He has been treating my kids for several years and he is the best. Going to see him is like visiting a relative or best friend.

The only silver lining when my children are sick is that they get to meet with Dr Kim and cheer up. A trip to the Dr's office is almost always guaranteed to making them feel much better... I first met with Dr Kim when I was about to deliver my first born 101/2 years ago. We have found Dr Kim to be a top notch and very compassionate Doctor and trust him completely. Dr Kim is a great listener and spends time getting to know children. We feel we are very lucky to have Dr Kim in our children's lives.

Dr. Kim is a great pediatrician. He cares and will listen to you and will answer all your questions, no matter how many you have. He's sometimes hard to get an appointment with, though.
