About Me
I am a pulmonary and critical care physician treating all types of lung diseases, with an emphasis on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). I serve as the medical director of the Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program at Ohio State Outpatient Care East, where my team and I design personalized exercise programs to help patients with chronic lung diseases improve their quality of life. I also regularly care for critically ill patients in the intensive care unit.
My patients can always expect an individualized and compassionate approach when they come to see me. I aim to provide the best medical care while also empowering each patient to take an active role in their care as we work together to achieve their health goals.
I strive to help my patients adapt and manage their chronic lung diseases in positive ways. I have a research and clinical interest in the role of mindfulness, which encourages us to live in the present moment. This practice can help us notice patterns and behaviors and can be a powerful tool for healthy behavioral change.
When I’m not working, I enjoy going for walks and relaxing with my family, practicing yoga and reading.

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 09/30/2024, Dr. Black has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
