I have had wonderful visits with Dr. Kim in the past. This time because he was running late which threw him behind in appointments I felt rushed out of there. He did take the time to get me in to see another physician as a way of making up which I appreciated but this visit wasn't the best.

Dr Kim had treated my mother. When my regular eye doctor said I needed a specialist, I asked for Dr Kim. He was excellent with my mother and wanted him. He explains everything and makes you feel like he came that day for you only and like he has all the time in the world for you. He is really wonderful.

Dr. Kim was not only concerned about me; he was concerned about finishing all the treatments to get the patients and staff home before the impending bad weather came through.

Dr. Kim is the best ophthalmology specialty physician I have ever been under the care of. He's knowledgeable, professional, and very thorough and pleasant to work with.
