About Me
As a physician assistant at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center’s Hand and Upper Extremity Center, I am passionate about providing exceptional care to each patient I see. I regularly care for patients with hand, wrist and elbow injuries, and treat conditions like trigger finger, carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel syndrome.
My goal is to help people return to the activities they enjoy, and my patients can rely on me for support throughout every step of their journey to recovery. Taking the time to listen to a patient and understanding their goals and daily routines is a critical component of my practice. I pay attention to every detail and customize the treatment plans to ensure each patient achieves the best outcome possible. I also strive to empower patients to take an active role in their care by creating an environment where they feel comfortable asking questions and participating in the development of their treatment plan.
The incredible interdisciplinary group here at Ohio State manages hand and upper extremity injuries from start to finish and I am proud to be a part of this team. The collaboration that comes from working at an academic medical center drives clinical excellence and truly makes a difference in our patients’ lives.

My health care provider was very professional kind and answer any questions I may had during the appointment. She gave me instructions on how to exercise my hand and massage the surgical area so the scar tissue will soften
Kristin and everyone in this office are FANTASTIC! So impressed with the care and concern of the staff in this office.
