About Me
More info forI am a hematologist specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of plasma cell disorders, such as multiple myeloma and amyloidosis. These disorders are intricately intertwined with the immune system and my research focus on harnessing the power of the human body’s immune system to treat and cure cancer. Since early childhood, I was taught the importance of sincerity, hard work and paying it forward. The driving force for my career is taking good care of my patients as if they were my own family members and striving to provide them with the best care possible. My goal is to improve the standard of care in hematology through new, groundbreaking clinical trials and edge closer to a cure. I value being at a medical center where the sole focus is cancer care and all health care providers are skilled at taking care of cancer patients. I am an assistant professor in the Division of Hematology at Ohio State, where I teach both residents and medical students, as well as a member of several organizations, including the American Society of Hematology, the American College of Physicians, the American Society of Clinical Oncology and the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer. My other role is as clinical investigator with a focus on research in the field of immunotherapy in multiple myeloma and amyloidosis. My research has been recognized nationally and internationally, and I was the recipient of the ASH Abstract Achievement Award multiple times. What I enjoy most about the OSUCCC – James is being able to work with people who are as passionate as me about taking care of cancer patients. It is amazing to see how everyone comes together to fulfill the mission of the cancer center. There is a real collegial atmosphere that fosters collaboration and the advancement of health care and science, and it directly impacts our patients.

Dr. Bumma is a great doctor. He involves me in any decision, she shows me my levels on the Computer and he is so kind and nice! I would recommend him to any one who is in need of a Cancer doctor. He is the best!
I have always felt very well cared for and in good hands at the James. Dr. Bumma explains everything well and gives me options, but leaves the final decision for treatment up to me. It makes me feel involved in the process rather than just a problem to be solved.
Both my wife and I were exceptionally pleased with the services provided and the outcome of my 2nd Opinion Evaluations and Consultations, and especially with getting key questions answered regarding my rare disease, that we were not getting elsewhere, and as a result have transferred my care to your OSU Clinic Specialists.
Dr Bumma and his staff are the best

Dr Bumma is a good doctor! I feel very comfortable with him. I don't believe he would hold anything back from me. He was excited for me when he told me it had been 4 years since my Transplant. He's gotten me this far! Lol! He made a great decision when you chose him to work for the James Center, he is excellent!
