About me

Dr. Trimble grew up near Anchorage, Alaska, and then headed across the country to attend college in Virginia. After finishing medical school and residency at the University of Virginia, he moved to Chapel Hill, North Carolina for fellowship, with a particular interest in cystic fibrosis. Afterward, Dr. Trimble spent an additional year at UNC dedicated to CF clinical research and care. His desire to move back to the Pacific Northwest brought him to OHSU in August 2018. He enjoys cycling, photography, cooking, and spending time with his wife and three young boys.

Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network. 

Visit our billing and insurance page for more information.

  1. I was first seen by a resident, Dr Yang, and she was excellent. She shared my answers to her questions with Dr Trimble. He was very thoughtful about my concerns and ordered a ct of my lungs to rule out any new or concerning developments.

  2. Dr. Trimble spent time with me discussing results of my tests and his plan for future follow-up. He was very through in discussing the possible diagnosis of my problem.

  3. Comfortable

  4. Caring, compassionate, articulate - simply the best!

  5. Listened respectfully as though he cared about what I had to say regarding my health and diagnosis

  6. I appreciate how Dr. Trimble is engaged with me during my appointment. He listens and explains everything so I can understand.

  7. He clued right in to my problems & offered up reasonable solutions

  9. Dr. Trimble is very educated and takes time to explain his concerns, lack of concern and what the plan of care is with your opinion in mind.

  14. I could use a lot of adjectives to describe Dr. Trimble, but I will limit them to say that he is simply the best. He epitomizes what every doctor should be and do for patients. My daughter, a nurse practitioner, wishes more physicians were like Dr. Trimble. He is helping me live my best life in the time I have left and I appreciate his care and advocacy more than I can express.
