Laurel was inspired to become a midwife when she witnessed her friend give birth with a nurse midwife and student, at a hospital in Oregon. She went on to volunteer as a doula (a childbirth support person) for several years while completing nursing prerequisites and her nurse-midwifery schooling. She loves the infinite variety of stories in midwifery and hopes that patients who come to see her feel heard and respected. In her work at Bronson, Laurel particularly enjoys Centering Pregnancy prenatal groups, contraceptive troubleshooting, holding space during normal and difficult labors and explaining health concepts.
