Summary

  • Dr. Ryan Hedgepeth is the system chief of urology for OhioHealth with a clinical practice devoted to advanced robotics and urologic cancer surgery. He received his medical degree from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine and completed residency training at the Cleveland Clinic. He then pursued fellowship training in urologic oncology and laparoscopic surgery at the University of Michigan where he also obtained a Master's degree in Clinical Research Design and Statistical Analysis from the graduate school.
