Biography
In addition to treating sports medicine patients and athletes at our Ohio State campus location, I hold an appointment as an Assistant Clinical Professor and Director of Residencies in the Division of Physical Therapy at Ohio State, with a focus on sports and orthopedic physical therapy.
I am board certified in sports physical therapy and have been practicing since 1997 treating athletes of all levels of competition. I spent two years as a seasonal assistant athletic trainer with the New England Patriots and have worked with the United States Olympic Committee.
Outside of my clinical responsibilities, I sit on several national boards for post-professional physical therapy education within the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA). I am the 2008 recipient of the OPTA’s, “Physical Therapist of the Year” and the 2009 APTA Sports Section’s “New Horizon” award winner.

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 11/3/2025, Dr. DeWitt has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
