Dr Gimre is one of the best, if not the best orthopedic doctor I’ve ever seen. Does an outstanding job of explaining everything and takes enough time to understand the patient and what the best course of treatment is.

Dr. Gimre is the best physician I have seen. He’s kind, knowledgeable, patient, and takes his time to explain everything thoroughly without making you feel pressured to do expensive tests or treatments.

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
