About Me
As a family medicine nurse practitioner, I am responsible for the treatment of all kinds of conditions, disorders and diseases. My focus is on urgent care and acute illnesses.
I believe in providing the most medically appropriate care to each patient and making sure that they understand why a certain treatment is being utilized, or in some cases, omitted. I believe that if you take the time to truly educate people on their health, they will always have a better outcome now and for future illnesses.
I love being in a position to help people manage or cure acute illnesses or point them in the direction of the appropriate provider who can manage their conditions. I’m also on a personal mission to link every patient with a primary care provider – I cannot stress the importance of primary care.
I chose to work at Ohio State because of its prestigious reputation. Now that I’ve been here, I stay for the people. I’ve truly never worked with a better group of people.
When I’m not at work, I enjoy spending time with my husband, three kids and three dogs. We love to be outside and do anything together. My little boys have been getting into hockey so it’s always fun to watch them play.

Sarah Hartfield had not seen me before. I usually see Dr. Donald Mack. I had been at the ER with concern @ heart problems. After my heart checked out fine, it appeared my problem might be acid reflux. Sarah gave suggestions of raising head of the bed. I wish she had also mentioned a wedge pillow, and if she had known how carefully I watch my diet, it would have helped me to know that the problems might be that a valve doesn't close tightly any longer and is not something I am doing wrong. She wasn't likely to know that on our first contact.
Good visit.
Excellent service - no complaint.
