About Me
I am a board-certified nurse practitioner specializing in family medicine. In my role at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I treat patients across the lifespan with an emphasis on preventive care. I provide annual physicals and see patients for acute illnesses such as upper respiratory infections and urinary tract infections. I help patients manage chronic conditions including type 2 diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, anxiety and depression. I also have a particular interest in women’s health and offer services like Pap smears.
I completed my fellowship in family practice here at Ohio State, and before that I worked as a bedside nurse, charge nurse and preceptor at the OSUCCC – James. It is a privilege to work for such an exceptional organization providing the highest quality care possible. I am also proud to help lead efforts to continuously improve patient care. In 2023, I presented before the Ohio State Advanced Practice Conference about best practices in hypertension management.

Nicole was amazing! I've had bad experiences with providers in the past at other offices, but Nicole was even better than I expected. She was very serious about my concerns and I could tell that she was invested in my well being.
Kind and explained all her concerns and was able to work with me on appointments
Nicole Donner is very professional & knowledgeable. She is an NP & I find her care and follow-up much more prompt & timely than physicians I've had in the past.

Good

Good
She was pleasant enough however. I did not get to talk about my health care concerns. My experience was she had a checklist to get through and that is what we were going to do. Anything else required another separate appointment. She also put a remark I made about some dental issues in the my chart record in all caps. Very demeaning and unnecessary. I was totally not aware I would be quoted in what I considered to be a private comment. She could have simply wrote - Patient declined looking in her mouth.
I love Nicole! She listens, does not seem to be in a hurry, answers questions and Is supportive and encouraging.
Nicole Donner is very thorough and seems genuinely concerned for my well being
Very nice and understanding. Took the time to listen to me and explained everything well. Made sure I felt seen and safe.
I've never had a provider listen and try to really understand my history like she did. She spent the time to really figure out the best course of action
Personable, encourages patient-directed care
Thorough and helpful, asked me to follow up with her on MyChart, if things went well with my illness. I will do so as my illness or cause for visit has improved due to her care.
Very knowledgeable and caring attitude.

Nicole listened well and made me feel comfortable. She was quick to address my concerns and put through referrals as needed.
Always more than adequate
Listened thoroughly, asked follow up questions, attentive and showed concern appropriately
Dr. Fisher answered all my questions and made sure I had what I needed before I left
She seemed to have negative impressions or stereotypes about some of the meds I take, namely a weight loss med and a sleep aid, even though I'm taking them as prescribed for fda approved conditions. It was also evident that she had not reviewed my medical record. Overall she was nice and the appointment was fine-I got what I needed-but I felt like I the appointment was impersonal and my history was unimportant. I did not get the impression that she was treating ME or MY needs just clicking buttons in the record and going through the motions.
Nicole was so kind and empathetic. She explained everything and went out of her way to ensure I got timely care for my concerns, and I am grateful for her expertise.
Very knowledgeable and helpful
