Dr. Laura Rosch: Pursuing Osteopathic Internal Medicine as a Pathway to Lead, Transform, and Heal Patients
Laura Rosch, DO, CS, MS, FACOI, entered osteopathic internal medicine to help save the lives of people like her grandfather, who died of heart disease when she was 14.
“What drew me into medicine is that I loved science,” Dr. Rosch said. “I love studying the body. I love understanding physiology. Like a lot of things, you might have health problems of your own [or] you want to figure out a solution for someone in your family who has heart disease, which was the case for me." You want to be able to solve it “but more importantly, prevent it.”
