.
I am drawn to the complexity of advanced imaging, where detailed interpretation can have a significant impact on diagnosis, treatment planning and long-term outcomes. I take pride in being thorough, thoughtful and collaborative, working closely with referring providers to answer important clinical questions and guide the next steps in patient care.
