Patient Reviews
Nov 17, 2021
My subsequent appointments were to check my infected breast, Dr. Kim saw me every week until I was completely healed. About 4 years after the surgery I had mastitis and even though I had no appointment I went to CCRMC just to see if she could squeeze me in, the clerk was wonderful and took down my symptoms, Dr. Kim agreed to see me, examined my breast and ordered a medication to take care of the problem. I was so grateful for her help and when I told the nurse how wonderful she had been to me, she told me that Dr. Kim was going to get to leave early because she didn’t have any more patients to see, but then she took me! She’s such a caring and unselfish doctor and human!
