About Me

Conditions I specialize in
  • Rheumatology

Dr. Michelle Laugle enjoys developing close relationships with her patients as she supports them through chronic and often lifelong diseases. She values the rapidly changing advancements in molecular biology, immunology and drug development that impact her specialty. Staying current on these changes allows her to positively influence the quality of life and disease progression of her patients.

Dr. Laugle specializes in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases that affect the joints, bones, muscles, ligaments and tendons. She likes to help patients understand their disease process so they can work together to develop a treatment plan through shared decision-making. She encourages everyone to stay active, exercise regularly, eat healthy and maintain a positive outlook. Dr. Laugle has consistently been recognized by her peers as a “Top Doctor” in Cincinnati Magazine.

Dr. Laugle grew up in the Cincinnati area. She and her husband, a doctor at Bethesda North Hospital, have two young children who keep them busy. Her hobbies include nutrition and fitness. She is also an animal lover and enjoys spending time with her Russian Blue cat and Goldendoodle.

      Dr. Laugle was very thorough, and explain things to me extremely well. She identified things from past tests that other doctors had never mentioned to me before. I was very impressed
