Laura A. Gorski, DO
SUBSPECIALIST IN MATERNAL- FETAL MEDICINE
“I always wanted to be a physician. But when it came time for me to choose a specialty, I chose obstetrics and gynecology because I was fascinated with the miracle of life, particularly birth. I decided to specialize in maternal-fetal medicine to play an integral role in helping women have the healthiest pregnancy outcome possible.
“Today, after having helped thousands of women with elevated risks get through their pregnancies, I am every bit as interested in and committed to making a difference for them. I care for these women, and I treat them with the honesty, respect and dedication they — and their babies — deserve. The truth is, perinatal care depends in large part on having a good relationship with each woman, her family and her referring obstetrician. They deserve to know that my heart is completely invested in the success of the pregnancy. They also deserve to know that she’s getting care that is among the most advanced and skilled in the region.”
