Physician, Assistant Professor
Primary Care - General Internal Medicine
Department: Internal Medicine
As a primary care physician, I take pride in being my patient’s first contact in their health care journey. I am committed to being their advocate and a collaborative partner in wellness. My goal is to build trusting, long-lasting relationships with my patients and their families.
I am board-certified in internal medicine, and I am a Certified Diplomate in Lifestyle Medicine. I focus on caring for the whole person, not just on treating immediate symptoms. I believe in preventing disease through early intervention, educating patients about healthy habits and empowering them to live their healthiest lives.
My practice includes providing care for acute medical issues, helping patients manage chronic diseases, addressing mental health concerns and offering preventive screenings. I also offer therapeutic lifestyle interventions to address the root causes of many chronic conditions.
Beyond the clinic, my role includes helping to educate and mentor medical students and resident physicians. I’m an assistant clinical professor of Internal Medicine, and a unit director, in The Ohio State University College of Medicine. The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center’s commitment to advancing health care locally and globally inspires my work every day.
Outside of medicine, I enjoy listening to music, exercising, cooking healthy meals and exploring nature trails. I grew up in northern India and speak Hindi, Punjabi, Kannada and Urdu, in addition to English.

Pleasant, listened to me for the most part, spent time with me and I didn't feel rushed, thorough. The only thing was the new research about perimenopause that she dismissed.
Excellent
Good
I have tried this doctor for the last 3 years but the experience is getting worse. Doctor did check Heart and Lungs, never check my Head and Neck, never check my nose, I have to asked her to check my ears since I haven't some issuesDoctor did a briefcheck my Abdomen went I was setting when prev doctors will always do lying down.
Always friendly and helpful
Seemed to focus more on my history than my present condition. Wanted to treat previous issues which I had stated are not a problem anymore.
Dr. Ohri spent a good deal of time making sure I had information I needed to help me with some serious problems with my health.
She's ok.
Dr. Ohri is always great to work with. She is so kind and she really listens. I've never had a better doctor.
Dr. Ohri is amazing. She makes me feel at ease and explains test results so I'm very comfortable with them.
No bad experience at this appointment
Dr. Ohri is simply the best! Always spends enough time to be thorough and address any/all health concerns patiently and completely. So lucky to have found her!
Dr. Ohri is amazing! As a healthcare worker, I am rather picky when it comes to healthcare providers, and she is definitely one of the most thorough and thoughtful physicians I've ever encountered. I am thankful to have her on my healthcare team.
Dr.Ohri is very thorough, listens to my concerns and makes suggestions.
Extremely attentive and answered all my questions and spent adequate time with me
Nothing bad
Met Dr. Ohri for the first time as I needed help with shoulder pain and she was able to see me right away. She provided excellent care and a plan going forward. I really appreciate the care she provided for me
I do like Dr. Ohri, I think she is very knowledgeable and "book" smart and knows her craft. I do wish however, that she took my concerns and the issues I had been communicating more seriously or explain why she didn't believe what I was saying to be relevant.
Dr. Ohri spent time with me and answered my questions. I felt good after my annual checkup. Dr. Ohri followed up with me that same night with result feedback. I appreciate her knowledge and care.
The doctor was more concerned with my bp; which wasn't very bad and not with my main complaint.
My care provider is excellent helping me put together a plan to manage my health
Dr Ohri is warm and engaging. She listens and gives insight or recommendations to questions or concerns. She offers guidance but not judgment.

Dr. Ohri is wonderful. Please don't let her get away!
Great experience
Dr. Ohri is very thorough and takes her time to address any of my concerns. She is very professional and genuinely concerned for her patients. She has even provided follow-up to test results after hours and on the weekends.
I would like the Dt to explain what the blood tests are. I always have to Google the tests.
