HOW THE LIST WAS COMPILED

Castle Connolly Top Doctors is a health care research company and the official source for Top Doctors for over 25 years. Castle Connol ly’s established nomination survey, research, screening and selection process involves many hundreds of thousands of physicians, as well as academic medical centers, specialty hospitals and regional and communi ty hospitals all across the nation.

online nominations process— located at nominations.castleconnol ly.com—is open to all licensed physi cians in America, who are able to nominate physi cians in any medical spe cialty and in any part of the country. Once nomi nated, Castle Connolly’s physician-led team of re searchers follow a rigorous screening process to select Top Doctors who meet the Castle Connolly standards. The research team also identifies Castle Connolly Rising Stars, who are peer-nominated doctors who meet most of our Top Doctor criteria, but are earlier in their career.

Careful screening of doctors’ edu cational and professional experience is essential before final selection is made among those physicians most highly regarded by their peers. The result: We identify the top doctors in America and provide you, the con sumer, with detailed information about their education, training and

special expertise in our online di rectories and national and regional magazine “Top Doctors” features.

Doctors do not and cannot pay to be selected and profiled as Cas tle Connolly Top Doctors or Rising Stars.

Physicians selected for inclusion in this magazine’s “Top Doctors” feature also appear online at castleconnolly. com, or in conjunction with other Castle Connolly Top Doctors data bases online on other sites and/or in print.

Castle Connolly was acquired by Everyday Health Group (EHG), one of the world’s most prominent digital health care companies, in late 2018. EHG, a recog nized leader in patient and provider education and services, attracts an engaged audience of over 60 million health consumers and over 890,000 U.S. practicing physicians and cli nicians.

TOP DOCTOR: THE VETERAN

KIMBERLY AUSTIN

The OhioHealth family physician has been on the list continuously since 2015.

What drew you to family medicine? I wanted to do everything! I didn’t want to limit myself to one system of the body, so I chose family medicine because it allowed me to do something different every day.

What is the most rewarding part of your job? I’ve had patients begin to weep in gratitude, just telling me how thankful they are to have felt seen and heard. Some have had concerns that others had dismissed. In those cases, I just listen, order tests and reassure our patients that we will do our best to try to figure out what was happening, while reminding them that we did not create the body, so sometimes the result is a lot of things that are not the problem but not a definitive answer as to what the problem is. That is the most rewarding part of my job. Connecting with patients and helping to give patients dignity, while hoping to educate and provide a level of understanding so that the patient is engaged and empowered to find their best health.

How has the COVID-19 pandemic altered your practice? The pandemic has high lighted how desperately we need to prioritize making a difference in a patient’s life and how important connection to one another is to our self-care and our mental health. I have intentionally slowed down with patients whom I see need that human connection and are suffering from the isolation that COVID-19

PHILIP DIAZ

The Ohio State University physician is the only critical care medicine specialist on the list.

How has critical care medicine changed since you started practicing? There have been important advances in technology, such as the widespread availability of bedside ultrasound as a diagnostic tool. At the same time, we have had better recognition of the limits of technology and have adopted a more conservative approach to many of our more invasive procedures, realizing in some cases “less is more.” However, I think the most important advance is the develop ment of the team approach to the patient care. Now, rounds are multidisci plinary with nurses, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, dietitians and social workers all contributing to the daily plan of care for the patients.

What would you have been if you had not become a doctor? One of the aspects of my job at Ohio State that I enjoy the most is teaching. So if I were not a doctor, I may have been a high school teacher. Alternatively, one of my passions outside of work is tennis. I played college tennis, and during medical school, I had a part-time job as a tennis instructor. So I also might have been have become a club tennis pro.

What has been the proudest moment of your career? I’ve been fortunate to have many great moments in my career, but being able to participate in my son’s “white coat” ceremony as he entered medical school at Ohio State stands out. My father, a Filipino immigrant, came to this country in the 1950s shortly after graduating from medical school. He came here, on his own, to complete his residency and eventually embarked on a career in general surgery. I was very

TOP DOCTOR: THE ROOKIE

MARTIN TAYLOR

The OrthoNeuro neurologist is a newcomer to the list.

How has the COVID-19 pandemic altered your practice? We did telemedicine for a few months, but patients needed to be seen in the office, as we perform injection treatments on a regular basis on most of our patients. This includes therapeutic Botox and nerve blocks.

What are some of the best ways to prevent headaches? This is a complicated an swer. It is important to track headaches on a calendar, as they may be treated differently depending on the frequency. Migraines are genetic in origin, and increased frequency occurs because of hormonal changes, stress/anxiety, neck problems, teeth-grinding and sleep problems, to name a few of the most com mon triggers.

What’s different about your field, neurology, than other specialties?  A neurologist treats many chronic conditions that can be present for a patient’s entire life. These include progressive conditions such as Parkinson’s and dementia and nonprogres sive conditions like migraines and dystonia. In either type of illness, we may treat a patient for many years, which allows us to get to know the patient and their family well.

Do you recall a particularly gratifying case—and what made it gratifying?  I can tell you about the most gratifying condition to treat. I am an expert in the treatment of dystonia with botulinum toxin (Botox). Dystonia is a condition of twisting and turning muscles, which can cause muscle pain, pulling, spasms and trem ors. It is a rare condition that can take several years and multiple doctors to

COLUMBUS AESTHETIC & PLASTIC SURGERY

There’s a reason Columbus Aes thetic & Plastic Surgery, or CAPS, is among the most sought-after aesthetic medicine practices in the Midwest: Its staff is dedicated to providing the highest quality of care. That dedication is appreciated by clients, of course, but it’s also recognized by fellow physicians, as evidenced by doctors Timothy Treece, Susan Vasko, Robert Heck, John Wakelin and Tyler Angelos be ing peer-nominated and confirmed to the Castle Connolly Top Doctors list in 2022.

“I enjoy plastic surgery because it is about problem-solving in a uniquely scientific and creative way,” say the doctors at CAPS. “Every patient is different—from their reason for surgery to their anatomy and aesthetic goals— so we have to get to know each patient and collaborate closely

with them to provide a customized procedure and treatment plan that meets their needs.”

CAPS doctors believe in the power of plastic surgery to enhance confidence and boost self-esteem. They stay on the leading edge of surgical techniques through con tinuing education and always strive to combine their technical expertise and years of experience with cre ative and aesthetic vision.

With a premier MedSpa and a board-certified dermatologist on staff, CAPS is well-poised to offer its clients the most comprehensive skin care and treatment in addition to a full spectrum of aesthetic and thera peutic plastic surgery options.

“We are proud of what makes us different,” say the doctors at CAPS. “Our patients enjoy a luxury experi ence and lasting results that enhance their lives from the inside out.”

“It creates quite the dichotomy of patients every day: You’ve got these cancer patients who come in feeling scared, defeated, frustrated. And you provide services that make them feel more whole and less ravaged by disease,” Houser says. “The cosmetic patients, really, are no different. Something has taken their mojo, their sense of confidence. And providing care for those patients is about making them feel like they recognize what they see in the mirror.”

“Beauty comes in all different sizes and shapes,” he says. “Just because something works for someone else, doesn’t mean it will for you. I’ve been doing this for going on 20 years, and I took over my dad’s practice, who practiced for 38 years. Having the his torical perspective of 50-plus years of plastic surgery, I know the standards haven’t changed.”

Houser and his staff consistently provide incredible care and beautiful results. The team remains on the cutting-edge of surgical technolo gy and advancements while avoiding trends that quickly go out of fashion or even pose risks. Instead, they prioritize safety and help patients to enhance natural beauty on the road to achieving their goals.

“I really don’t like the public per ception of what cosmetic surgery is,” Houser says. “This is not L.A. and Dr. 90201; it’s your average, everyday peo ple who just need a little something to get that spark back, to feel better about themselves.”

From brow lifts and eye lifts to tummy tucks and breast augmenta tions, every procedure is performed with the utmost care and safety. When a patient comes in for their consulta tion, Houser will help them find the right procedure to address their individual needs, tailoring the plan to enhance natural features and reveal the patient’s most confident self.

Houser and his team believe that patients of all ages and genders deserve renewed confidence, and they stop at nothing to help them achieve their goals. Services like the mommy makeover, face lifts, and Botox® can help women to feel their best, and for men, Houser is the first and only surgeon in Ohio to specialize in the ARTAS® Robotic Pro cedure, a hair restoration procedure that provides natural-looking regrowth without any staples, stitches or scar ring. The office also offers nonsurgi cal and skincare services—including chemical peels, microneedling, Botox® and dermal filler injectables—with licensed medical estheticians and nurse injectors.

The staff at Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery of Columbus consider their office a family and see every patient as their newest member, taking the time to understand each patient’s story, needs and goals. And clients will never be “upsold” on a procedure that won’t work for them.

“I tell every patient that comes in, ‘I’m going to treat you like my family,’ ” Houser says. “I wouldn’t do a procedure on a woman that I wouldn’t do to my own wife or daughter; I’m not going to recommend something to a guy that I wouldn’t recommend to my brother or father. It’s not just a profession—it should be a relationship.”

Our practice has been pur pose-built to see patients who need the best orthopedic and neurologic care, usually within 24 hours.”
