Patient Reviews
Nov 04, 2016
Dr. Kim was great and so was his team. I initially went there for a second opinion because I hurt my eye really bad in a freak fishing accident. He quickly diagnosed the problem and set me up for surgery the next day. Detached retina along with some additional damage. Surgery went great. I would absolutely recommend him to all of my friends or family if they ever need help with any eye issues. Thanks again Dr. Kim
