About Me
As a sports medicine physician, I provide evidence-based, individualized care and take the time to get to know my patients and their unique conditions. I have found that educating individuals on their course of treatment and building confidence in the patient-physician relationship leads to the best outcomes. Because I’ve experienced several injuries throughout my own sports career, I’m better able to relate to what my patients are going through. I love seeing people improve and return to the activities that they love.I enjoy working at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center because of the special camaraderie that is shared among my colleagues. I also enjoy the opportunity to work with the next generation of physicians through various stages in the learning process.
In my free time I enjoy going to local sports events, concerts, the Columbus Zoo, local breweries, watching movies and spending time with my family and friends.

Dr. A. is very calm & explains things easily. Takes the time to talk to you as long as needed about all developments & questions before examining; only negative is he is sometimes hard to get a hold of on non-family medicine days.

Dr Albrechta was relaxed and informative, I did not have the sense that he was rushed. He seems genuinely interested in providing good care. Also, he had a suggestion about how to find the best price for a prescription that is not covered by my insurance.
