Reproductive freedom for all ♀

About

“I love empowering women! I went into medicine after finding an interest in preventative medicine and I believe that our daily health translates to longevity of health. I enjoy helping women through all aspects of life and strive to care for all my patients as if they were my sister or mother.

Additionally, it is very important to me that your care plan be individualized based on a mutual decision between the two of us on what is optimal for you. I will spend quality time providing education and answering all your questions. You will find I love to draw and use models to enhance your understanding of your condition and treatment options. I look forward to collaborating with you soon.”

Meet OB/Gyn Dr. Danielle Schirm as she talks about helping women through pregnancy as well as other women’s health concerns. “I have a strong interest in infertility and helping people conceive due to my own history and personal story, which means that I help people through conceiving and then through their pregnancy, both normal and high-risk, as well as their delivery, both vaginal and cesarean.”

Danielle Schirm, DO, is an OB/GYN who works at Stellis Health’s Monticello location and delivers at CentraCare – Monticello Hospital and Allina Buffalo Hospital.

Reddit Testimonial (r/childfree)

I was referred to her by my primary family doctor (Holly Hett at Apple Valley Medical Center) after letting her know my wishes. I scheduled an appointment with the OB/GYN clinic at Fairview Hospital in Burnsville and went in for an initial consultation with Dr. Schirm. She asked why I have chosen this choice (preference + family medical history) and why my husband isn’t doing a vasectomy instead. Then she gave me 2 options: getting tubes tied or tubes removed, which reduces the risk of ovarian cancer. I decided on the latter and scheduled a bilateral salpingectomy for 3 months later. She did not have an attitude or was judgmental at all – she was rather friendly the whole time. No one in the office made any comments either. FYI I am 31 and married, no children. This doctor has recently relocated to Monticello.
