About Me
As a family physician, I believe in providing care that is patient-centered, evidence-based and focuses on primary prevention of illness as the root of health. My role allows me to build long-lasting relationships with patients and their families in which I can see changes over time to ensure my patients' needs are being met. With each case, I try to provide cost-conscious and cost-efficient patient care.
I joined the Department of Family and Community Medicine at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in 2019. Here at Ohio State, I am privileged to work with world-class physicians and educators who help make a positive impact on all my patients. Additionally, my patients have access to outstanding resources in the Ohio State network such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, psychology, pharmacy and social work.
Besides providing excellent primary care to patients, I work with medical students as a volunteer at an Ohio State clinic where I provide personal instruction and supervision.
I'm originally from the San Francisco Bay area but have lived in Columbus for seven years. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, golfing, watching Cal football, traveling and spending time with my wife Shauna (a pediatrician at Nationwide Children's Hospital) and young daughter.

Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
As of 09/30/2024, Dr. Schord has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
This was my first experience with Dr. Schord. I transferred my medical care to him from another physician (at a non-OSU practice) because Dr. Schord was highly recommended by several friends. As a gay man it was important for me to find a physician who supported LGBTQ patients. Dr. Schord is very sensitive to my needs and issues, and has a lot of experience treating people in my community.
Dr. Schord is great. He is very thoughtful and explains things really well. He has been my PCP for a few years now and he always remembers the things we talked about and is proactive in addressing any concerns I have. He is also really clear with me about any time he may or may not be the best expert to answer a question; for example "Well, here is my opinion on (fill in the blank), but that is not my area of expertise, so I would refer you to the sleep clinic for a more informed answer."
Everything fine
