Get to know Obstetrician-Gynecologist Dr. Susanne V. Osborne, who serves patients in Florida.

Dr. Osborne is a board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist who is currently serving patients at Woman’s Health Centers in Kissimmee, Florida. Woman’s Health Centers has a team of doctors specializing in all facets of women’s health and wellness. Their commitment to women’s health is paramount to all they do and their services include a comprehensive range of services to prevent, diagnose, and treat women in obstetrics, gynecology, and urogynecology. 

Alongside her services with Woman’s Health Centers, Dr. Osborne practices at AdventHealth for Women in Orlando, Florida. AdventHealth for Women provides comprehensive health and wellness services and minimally invasive procedures for women at every stage of life.

Originally from Vancouver, British Columbia in Canada, Dr. Osborne has an undergraduate degree in biology from Oakwood College (now Oakwood University) in Huntsville, Alabama. She attended medical school at Loma Linda University School of Medicine in Loma Linda, California. She spent her residency years specializing in obstetrics and gynecology at Bridgeport Hospital via Yale School of Medicine. During her time in Bridgeport, she earned a prestigious award – the Excellence in Yale Teaching Award.

Before moving to Central Florida to be closer to family, Dr. Osborne spent a few years at a women’s health practice in Seattle, Washington, and then worked with a physicians group at Highland Community Hospital in Picayune, Mississippi. 

When asked what made her interested in medicine, and especially becoming an OB-GYN, she recalls two different stories about her family. First, she has fond memories of spending time around her uncle’s goat farm. She says that she loved the farm the most in the springtime when all of the baby goats were born. Dr. Osborne was also motivated to become a doctor by a story of her father’s – that he had a sister who died in childbirth.

Fast forward a few decades from her childhood and Dr. Osborne has certainly accomplished her goals of helping many women. She says that her favorite part of the job is sharing her knowledge with her patients so that they are informed about their bodies and reproductive health. She accomplishes this by making sure that she takes the time to answer her patients’ questions and address any concerns that they might have.

In addition to being a Fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Dr. Osborne is board-certified in obstetrics & gynecology by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG). The ABOG is a non-profit organization that board certifies obstetricians and gynecologists (OB-GYNS) and also offers continuous certification to OB-GYNS in the United States and Canada. Their mission is to define specialty standards, certify obstetricians and gynecologists, and facilitate continuous learning to advance knowledge, practice, and professionalism in women’s health.

Obstetrics and Gynecology is the medical specialty that encompasses the two subspecialties of obstetrics (covering pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period) and gynecology (covering the health of the female reproductive system – vagina, uterus, ovaries, and breasts). An obstetrician-gynecologist, or OB-GYN, is a healthcare professional who specializes in female reproductive health.
