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.
Dr. Gimbal is persanable, professional and went to extra mile to assure she had a full understanding. of my condition and the best mode of investigation and treatment.
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.
Dr. Gimbel was fantastic. She was patient and kind and I really appreciated how lovely she was to work with.
I thought she was very good and respectful of my privacy. Very knowledgeable and caring!
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'.
Dr. Gimbel was amazing! I would highly recommend her to family and friends. She was very attentive and a great communicator. She made sure I didn't have any questions and explained the procedure so I felt reassured.
Dr. Gimbel is awesome!

Lauren was helpful and listened to my concerns. She was very knowledgeable and made me feel welcome and comfortable.
Dr. Gimbel was great to make sure I was recovering well from my surgery and continuing on a path to improved health. I like that she discusses options with me and includes my preferences in her plan of care and treatment options.

Excelente doctora
Dr Gimbel is the best surgeon! She not only took great care of me for my surgery, but her follow up was amazing too. I had a minor issue and she was so kind to encourage me to come in so she could help. I know her schedule is full, so I really appreciate how she worked me in. During the visit, she ran additional testing to make sure everything was good, and then once the results came back, she forwarded my prescription to the pharmacy closest to my house, not just the one that was in the clinic, which is 30 minutes away from home. From check in through the end of my appointment. The entire team was professional and personable and I felt very cared about. Adi is also great!
She is very understanding doctor female issues are so sensitive and she is very easy to talk to.
Dr Gimbel is a fantastic OBGYN. She is compassionate, thorough and has helped me to overcome GYN issues. I would send my daughters and best friend to her if they lived in Utah. 10 out of 10 recommend.
Para mi experiencia la doctora Gimbel es un excelente médico me trasmitió mucha confianza y sobre todo cuido y se preocupó de saber cómo me sentía en todo momento millones de gracias no cualquier médico explica y se preocupa por todas las áreas de una vida me siento con mucha gratitud para todo su equipo médico pero sobre todo con la doctora Gimbel Dios le bendiga
Dr. Gimbel is a fantastic physician! She patiently answers all of my questions and provides me with helpful research data and explanations.

Dr Gimbal was very attentive to me and my issue and took her time to actually explain several options to me! She made me feel safe and cared about as a woman not just a random patient!
I have tried for years to find a doctor that would listen to me. Every other doctor trued to explain my symptoms away with, "It's just hormones. It can't be that bad. Just take this pill or that one." They never wanted to actually help. Dr. Gimbel actually listened, ran tests and fought for the solutions that I needed.
She cares, listens and I am very grateful for her expertise.
A very good and kind doctor respectful treats the patient in very good way
I highly recommend Dr Gimbel as a wonderful Women's Health provider. She sincerely cared about my concerns, listened patiently, and gave me information and pros and cons so I could make an informed choice about next steps in my care.

Dr. Gimbel is amazing. She is straightforward and honest and really listened to my concerns. She took what I wanted for my care into consideration which is hard to find in my experience. I recommend her to everyone I know with similar issues looking for a provider they can trust. It does take a while to get an appointment with her, but I would absolutely wait over seeing someone else.
Everything was so perfect. Wonderful care and great doctor
As stated previously, Dr. Gimbel is very thoughtful and thorough. I really appreciate her listening to all my concerns and questions.

Dr. Gimbel has been very patient with me during both visits. She is very knowledgeable and I trust her experience and expertise.

Dr Gimbel really listened, explained my opinions clearly, and worked with me to determine a plan for moving forward.
Dr Gimbel took the time to explain my test results and carefully describe the pros and cons of my treatment options. I appreciated the way she respected the fears I have and was kind and supportive.

Dr. Gimbel clearly cares for her patients. She is very welcoming and invested in my care.
She is a caring quality professional that goes the extra mile, a doctor who really cares about her patients.
If you have no idea how to treat my condition then either send me to a provider with more experience or collaborate with a more senior mentor for help. You should also ask a colleague for help on how to discuss are with a patient. I came out of my appointment extremely confused and overwhelmed with these way you discussed things.
I have enjoyed Dr. Gimbel since the first time I met with her. She had HUGE shoes to fill and has done a fine job. She is concise in her explanations and in a way that are easily understandable. She listens to my questions and comments with interest and answers me in ways that are easy for me to understand. She respects my privacy and is very concerned and caring. She is thorough in her examinations. Her nurses/technicians work well to protect my privacy as well and are very easy to talk with and care for my needs, asking if I want water or anything else to make me feel comfortable. This is a well run, clean and knowledgeable practice and I am happy for the opportunity to rate Dr. Gimbel from a patients point of view. Thank you.
Dr. Gimbel was kind, caring, and trusting. I am thrilled to establish my OB care with her!
I very much appreciated her kindness when she did my surgery and also on my post surgery appointment. We need more doctors like her.
I am very pleased with Dr. Gimbles' care and would highly recommend her to others who are in need of her services. She is very thorough and explains in detail what my problems are and fully explains the details of treatments. The only constructive criticism I would have of any of the younger personnel that I come in contact with is, they speak too quickly for older ears!!
Dr Gimbel was amazing and extremely understanding and caring
Dr. Gimbel takes extra time to answer my concerns and explain the situation, timeline of healing, and treatment plan to me.
Loved the physician! Very helpful.
Dr. Gimbel is so caring and always spends extra time listening to my concerns. I never feel rushed and always leave the visit with a good plan. She is also very accommodating and always tries to find a visit that works with my schedule.
Dr. Gimbel was very thorough and she addressed all my concerns during the visit.
My new provider is very kind and informative. She, Dr. Gimble, is very cognizant of my situation and explains in detail what my treatments will be and the extent of my particular situation. My privacy is maintained in a very caring way. I am sure this has been a difficult transition since the death of Dr. Paul Summers and the dignity and caring that he displayed is evident still. He is dearly missed. But, I am delighted with Dr. Gimble as well.
