Bloom OB/GYN is proud to welcome Laura Kiszkiel, MD to our physician team. Dr. Kiszkiel brings deep clinical experience, a lifelong commitment to women’s health, and a genuine love for building long-term patient relationships. Her approach reflects Bloom’s philosophy of compassionate, personalized care grounded in medical excellence.
A Career Shaped by Continuity and Connection
Dr. Kiszkiel’s path to obstetrics and gynecology began unexpectedly. She entered medical school planning to become a pediatrician, but one OB/GYN rotation changed everything. The opportunity to care for women across decades of life, combined with the experience of labor and delivery, made her decision clear.
What drew her in then continues to inspire her today: the ability to support women medically and emotionally through some of life’s most meaningful moments. From preventive gynecologic care to pregnancy, birth, and beyond, Dr. Kiszkiel values the continuity and trust that develop over time between physician and patient.
She completed her undergraduate education at the University of Notre Dame, earned her medical degree from Tulane University School of Medicine, and completed her OB/GYN residency at the University of Florida. Over the years, she has lived and trained across the country, gaining a broad perspective that informs her thoughtful, adaptable approach to care.
Why Women’s Health
For Dr. Kiszkiel, OB/GYN offers something unique in medicine: long-term relationships paired with moments of profound impact. She loves being present for women at every phase of life and describes delivering babies as one of the most rewarding experiences of her career.
Her care style is grounded, attentive, and collaborative. Dr. Kiszkiel believes patients deserve to feel heard, supported, and informed, and she prioritizes open communication and shared decision-making in every visit. This philosophy aligns seamlessly with Bloom OB/GYN’s commitment to patient-centered care.
Life Beyond the Clinic
Outside of medicine, Dr. Kiszkiel enjoys baking, walking her dog, and spending time with her husband and two daughters. She is deeply involved in her girls’ lives and serves as a Girl Scout leader for two separate troops, a role she finds both meaningful and fun.
Travel is another passion. Some of her favorite experiences include exploring South Africa, sailing through Greece, visiting Australia’s Pilbara region, and traveling to Maui with her family. Looking ahead, she hopes to visit New Zealand, Iceland, and return to Africa to take her family on safari.
