I had a hysterectomy with Dr Grimstad in 2020. Any one star reviews are transphobic lies, be careful when researching doctors. She is a wonderful doctor and surgeon. What could have been a dysphoric and traumatic experience went as seamlessly as possible and I felt comfortable and supported the entire time. She did an excellent job explaining my options to me in my intake and I felt very accommodated and well cared for during and after the surgery. If you are trans and looking for an obgyn surgeon I would highly recommend Dr. Grimstad.

This doctor is horrible, if I can give 0 stars I would. She sterilizes children. They will grow up and want to become parents. Pls don’t do this! Don’t trust her!

When I was on my way to my first ever gynecologist appointment, I was scared. Not only was it my first pelvic exam, but I am a transgender man and I haven't had many good experiences with healthcare providers. Dr. Grimstad blew those worries away. She was incredibly informed, affirming, and respectful. She made the exam not scary at all and was incredibly professional throughout. It was very obvious to me that Dr. Grimstad is truly a physician who cares about her patients. She is incredibly LGBT+ friendly and knew a LOT about trans healthcare. For once, I didn't have to teach my physician about my body. It was like a breath of fresh air. I never thought I would ever say this, but I can't wait to go back to the gynecologist!
