Biography
As a physiatrist, I specialize in physical medicine and rehabilitation, specifically non-operative spine care and electrodiagnostic testing. I particularly enjoy meeting and talking with my patients and identifying the best way to assist them in achieving their highest levels of function and quality of life.
I believe that all patients have distinctly unique backgrounds and life situations. When formulating a treatment plan for a patient, it’s very important that the treatment techniques are flexible as well as specific to each person.
The teamwork and multidisciplinary approach, as well as the multitude of resources available here are what make my job at Ohio State so unique and special. I also have the expertise and support of many talented colleagues.
In my free time, I really enjoy spending as much time as I can with my family. I also enjoy reading, as well as spending time outdoors.

Thorough & efficient
First rate; knowledgeable
Very knowledgeable and thorough.
This was my 3rd nerve test and without a doubt the best one I have had! This doctor explain what I need to do, what he was doing and why. I felt at ease before, during and after I left. I felt he cared about me. Wonder doctor!
Dr. Vetter was fantastic. The tests he completed were nearly painless-he strives to make patients comfortable. He was honest, thorough, knowledgeable and kind. A wonderful, wonderful doctor.
Dr. Vetter listened very carefully and even took the time to check literature on my prescription to answer my question and confirm his immediate response, rather than give me a general answer.
I had a nerve test done. Normally they only do two limbs at a time. Because I traveled 2 hrs to get there, & I was the last appointment of the day, he did all four. I really appreciated not having to split it up & make a return trip.
This doctor also was outstanding, extremely knowledgeable, patient and converging for my condition.
