About Me
As a family medicine physician at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I am passionate about caring for patients and optimizing their health. I practice the full spectrum of family medicine, providing care for all individuals from newborns to geriatric patients.
I specialize in men’s and women’s health, adolescent medicine, health promotion, mind-body practices, preventive medicine and disease management. I provide treatments for arthritis, diabetes, asthma, anxiety, depression and other conditions. I love helping my patients to stay healthy so they can achieve their goals in life.
I enjoy the community here at Ohio State, and the resources for patients are outstanding.
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling, reading, cooking, exercising and listening to music.

Dr. Palmer (and medical student Jad, working a rotation with her) were both excellent -- Jad came in first and worked through my symptoms initially, then reported back to Dr. Palmer who came in and completed the visit. Dr. Palmer is among the two BEST PCP that I've worked with at OSU (since early 1990s), and she gave me good information about possibilities for my symptom set, ordered some lab tests (which she followed up after automated release to MyChart), and then ordered a prescription for me as one treatment route (after lab test results came back)
