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.

Dislocated Elbow
Dr. Kim and his assistant Jessica took the time to actively listen, understood the injury and gave me the prognosis towards making full recovery. He was referred to me by the attending E.R physician on the date of my injury because he is highly regarded for his expertise and quality of care.

Worth the travel
I was reluctant to travel 3 hrs from home to see a physician. But after my visit with Dr. Kim, his PA Daryl and Assist Jessica, I’m so happy I did. Everyone was very professional and thorough. I look forward to working with their team to remedy the AVN of my Talus. Thank you.

He left me with a deformed foot after an ankle repair. This has drastically affected my life as I’m now permanently mobility impaired.

Dr. Kim and his staff, both office and surgical, are fantastic. They are all, without exception, professional, efficient, listen and answer questions, and follow-up quickly as promised with phone calls. Dr. Kim an his staff present options with pros and cons of each and typical recovery time. I feel extremely fortunate to have been referred to Dr. Kim for Achilles tendon repair, and am healing well. He also has helped me with my knees without surgery.

I recently had a Total Shoulder Replacement under the excellent care of Dr Todd Kim and his team. It was a very smooth process. I came home the day of surgery, pain control was very well managed, post op recovery was uneventful giving me terrific results.

I took a stumble, came away with a mid foot injury and was referred to Dr. Kim. At the first visit he went over the injury in detail, listed treatment options with recommendations and listened to and addressed my concerns. The surgery went without incident and every single follow on was treated in the same professional manner by not only Dr. Kim but his PA, the nurses and the pro who knew exactly how to slap on a cast. Scheduling was a breeze and when incidents I caused during rehab concerned me (like taking a dive off my knee scooter) I always received a call and/or email to ascertain whether I needed to come in. Highly recommend.

End result terrible. My hip dislocated 1 1/2 year after total hip replacement after a simple act of showering. Continues to cause pain after a short walk and completely locks-up preventing any further movement on a cold night. His explanation tendinitis.

Did a meniscus scope (so I was told) and failed to realize my ACL was completely detached at one end. Had 2nd surgery 6 months later after Dr. Kim just kept saying I needed to rest the knee more. ACL surgery was by a different doctor of course. Just reading the MRI report was able to say the ACL was torn.

A family member had elective surgery and due to his and the Hospitalist's negligence this family member died. They refused to do a Ct scan to rule out strike when 2 nurses with stroke experience told them they suspected a stroke. The patient subsequently succumbed to the evolving stroke. The evolving stroke could have been stopped if he had had the ct scan and been transferred to a complex stroke center such as Kaiser Hospital in Redwood City. Todd Kim and the Hospitalist were both very callous
