Surgical
One of Dr. Almdale’s interests is prolapse surgery. “Gravity works on all of us and putting the anatomy back where it belongs helps relieve incontinence and pain for patients.” She is also skilled in highly complex conditions, which are driving hospitals to change many of their traditionally siloed systems. “We are much more collaborative and need to communicate with different teams in the hospital to meet the obstetrics needs of patients.”
Personal
Recently married and new to Minnesota, Dr. Almdale is settling into her life with yoga, walking her dog, hiking and exploring her new state. The oldest of three sisters, it’s no surprise she pursued medicine. She is a third-generation physician, following her grandfather, both parents and ObGyn uncles. In her free time, she enjoys reading, cooking and traveling.
