Dhruv Kohli, MD

I'm a resident training in the Child Neurology / Pediatrics Combined Residency Program. I have a particular interest in epilepsy and neonatal neurology. Child neurology is a natural fit for me because I love the brain and kids!

I first developed a fascination with neurology as a child, learning about my father's epilepsy and seeing firsthand how it impacted his life. I have found the brain to be the most intriguing organ we have, both magnificent in its abilities and mysterious in its workings. I am excited to explore and expand our understanding of the nervous system.

As a patient population, children are incredible in many ways. I am constantly astounded by their unique perspectives of the world and their often-surprising resilience in the face of adversity. I find it truly fulfilling to give guidance to children and families as I provide them with the opportunity to explore the future that lies ahead of them.

I chose Cincinnati Children's for residency because of my remarkable experiences as a medical student rotating throughout the hospital, particularly in the neurology service. The people who work here are all dedicated to providing the best care for our patients and ensuring their colleagues are well-supported. It's a joy to spend time with my co-residents and the faculty inside and outside the hospital!

In my free time, I enjoy baking and cooking and sampling the food I make. I also love playing video games, watching time travel movies and listening to hip-hop music.
