Borealis LIFE 2501 East 42nd Avenue, Anchorage, AK 99508

"The field of reproductive care is incredibly intimate and tender for so many women. Dr. Lindemann and his staff understand this and prioritize trauma-informed patient care. My midwife referred me to Dr. Lindemann for a second opinion following a disturbing consultation with another Ob-Gyn in town. When I met with Dr. Lindemann for the first time, I was scheduled for an hour long appointment. Instead, Dr. Lindemann took nearly 1.5 hours with me to describe his philosophy of care and talked me through the pros and cons of various treatment options, anticipated outcomes, and possible complications. He conducted an exam and thoroughly reviewed my health history to ensure he had all the information he needed to move forward safely with surgery. I walked away from my appointment feeling informed, empowered, and listened to. On the day of my surgery, Dr. Lindemann greeted me and my partner with warmth and comfort, putting us both at ease during what could have otherwise been a very stressful time. The surgery went smoothly; Dr. Lindemann was thorough and effective, and my recovery has been easier than I anticipated. From my initial phone call to post-surgery follow up, Dr. Lindemann's team (from front desk staff to his amazing medical assistant) was kind, patient, and generous with their time in answering my questions. Overall, Dr. Lindemann made me feel as though he deeply cares about me and my long-term health and reproductive goals. He is informative, compassionate, and kind. I am so very glad I chose him as my surgeon and could not speak more highly of him and his team."

"I’ve been to so many doctors trying to get help for what Dr. Lindemann suspects is Endometriosis. I tried everything! Planned Parenthood, Alaska Women’s Health Clinic, and multiple other clinics and hospitals in the area designed to treat women’s health. I came to Borealis Life because I was experiencing so much pain that my quality of life has gone down significantly. Dr. Lindemann was able to assuage my fears and address my concerns and despite my usual unease and general distrust with male doctors I LOVE Dr. Lindemann. Please, if you’re feeling at all skeptical about the practice, try it out. We talked for over an hour about my health concerns and made a plan on how to attack the problems at the source. Dr. Lindemann is mindful of his privilege as a white male doctor but is able to use that to help his patients in a way that I rarely witness in the medical field. A true gem! I almost didn’t want to write this review because I want to keep him to myself but it would be a disservice to women and people with female reproductive parts to hide Dr. Lindemann away. If you are like me and want to take initiative with your reproductive health, go see Dr. Lindemann. He was able to get me in for surgery much sooner than any other OBGYN in town, AND he’s got the most experience."

"No one wants to go see the gynecologist. But since we have to whether it is for a regular check up or a problem, Dr. Lindemann is worth going to. I’m a nurse and I know good docs from average and even some who stink. This one is one of the best! Never have I felt so listened to, and understood by physician! This man genuinely cares about me and is willing to partner with my ideas in holistic complex care. We women are complicated! And even though he’s a dude, he totally gets it and respect it and treats it. Thank you for creating Borealis Life, a place where women can feel safe, respected and understood."

"Dr. Lindemann was the first Dr to really listen to me and was able to help me solve my health problems. It’s amazing to live without pain now! He really treats the whole person, not just a little slice of your care. Highly recommend him."

"Dr. Lindemann and staff are so kind and caring! He took the time to explain every step of my pregnancy and made me feel comfortable. I was very pleased with the level of care and professionalism I received even when coming into their new practice. I highly recommend this practice to anyone! Thank you Borealis Life!"
