How does the COVID-19 pandemic impact upcoming appointments?
During this time of public health concern, some appointments may take place via telehealth wherever it's possible and appropriate. For all in-person visits, you can feel confident that our locations are safe. We've taken significant measures to minimize the risk of the spread of COVID-19 and worked tirelessly to ensure that our patients are protected. Visit our COVID-19 safety page for more information.

Neurological Specialty Care on the 12th floor of the Ohio State Brain and Spine Hospital offers you follow-up care after initial specialty procedures are provided through the Brain and Spine Hospital. These procedures include services for stroke, epilepsy and headache; spinal and endovascular surgery; and orthopedic care for the spine.
Neurological Specialty Care allows you to receive follow-up care in the same location and from the same providers you’ve already been seeing for expert neurology care.

Valet Parking
Effective July 1, 2021, valet services at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center main campus locations (James, Ross, University Hospital, Brain and Spine) will transition to a “no tip” service, which means that valet attendants will not accept tips from customers. The daily valet rate will increase from $8 to $10. As part of the transition, valet enhancements are being made at the medical center main campus locations as well as Martha Morehouse Outpatient Care to enhance the customer experience, including the acceptance of credit cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay as well as ticketless valet check-in options.
