Patient Reviews
Oct 24, 2024
Dr. Kim is very knowledgable and explains everything in detail in terms that a patient can understand. He is very patient listens, to my concerns, and truly cares for his patients. He took extra time to explain the surgery process with me so I could understand what he would be doing during the surgery. The day of surgery, he made me feel at ease with his confidence and concern for me. Following surgery, he visited with me and my husband. Today's follow up visit was another example of his compassion for his patients as well as the care he provides. Dr. Kim is the best spinal surgeon and I highly recommend him .
