About Me
As a primary care sports medicine physician, my specialization focuses on a non-surgical approach to a wide array of musculoskeletal issues for all ages. I believe in working closely with my patients and providing them with a multitude of options that allows for more highly personalized care plans. I emphasize the importance of prevention and strive to help my patients create long lasting healthy and active lifestyles. My goal is to provide my patients with all the necessary knowledge and assistance on their journey back to normal activity.
I enjoy working at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center because of the philosophy of individualized care that’s shared among providers. Having access to a vast network of resources and specialists ensures that our patients receive the highest quality care available.
In my free time, I enjoy watching sports, spending time with my friends and family, traveling and staying active through various sports, running, weight lifting and yoga.

Dr. Larry Nolan is an exception provider. More physicians NEED to mirror themselves like him. He's easy to talk to, LISTENS & always is ON TIME, courteous & respectful. Ohio State should be very thankful for providers like Dr. Larry Nolan!

Dr. Nolan listened attentively to the description of my injury, and explained the treatment options. He should get a 10+ but the scale does not go that high.
I only saw this doctor 1 time but he was very nice and very caring. He also explained to me the procedure he had to do on my left knee. I was referred to him by another physician. Doctor Nolan is very outstanding.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Nolan. I am in great shape, and I bring my notebook with exercises I am doing, supplements I am taking. He interacts with enthusiasm and genuine interest. I feel empowered by him to work harder, eat healthier and the results are clear,. I sought him out and looked at 3 other providers, but when I had my first visit I knew he would be a great partner & advocate for my health. Dr. Nolan is why I choose a doctor of osteopathic medicine, deeply passionate, hands-on, treats the body as a whole entity. I shout it loud to whoever I know that want the best.
Helped me immediately.

he made me very comfortable
Wow! Dr. Nolan was wonderful. He had definitely read my chart and already looked over an X-ray and sonogram taken at the hospital. He showed my the X-ray and explained what he saw. He gave me a steroid shot, which is what I'd hoped for. He could not be sure what was wrong with me and I was moving out of state 3 days later. He also ordered a Rx for me. He said I could call him from out of state if my problem did not resolve and the pain continued.
very good, listened intently, and examined my problem and gave me the routes we would take to help me feel better. He was very good and very nice.
Dr. Nolan is a professional, but also a very caring physician & you certainly feel like he listen to "ALL" you say.
