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.

Yes, he doesn't smile a lot - till the end of the interview/exam when all options have thoughtfully been explored and a course of medical action agreed upon with the patient's enthusiastic consent. Then we all smile. So what's not to like? Yes, 5 stars as it does not get any better then this. Trust me, I have seen enough doctors to know..

Amazing Dr! Not going to lie after reading some reviews i was hesitant to have him as my Dr but decided to give him a chance! Wow was I glad I did! He took excellent care of me, answered every question I had, not rushed very profesional. I think some people just dont like his straight forwardness, he doesnt dugar coat anything. So yes, maybe if you cant handle him being straight honest with you then your not going to like him! Happy I was assigned to Dr Kim Young, surgery went smoothly :)

Very condescending and answered every question with an eye roll and comments such as “I already told someone this”. He might’ve had me and my family confused with another as this was our very first conversation with him, but regardless of whether this is the first or 100th meeting with a patient and his family, there’s no excuse for such a terrible bedside manner.
