Joshua Jisu Kim, MD

He was over 30 min late to seeing us AND no one told us he was running behind. We waited about 40 min in the room after the appt time. He was visibly annoyed and irritated. She is special needs and struggles with being touched, he was disrespectful to her disability and talked down to her.

Dr Kim was very thorough asking questions about our son and his condition, and reviewing and clarifying the tests that weee transferred over from another hospital. Dr Kim took time to listen and answer our questions, and provide a detailed treatment plan. We are grateful to have him guide us on this epilepsy journey with our son.

Dr. Kim is the epileptologist who cared for our son in the last 4 years. The kid has intractable epilepsy and had failed a couple of medications when we first saw him. Thanks to Dr. Kim's knowledge, availability, and relentless care, we managed to control seizures completely - twice (there was an onset of new seizure types last year). I also appreciate the fact that Dr. Kim was very diligent in striving to understand what causes my kid's seizures. We used all resources available - blood tests, genetic tests, diagnostic imaging, referral to a reference hospital for potential brain surgery. Overall, we've had a great experience with him throughout this time. We'll definitely miss him as we leave the US.

He is always caring about her health at all times. The only reason I wouldn't recommend him, is most people I know don't need a pediatric neurologist.

We are so grateful for having providence for our health needs

Dr. Kim is excellent at thoughtfully considering his word choice before fully constructing a sentence. It appears he has every desire to represent the child and situation with extreme accuracy. He is kind in his delivery of information in that he doesn't elaborate or offer false hope or use ambiguous language. We appreciate his communication style and his effort put into it.

Took his time with our daughter, clearly listened, and helped us come up with a next plan of action to figure out what's wrong with our daugter.

Dr Kim is always thoughtful and caring with regard to the care of our children. He is patient and listens to our concerns, and addresses them. He doesn't jump to conclusions and doesn't group our children in with the masses when making recommendations about the type of care that is needed. He is not afraid to do the work necessary to help our children, whereas other specialists at Providence seem to regurgitate information out of a text book and are quick to make generalizations. As a majority, providers are failing, but Dr Kim is in the minority because he truly seems to care deeply about his patients

The specialist was very thorough and carefully assessed if further exams were needed. I trust his judgement.
