Does not respond to inquiries no matter how important or urgent they are. Totally unreliable. Keeps door open when examining patient, compromising privacy, even he is asked to maintain privacy. Very untrustworthy. Gave me a completely incorrect diagnosis that was confirmed false repeatedly by others.

Obviously he only cares about ZocDoc patients. He was ride. Dismissive. Didn’t listen or care. Had a doctor in training do most of his work. Will not go back again.

didn't listen well, had me waiting for three hours and hurt me with the injection he gave me. I have been getting trigger point injections for the last 3 years with great frequency and this is the first time I ever had it really hurt and made the situation worse than before I went. He is a terrible doctor. He may be good at research but has all the bedside manner or a badger and actually made me worse than before I went there.

He didn't listen when I said I was not comfortable and made my problem much worse.

I was kept waiting 2 hours past my appointment time. Dr.Kim was very frustrated at scheduling Finally who talks and listens in his office first, going over every detail of what I tried, what has and hasn't worked, then an exam in the exam room. This is respectful.

Dr. Kim is thorough in his exam. Really speaks to you and assesses your body. Discusses options for treatment. Never rushes and gives full attention. Compassionate and professional in every respect.

Thus far Dr. Kim has spent more time talking with me and asking questions about my condition than any other doctor I visited. So far his treatment of a long standing back pain problem appears effective after all other doctors have failed or not even bothered to try to helpme.Staff is efficient and friendly, easy to reach Dr. Kim by phone and he returns calls reasonably quickly
