Biography
As an endocrinologist at Ohio State, I specialize in type 1 diabetes. I believe in personalizing my care approach to help patients adapt to life with diabetes, rather than only focusing on long-term glucose levels (A1C values), writing prescriptions and a quick discharge. I think it's important to help people understand the reality of living with type 1 diabetes.
I am working to develop a comprehensive program where people with type 1 diabetes feel they have a clinic that cares about them as a person. I want to help my patients adapt their regimen to their changing lifestyle. In addition to developing the clinic dedicated to adults with type 1 diabetes, we are also developing community-based activities and programs. Our goal is to have networking opportunities throughout the Columbus area for people with type 1 diabetes and their families.
One particular focus for our program is helping the young adults transition to college then to life after college. In addition to serving as an advisor on the national level for the College Diabetes Network (CDN), I also provide support to Ohio State’s chapter of CDN which helps to provide peer and social; networking to our college students living with diabetes.

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.

Listening, helpful
Good questions, demonstrated great knowledge about my condition
I was impressed that viewing blood sugars she could Tell I had some items happening in my life and asked me about that. She recommended a psychologist familiar with T1D.
Caring, quick and knowledgeable
I was in pain for three days after my visit. I would never let her look at my eyes again. I'm just grateful she's not the one that will be operating.
Fantastic
Outstanding, Dr. Wyne is one of the best. Her bedside manner is outstanding. She understands me and my everyday life. OSU is lucky to have her.
Very good
Fantastic coordinating with staff and trainees.
I like her very much
Dr. Wyne has gone out of her way to be available and supportive when I needed it. She is VERY knowledgeable about type 1, and has been helpful across a number of dimensions.
Dr. Wyne fallowed a routine that was easy to get all information needed. With out missing perinate information.
Zero bad experiences. It was fantastic. I've been avoiding having an endocrinologist because of bad experiences and this team completely reversed my perspective on my care with their high quality services and attitudes
Knows me (even amongst thousands of patients). Offered clear advice and guidance and followed up with referral to another experienced clinician.
Very good and very down to earth and personable
She was very informative and helpful
Very good experience with the care provider
She was awesome. Very knowledgeable and explained everything.
I thought Dr.Wyne was wonderful, as well as Jenna Scudder, who educated me on the Dexcom G7 and the newest Omnipod monitor. Both spent a lot of time with me, since I was a new patient. I very much appreciated this. Thank
Dr. Wyne is the best!
Just fine. Good
OMG, Dr. Wyne is wonderful! She is sooo knowledgeable, caring, and friendly! She has done more for my diabetic care than any other doctor I've experienced. I have recommended her to several people. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Wyne and Amy James (Pharmacy)!!!
Very pleased with doctor Wyne. She was very helpful
This was my first visit and I was very satisfied
She was very nice and considerate to me I had to wait an She was very happy to see me and considerate to me
Dr. Wyne talked to me more about cats - the animal - more than my health concerns. She did not order an "HBA1C" test, routine for type 1 diabetic. Also, dismisses my concerns for other auto immune/endocrine dysfunction and requests for additional testing. I'm concerned as a patient that she only cares about "routine" check-ups to get paid - complete waste of my time/money.
