Physician, Assistant Professor
Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation
Department: Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation
I am a board-certified physical medicine and rehabilitation physician who specializes in treating brain injuries. I see patients across the spectrum of brain injury, from sports-related concussions and headaches to severe traumatic and acquired brain injuries and disorders of consciousness.
When patients come to see me, they can trust that I will work collaboratively with them to customize a treatment plan that best fits their needs and values. I have extensive experience in both nonpharmacologic and neuropharmacological therapies to treat brain injury-related issues. I also provide baclofen pump management to help treat conditions like spasticity, and offer trigger point and botulinum toxin injections.
In addition to my clinical work, I’m excited to participate in research opportunities here at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. My background is in biomedical engineering, and I was active in research efforts throughout my training. I am also proud to help train future physicians in my role as a faculty member in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at The Ohio State University College of Medicine.

Overall it was a great appointment. I left being handed off to a partner in the practice that specializes in what Dr. Gutherie suspects if my underlying issue. I respect that he wanted to find the true root of the issue before trying to put a dressing on the symptoms.
