"Dr. Opperman is an internal medicine specialist. He has experience in both primary care and working with hospitalized patients. As an internal medicine physician, he does not see pediatric patients nor does he typically see OBGYN patients. While most family doctors are learning these skills, internal medicine physicians are honing their expertise in the fields of cardiology, diabetes, gastroenterology or many other adult medicine fields. Dr. Opperman is especially focused on managing diabetes, cardiology concerns, and obesity. While these fields are of special interest to him, he also has experience treating all other aspects of adult medicine. Dr. Opperman values spending time with his patients to actually get to know them as people, not just their medical conditions. Dr. Opperman has served as clinical teaching faculty for Kettering Medical Center internal medicine residency program along with teaching assignments with Wright State University and Ohio University schools of medicine. Dr. Opperman is a graduate of the University of Dayton and completed his residency training at Kettering Medical Center. He enjoys spending time with his family, golfing and most other sports, and is an avid Dayton Flyers basketball fan. He is an active member of his church and frequently volunteers in community outreach programs. He serves as a “big brother” mentor to a local youth through the Big Brothers, Big Sisters program."
