Great. Informative, respectful and knowledgeable. She helped where the Doctors I have seen lately in other hospitals have not.

Dr. Gimbel did an exceptional job -- she was prepared and effiicient, but also took time to understand my history, discuss my current concerns, explain the procedure itself, detail a clear plan for communicating results and pursuing further treatment. She communicated very well and took into account my values and preferences.

Both Dr. Gimbel and her MA Adriel were extremely kind. They took the time to explain everything in great detail and answered any questions I had. They both ensured that I was as comfortable as possible at all times throughout my appointment! I will definitely be returning and will be recommending Dr. Gimbel and her team to any of my loved ones in need of an OBGYN. Huge thank you to Dr. Gimbel and Adriel for being so amazing!

Dr. Gimbel is 100% a 10 out of 10 provider. She takes extra time to review history and to explain all options and then has the expertise to carry out what is needed in a gentle, compassionate manner. I highly recommend this skilled provider.

Extremely caring, thorough, and dedicated. She listened when so many others wouldn't. Super fast recovery. Couldn't recommend her more. She is my hero! The nurses were phenomenal. So we're the front desk people to check me in. All amazing. Wonderful experience.

The only issue I had is that I was not able to see her at the South Jordan / Daybreak campus and instead had to come all the way to the University Hospital site. Other than that - it was a great visit. Very different from my other visits. That will take some getting used to.

I saw Dr. Gimbel for a second opinion. She was one of the most thorough OB's I've seen. She had great bedside manner, excellent patient education, and had great expertise. She didn't rush me and made a helpful referral. I will be switching over to her moving forward!

Had a potentially serious medical complication with my pregnancy and felt blown off by the end of the appointment. All I heard the whole time was 'I don't know, and science isn't really sure'.
