Felt like Valor listened to me and took time to answer my questions.
Valor took time to listen to my concerns and provided comprehensive guidance and advice.
My visit there was very pleasant from the beginning and all through the entire process. Valor explained everything to me and what to expect. She kept mind off of the IUD insertion and made it less painful. Her assistant was also very kind and helpful. I’m so thankful to have found this clinic.
Valor Hopes is not who I thought I would be seeing but I am sure glad I did. She was honest, thoughtful, caring, thorough, and smart. She listened and she gave great advice. She was patient and kind. I would highly recommend people seek her out. I'm a new fan.

Valor’s interest and advocacy for women began 25 years ago while working as a social worker in a reproductive health clinic for underserved women. Through this work she was inspired to become a nurse and went on to work as a critical care nurse. She then attended graduate school earning certifications as both a Certified Nurse Midwife and a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner. Her unique experience and path has prepared her to address and advocate for the medical and diverse social needs of the women she serves. Originally from Oregon, she has called Minnesota home for over 15 years. She and her family live in South Minneapolis and enjoy the outdoors, reading, great food, all things fun, and travel.
I am excited to be part of the Southdale OBGYN team serving women as a board-certified Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner and a Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM).
