Amythest Gauthier, MD

Clinical Assistant Professor of Family and Community Medicine

Amythest GauthierI completed my residency here at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, and I have been a faculty member with the Department of Family and Community Medicine since 2021. I love working with patients of all ages and backgrounds to help them achieve their wellness goals. I am especially passionate about women’s health and I emphasize treating parents and their children together in my clinical practice.

My research interests are focused on quality improvement strategies to enhance care for women, expectant mothers and families, in both a dyadic care model and traditional setting. I currently serve as a clinical adviser with the Ohio Colleges of Medicine Government Resource Center and the Ohio Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics on a project called Care2: Care for Mothers at Well Visits. I am also a member of The Ohio State University Primary Care Kids Quality Improvement Committee.
