About Me
As a primary care physician, I am there to guide and educate my patients. Patients have a responsibility to themselves and their families to engage in their own care. I want them to be as healthy as possible. I also want to help patients manage their chronic disease and provide self-management support.
Although I practice complete family medicine, I have an interest in improving blood pressure control in the primary care setting. I’m also interested in sports medicine and health care policy.
What I enjoy most about The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center is the ability to be on the forefront of innovations in care as well as working as a team with other health care providers.
In my spare time, I enjoy attending Ohio State football games, traveling with my wife, playing with my dog, watching movies and running.

Knowledgeable of my medical history, prompt, willing to answer questions, and friendly.
Been a patient of Dr. Wexler for 20+ years - never had a complaint. Listens to me if I have a concern. Knowledgeable and professional.

None bad.
Love Dr. Wexler. He's fantastic.
I always get the sense that Dr. Wexler cares about me as a patient and is able to specify his recommendations based on my medical history, not just "Well It should be X, Y or Z".
He was pretty good, but could have offered other alternative solutions to my healthcare concern. Instead of suggesting other medications.
Dr. Wexler is always knowledgeable, kind and great listener!
Very knowledgeable
Always attentive, knowledgeable, and a great listener
Provider was willing to explain benefits/risks of a recommended medication; Provider took time to listen to all my health Issues, schedule bloodwork, provided my annual blood occult test kit and made referrals for specialists.
Did not listen to all concerns. Tunnel vision! Swollen feet and other abdominal pain area. Area concerns that should be heard when being seen for possible bleeding ulcer (repeating). Totally ignored expression of concerns - just referred out.
All top notch.
Dr. Wexler has been my doctor for over 20 years and I love him. He's rational and calm and also emotionally warm in a way that is comforting but not coddling.
