Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I Love Dr. Gilmore
I started going to Dr. Gilmore for over thirty years and I will not change. She has been there for me and my family in more ways than just a dr. She has also been a dr. Friend. I can talk to her about any situation. She is a great person and an excellent physician . I recommend anyone who needs a loving and caring doctor who will go over and beyond to take care of her patients to try her. I love her.

Essential to my health journey
Dr Gilmore has worked with me in a way that feels like a team to create a plan for total wellness. She is helping me with hormone imbalances, insulin resistance, and more. She's a straight shooter and I'm happy to have found her!! The scale and lab results speak to how well her protocol is working for me.

Irritated rushed uncaring
Rushed and did not explain fully my condition. Did not listen as I tried to explain. Seemed irritated and uncaring. When I mentioned my sudden and unwarranted weigh gain her response was, “ I am not a weight loss doctor. What do want me to do? She has prescribed hormones for me about 2 yrs and I questioned maybe my balance had something to do with it. She was very irritated and said that I was where she wanted me to be. I will keep her but don’t feel comfortable seeing her except my yearly physical.

Horrendous physician, despicable nurses. Never in my life have I felt so disrespected and abused. Basically was TOLD that I was either going to get bloodwork done or my Rx For routine medication would not be signed. I did not anticipate bloodwork so I questioned it and she RIPPED the Rx up and stormed out. Her nurse SHOOK HER HEAD at me and also walked out, leaving me in the room for 10mins alone. I began to have a panic attack at this point. When the nurse came back, I asked why I needed bloodwork and she WAVED ME OFF! I asked again and when she didn’t answer me, I began to leave. She grabbed my arm HARD to try and stop me...which is SO out of line. Needless to say, I left, never to return again. I cannot believe how unprofessional and downright hateful this staff is, and I would not even send my worst enemy to this doctor.

DO NOT SEE THIS DOCTOR!!!!!! – May 13, 2020
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Gilmore?
I really wanted to see Dr. Gilmore but the receptionist in the front is very unprofessional. Today is February 3, 2020 I made it to my appointment at 2pm and she argued with me that I missed my appointment that it was at 9am when I showed her there's text and email to confirm my appointment she told me that I was lying. Went and spoke with another lady after I had the proof that they sent to me to remind me about my appointment. She went asked the lady in the back and came back to the front saying we'll just see you anyway but it was the time I'd my appointment. She said that she spoke with me and confirmed that my appointment was at 9am which was a lie. I've never known it to be ok to argue with a patient especially someone that's not being rude. She has a very snobbish attitude and looks down on patients. I was so disappointed in the service that I recieved. I could not even see the doctor because I could not continue to let her receptionist disrespect me.

Dr Gilmore certainly doesn’t sugar coat anything, she is bold and honest and to the point. She has regulated my hormone levels so that I am sleeping, energetic and feels by great. She has also helped me with weightloss. Thanks Dr Gilmore

I have moved away from the Mobile area, but Dr. Gilmore was my doctor and the best I have ever had. She listened, was thorough, and answered every question I ever had with kindness. I only WISH she was in the Birmingham area. The lady who was mad about having her ovaries checked....that is the only way to detect ovarian cancer. There are no symptoms. She is the only gyn. I have ever had to test for that...the secret killer. Look up Gilda Radner.

i have used Dr Gilmore as my primary physician for nearly 10 years. i have never been anything but satisfied with both her and her office. i am writing this review because i read the nasty things a person said on this service. people need to realize that she is a very good doctor, and always places her patient above herself. she does "tell it like it is". she is a very good doctor with a high standard both as a professional, and as a person. i trust her more than any other.

Used Dr. GILMORE once and found her to be very rude and condescending. She has degraded one of my adult daughters and her two adult daughters. She misdiagnoses and treats you then forgets she did it. Today was the final straw. She was very rude and hurtful to my adult granddaughter, even called her fat. Never again! This poor excuse for a doctor has lost 4 patients plus any others I can turn off her.

I had been a patient for 18 years until 2 months ago. Dr. Gilmore treated me with contempt and made me feel like a all of my problems were in my head. I sought a second opinion and was finally treated with respect. I finally received the treatment that I needed, and it will be a cold day in you know where before I ever set foot in Dr. Gilmore's office again. Don't waste your time on someone who will treat you badly and quite possibly misdiagnose you as she did me.

I do not recommend Gilmore. All she cares about is money and HER time. Horrible bedside manners and staff is equally bad. Not good with documentation and followup. If you have questions about results, she will not speak to you unless you make an appointment ($). Does not listen and will perform surgical procedures for the wrong reasons($). If you want a personal doctor that cares about you, she is not the one. Get a second opinion before any procedure. Constantly follow up/check behind her.

I have 3 children, and of all the physicians I have come in contact with in my life, Dr. Gilmore has to be the most unprofessional physician with the worst bedside manner, poorest decision making skills, poorest attitude, and overall worst experience with a doctor ever! She even spoke negatively about my child with another patient of hers who is my daughter's best friend! Yeah, she's THAT kind of physician!

Dr. Gilmore was able to diagnose and manage a condition that had become debilitating in my life. I am a new person thanks to her expertise in women's health. I would highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with complex symptoms. Her intelligence and diligence combined with kindness and sincerity set her apart from others in her field. Her appointments fill quickly so call today!

I HAVE recommended her to friends. My initial visit with her, she sat at a table with me and listened to ALL my health issues.. She made me feel comfortable talking about my post hysterectomy woes as a 50 yr old. She advised me with professionalism. She listens to me and is done when I am fished telling her what's going on.

Don't have this woman perform surgery because she will end up doing a completely different surgery than what she suppose to. I don't know how she sleeps at night. One of these days, this will come to hunt her.
