About Klara Vogel, MD, F.A.C.O.G.
Certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Klara Vogel, MD, is a Fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology – FACOG.
Dr. Vogel knew early in life that her destiny was medicine, and by the eighth grade, she was volunteering in the Labor and Delivery ward of her local community hospital. She says, “I love working with my hands, working with and helping women, and staying up-to-date on scientific research.”
Consistent in her passion to help women, Dr. Vogel has a wide array of interests in her field, including women’s health, osteoporosis, general obstetrics, infertility, high-risk pregnancy, and menopause. Her commitment to helping all women in need has taken her abroad to Mongolia and other developing countries where she volunteered, performing 4 to 5 life-saving surgeries per day. She was recognized for this service with the Arthur Allen award for “Ethics and Humanism in Medicine.”
Dr. Vogel has received the American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists Award for Excellence in Endoscopy and the American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology Award of Excellence in Colposcopy. She is currently serving on the OBGyn Committee at Providence Saint John’s hospital.
Dr. Vogel graduated with honors from Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, and then earned her medical degree from the Mayo Graduate & Medical School in Rochester, Minnesota. As a medical student at the Mayo Clinic, her teachers and mentors solidified her Obstetrics and Gynecology interest. Dr. Vogel returned to Los Angeles to complete her internship and residency at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Dr. Vogel was made Chief Resident during her residency at Cedars-Sinai.
My previous care provider retired in the middle of my pregnancy and I was given a 2 week notice. When I found Dr. Vogel, I was nervous about changing providers mid pregnancy. Dr. Vogel has been exceptional and she made my birth feel so easy and low stress. I felt secure with her care and was confident in her ability to deliver my baby safely. I am very pleased and grateful to have found Dr. Vogel!

I had to wait about 45mins to see her. Dr Vogel was very attentive and felt confidence in my concern
Providence PatientI trust Dr. Vogel with my healthcare and my life. She is an excellent doctor and I know I'm in great care with her.
Providence PatientDr Vogel and her staff are always professional and treat their patients with respect and kindness.
Providence PatientAll good things

Providence PatientVery good experiences related to my care provider
Providence PatientEverything was good. I wish she spent a little more time with me and was a bit less clinical.
Providence PatientDr. Klara Vogel is the BEST, and I have recommended her to all my friends and family!
Providence PatientVery good experience from doctor and staff.
Providence PatientDr Vogel is just the best. She is kind, calm, and incredibly intelligent. She is my regular OBGYN - I came in with a concern, she ordered the correct tests, made an accurate diagnoses, and quickly scheduled me in for an outpatient procedure. She made me feel safe and heard throughout the entire process and I could not recommend her enough!
Providence PatientDr Vogel is kind, helpful and willing to listen to any concerns I have
Providence PatientAm happy with her
Providence PatientProfessional and courteous.
Providence PatientI was somewhat anxious going into this appointment because I was treated poorly during my previous appointment by the nurse who took my vitals and prepared me to meet with Dr. Vogel. However, the nurse who helped me this time was pleasant, friendly, and kind and took her time while doing my blood pressure, etc. She even took a second blood pressure reading using a different cuff size because the first one seemed off and told me what she was doing and why.
Providence PatientI have been visiting this practice for over 10 years and deeply appreciate Dr. Vogel. She Is incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. While I was able to get an appointment same day due to the reason I was calling, I had to wait 20-30 mins each time I called to speak to a receptionist. This never happened in all the years I've been going to this practice. I can't imagine having to call more frequently during a pregnancy. Hopefully there was just a glitch in the phone system that day.
Providence PatientKlara is steady and very professional I appreciate that.
Providence PatientVery pleased.

Providence PatientDr Vogel seems very nice and knowledgeable . The visit usually lasts a 5-10 minutes. Because I am a fairly new patient (my Ob-gyn retired several years ago ) I only see her once a year and she doesn't really know me.

Providence PatientI've been a patient of Klara Vogel for at least a decade. I love her and her office! Since becoming members of Providence, I was concerned things would change, but they haven't. They stayed true to everything they were, and that I loved before Providence. They are WONDERFUL! And, for the record, I love Providence too! Thank you for the care you provide and for allowing all of the organizations to continue to offer premiere healthcare even after acquisition (that includes St. John's, which I have always loved too). That speaks loudly to the Providence organization on the whole. Thank you.

Dr. Vogel is very direct which my husband and I like, but she also shows so much compassion through her eyes - which means so much to me.

Providence PatientFirst visit here and it's already so much better than my previous gyno experience.
Providence PatientShe is very knowledgeable and listened. Very pleasant.

Providence PatientDr. Vogel pleasant and easy to talk to.
Providence PatientMy experiences with the doctor and staff are great.
Providence PatientHad some check-in check-out issues and ended up being there for an extra hour. But I understand that they were slammed and short staffed so it's understandable. I did like that everything was in house such as blood work and ultrasounds. Made it easy to handle it all in one day.

Providence PatientShe is always very helpful and understanding.
Providence PatientShe was very helpful in explaining about my meds.
Providence PatientVery hard to get an appointment and the clerk staff disrespectful and rude. They have no appointments available even when it was an urgent matter. I called everyday asking for a cancellation and a woman there who answered every morning, told me, "I keep telling u we don't have anything available" I felt trapped. I waited two weeks with severe pain and the office didn't care. When I got in the wonderful doctor told me to make a follow up in a week. When I called the office to do so they were rude and asked me why and questioned me why I needed an appt. They refused to give me the appt based on what I had to say and hang up the phone on me. I only put up with this because I respect the doctors and the doctors are the best.
Providence PatientVery caring doctoe
Providence PatientMy visit was perfectly pleasant. They did seem quite busy but I didn't feel neglected and everyone was nice.
Providence PatientDr. Vogel blew me away with her compassion, professionalism, and amazing bedside manner. Every single staff member I spoke to in the office was polite and kind. I have never had such a positive experience!
