Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

We have an elderly neighbor and friend whose sister took her to her appointment with Dr. Kim they were 10 minutes late for her appointment and Dr Kim and his staff refused to see her. I recomend everyone boy cot Dr Kim and his associates.

Dr Kim is very thorough and concerned about your health. Thankful I am no longer with Atrium health. Your appointments are scheduled so you have needed time to discuss your health questions. So thankful I found him. Amelia Scala

My husband and I had to find a new Dr since we moved. We saw Dr Kim in June and were satisfied with his care. My main concern is the office help. They switched over to a new computer program and I had to give them the info 3 times and now I am receiving bills that our medicare supplementary insurance supposedly didn't pay. We have never had to pay any fees for any other Dr. since we have excellent insurance. We have had this coverage for my husband for 26 yrs and he has had 5 operations and been to many specialists and didn't have any bills that were not completely covered! I have had this coverage for 18 yrs. and I got some bills in the mail recently from this office. This is a real bother for me to keep calling the office and trying to get some answers. I wish the office manager would be more organized or be available.

Dr. Kim has been my doctor for 12 years and is very competent and caring. His recommendation of a special diet resulted in clearing my clogged arteries. His interest is in treating the patient with wholeness, including the latest innovations in health care. I cannot say enough good things about his care.
