Liza Kunz, MD, FACOG

Liza Kunz, MD, FACOG, is disease area network lead for obstetrics and gynecology at Roche Diagnostics Corporation. Passionate about women’s health, Liza is board certified in both obstetrics and gynecology and maternal-fetal medicine. She maintains a clinical practice at Palo Alto Medical Foundation, where she previously served as founding partner of the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Division, director of maternal-fetal medicine and service line director for women’s health. Dr. Kunz completed her medical school at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, residency at Albert Einstein College of Medicine/Montefiore Medical Center and fellowship in maternal-fetal medicine at the University of California at Davis. Her interest in maternal child health took shape during undergraduate studies in public policy with a concentration in healthcare at Stanford University. She transitioned to a primary role in the diagnostics industry in 2017, seeing the power of well-crafted assays to clarify the diagnostic journey for patients—first in the prenatal diagnostic space and then with time across the breadth of her medical specialty. Liza is grateful for the opportunity to speak daily for the needs of clinicians and patients in her role at Roche.
