About Me
I am a nurse practitioner in the Division of Colorectal Surgery, providing care for patients undergoing surgical treatment for diseases of the colon, rectum and anus. I am devoted to providing individualized care and fostering patient-provider relationships built on respect, transparency, empathy and safety. Patients can rely on me for high quality, compassionate care and honest communication in every encounter.
I enjoy collaborating with a multidisciplinary team of skilled experts to ensure each patient receives personal care tailored to their unique needs and values. I am passionate about educating patients to enhance understanding of their disease and treatment options.
I have committed 15 years of my nursing career to The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, prior to my role as an advanced practice provider. I feel there are endless opportunities for education, as well as personal and professional growth within the academic setting.

Laura was so patient AB's showed empathy for my health concerns.
Very knowledgeable and helpful.
Understanding that my visit was a surgical post-check, she was well aware of my condition prior and verified what I expected, that the healing was progressing very well.
Amazing!! She was so awesome at going over every little detail and listened to everything I had to say. I feel like she truly cared about my health problems, how I felt about them and went over how to help me!! She made an uncomfortable and scarey visit, comfortable and not so scarey. Definitely will recommend her!!
