  • Kirsti Rinne completed her training as a Women's Health Nurse Practitioner at Boston College in 2008. With no place to call home, Kirsti traveled around the United States. She was eventually drawn to Utah to be close to family but immediately fell in love with Utah’s mountains and desert where she decided to stay. After several years of working in Salt Lake City as a Nurse Practitioner at Planned Parenthood and the University of Utah OB Emergency department, Kirsti decided to return to school to study midwifery. She received her post-graduate training from the University of Utah and joined the University’s midwife practice shortly thereafter. In 2015, 2017, and 2020 driven by a passion for global health work, Kirsti went on assignments with the organization Doctors Without Borders, where she provided medical care for women in Ethiopia, South Sudan and Cameroon. On all three assignments she spent her time educating the community and national staff midwives as well as providing reproductive healthcare for women. Kirsti joined the general OB/GYN division and Maternal Fetal Medicine group in 2018.

    Kirsti is amazing!!! I recommend her to everyone! She is kind, knowledgeable , personable, interested in what you have to say, and if she doesn't know the answer, she reaches out to others to find it. She is gentle with the hard things, and always puts me at ease. I love that our visits never feel rushed, and she's great at picking up where we left off from the last visit. Her follow up is like a breath of fresh air- she always does what she says she will do. I feel extremely confident, and comfortable during each visit. She is my absolute favorite provider I've seen at the U of U. Her care feels superior to everything I've ever received. She's available if an issue comes up, and her staff is courteous and friendly too. If I could give a score higher than 10 I would. I love Kirsti! And I know will too.

    Kristi is the best! She genuinely seems like she is listening to you, and takes her time to care for you. She explains everything going on. I truly can't say enough good things about her.

    Kirsti was awesome! She explained everything to me super well and did not rush through my visit. I decided to see an OB because of my age with my pregnancy but would switch to her if I get pregnant again in the future.

    Kirsti is the best. She is an excellent listener and she is so good at being honest and optimistic. She is extremely knowledgeable, while still being a great explainer and a personable provider. If you are lucky enough to be under her care, rest assured that you will feel heard and seen every time you're in that office.

    Kirsti is very caring and kind! These types of appointments are never fun but she made it bearable and gave me a lot of good information so I could make the right decision.
