About Me
As a doctor of nursing practice at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I manage and treat patients who are suffering from heart failure. When it comes to patient care, I believe in educating my patients on their conditions and emphasizing preventative medicine. I’m passionate about my career because of the many opportunities and methods that I’m able to use to help others every day.
My favorite part about working here at Ohio State is the academic atmosphere and the strong focus on research, which directly impacts patient care.
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time playing with my dogs, doing yardwork and playing golf.

Cheerful, knowledgeable about my medical HX and what the next steps in my care should be. Made sure I got the referral to another specialist I need.
He did a good job answering my questions. I also had a minor problem with my ICD and he was able to arrange a visit from the Medtronic tech while I was there. Problem solved.
Jeffrey Thorne is A+ in our book. He recommended I be admitted to OSU Ross right away but also offered alternative treatment. OSU was the right call.
