Biography
I am a primary care physician specializing in internal medicine and pediatrics. I provide patient-centered care for individuals and families across the age spectrum from newborns into adulthood.
My goal is to work directly with each patient to optimize their health and wellness and prevent chronic disease. For patients with chronic health conditions, I ensure they understand their disease, help prevent progression and complications and collaborate with their subspecialists to provide the most comprehensive care possible.
As part of my practice, I see patients in several specialty primary care programs. One of those is MOMI PODS, which is focused on clinical dyad care for mothers and babies. I also work with the Center for Autism Services and Transition Program (CAST), which offers primary care for young adults on the autism spectrum.
In addition to clinical care, I am the associate director of Clinical Informatics for General Internal Medicine. I use my expertise in clinical informatics to collaborate with other clinicians and researchers. Our goals include improving use of the electronic medical record, data, and technology to enhance population health and patient outcomes.
I am also a clinical assistant professor of Internal Medicine at The Ohio State University College of Medicine, helping educate the next generation of physicians.
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two young kids, traveling, and exploring Columbus.

Consulting and Related Relationships

Friendly and kind.
I love them
This is the first provider I have had in over 5 years that has truly tried to help me with me physical and mental issues. She spends more than 10-15 minutes with me unlike my previous primary care doctors.
Dr Tobin is great. She also had a wonderful medical student with her (Jacob) he was very personable and did a good job with his initial assessment.
Pleasant experience very knowledgeable and professional
Dr. Tobin was wonderful! She took time to truly get to know me and my health during our first visit.
This was our first visit in which care was transferred from Dr.Brill (whom we have LOVED) to Dr. Tobin. I was a little nervous about the change because we've seen Dr. Brill for 8+ years and are very comfortable with her but I would say the transition was very seamless. It was evident that Dr. Tobin and reviewed Shepard's medical records ahead of time and I felt like she was very thorough and took her time during the visit.
Excellent, always willing to listen and explain to me in the best way, she handles my concerns and everything that is done to my daughter
I was impressed how nice, kind, empathetic, Dr Tobin was with me. I felt very comfortable with her, this is one of the best Dr experiences I have. I'm glad she is my Dr.
Provider is very nice and knowledgeable. I only had a couple minor concerns which I voiced and I felt as though they were not resolved or taken into concern.
Very nice, considerate of the age if child and potentially hesitancy if child, thorough.
Very good, very friendly
She asked good questions and never made me feel rushed.
