I typically have good visits but this time I left feeling unresolved. Was hoping for an open discussion and hoping for another healthcare provider's opinion on potential medication but the discussion was quickly differed. I would expect more than just going through the motions of a well visit in this current times.

Completely shut me down with a worry I had. Blamed it on drinking too much coffee.. I don't drink coffee. Also was rude about me wanting to come off birth control.

Dr. Kim Immediately grasped the complete assessment of my situation. Effective listener, friendly, excellent diagnostician. Offered options for care of which I was unaware. If the medication works, it will relieve me of a 20+ year burden. Priceless.

I have been a patient of Dr. Kim's for many years and always felt she was great. Took plenty of time for my visit and a caring interest in me . This past visit I was disappointed.. I think I was in and out of there in 10 minutes...she seemed very rushed.

Dr. Kim is very knowledgeable and well-respected in her field of OB/GYN. She would be a better healthcare provider to me if she was more consultative with her patients, truly understanding what their concerns and priorities are and prescribing a method of treatment that best suits them, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach to her patients. Also, the recent innovations around caring for women in their perimenopause and menopause phases of life create new opportunities for doctors and patients to partner and collaborate on ideal care and maintenance plans that promote patients taking a more proactive approach to their health, aging, and overall wellbeing.

I struggled to find a gynecologist that listened to my concerns prior to finding Dr. Kim. Dr. Kim not only listens but shows empathy and kindness.

There aren't enough words to say how great Dr. Kim is! Long wait to get an appt but I can see why. Absolutely worth the wait. Friendly, personable, kind, warm, funny, and empathetic. Not rushed. Really listens. Extremely knowledgeable and felt very confident in all she had to say regarding my care. Recommended a few other necessary tests. Explained reasoning. And went over treatment plan in detail. Open to questions. A++++++++ care!!
