Mrs. Runkle lives in Raleigh with her husband and son. They enjoy exercising outside, cheering for NC State athletics, and regularly attend Hope Community Church.

“I have a particular interest in obstetrics, its blessings and its difficulties; however, in gynecology, I enjoy contributing to a woman’s awareness of her body and assisting her to care for it to her best ability. I enjoy forming trustworthy and educated relationships with women throughout their lives. Having the privilege to provide care in the fields of Obstetrics and Gynecology is a gift. Arbor ObGyn is a wonderful environment in which to practice.”

Fertility Evaluation / Treatment

I’ve always been impressed with Arbor. I’ve been a patient for about 18 years (minus 6 while living away from the Raleigh area) and I’ve always gotten the BEST care at this office. Rachel was so gracious as I cried about my fears being a 35 yo woman without a baby who desperately wants one and was able to give me names of fertility clinics and encouraged me to have a convo with them to discuss options. Arbor is truly one of the best OBGYN offices
