Dr. Arthur Lim, MD

Dr Lim is an excellent urologist. He is thorough, explains all options for any treatment you may need and caters his recommendations to the patient's needs. My highest recommendation!

I took my 82 year old mother for her appointment, and my sister took our mother for a follow up appointment. This doctor should be removed from his practice. My sister and I both agreed he is uncaring, unprofessional, unprepared, aggressive, and incompetent. He provided no explanation of the test we waited to get and no follow up. All the other negative reviews are totally accurate. I’m praying this man be removed from his practice.

Probably one of the worst doctor visits of my life. This guy seemingly does not care about a single thing except his own personal time. When I tried to explain my issue, he questioned me like a criminal. And when I struggled articulating my words due to the stress he was giving me, he berated me about it. I don’t know what I did to provoke him, I was nothing but nice. He came into the appointment late, seemingly unprepared. He latched onto one thing I said, ignored everything else, and then made the problem worse during examination. I’m actually lying in bed in pain right now. After the long process of waiting months to get a referral and appointment it feels that I was implied to be stupid, or a liar, and cast away, with my problem worsened.I won’t go into much more detail because I genuinely feel threatened by him, and don’t wish for any further issue. But if I could give this guy zero stars I would, spare yourself.

My husband went for a biopsy. Ever since he developed an infection. My husband is on his 6th course of antibiotics, and had an MRI today. My husband had the same procedure twice in the past 10 years in the East coast & he was perfectly fine.

After ruling out other possible causes, went to Dr Lim at Carolina Urology Partners in a quest to relieve pelvic pain that developed shortly after spinal surgery in 2021. During a supposed DRE, he severely injured my prostate. He completely ignored my questions and his staff covered for him. His medical knowledge is questionable and his protocols are barbaric, to say the least. I highly advise anyone looking for a competent Urologist to avoid him!

Went in with my father after he had a stroke to get a catheter removed and he said he can’t go on his own without even an examination and said he’ll set up a nurse to change it every month. He seemed more upset that my father was on blood thinners so he can’t operate on him. He said come back when his a fib goes away and when I asked him if that was possible he said no. Not funny after my father had a stroke and has issues understanding. He said that now he has to live with UTIs which is marginally better than having an operation that would make him bleed out. Seriously, who does says this?? This guy is the worst and is of no help whatsoever. Definitely won’t be back, do yourself a favor and avoid this very unprofessional provider.

Worse urologist I have ever seen. He talked about another patients "issues" right in front of my husband and I, complaining that the man only wanted more of a certain personal prescription. I was horrified walking out to the waiting room and seeing this patient and his wife sitting there. His bedside manner was crude. Even though my kidney stone was tiny, less than 1 mm, he wanted to go in and remove it right then. It was not blocking and it was not a danger of blocking. My pain was minimal. But he still excepted to go right in and get it. I had to bring a copy of my CT scan from the hospital and to read it he had to use his office computer. So he took my husband and I in there and loaded it up. while it was loading he went through a couple things on his desk. He proceeded to talk about another patient and then called in a passing nurse to call this patient and tell him a couple of personal things about an issue he was having. Very unprofessional! I never saw him again.

I thought Dr. Lim was amazing. Sure, he's direct and to the point, but that's something I appreciate. He's extremely knowledgeable and did an amazing job putting thing in terms anyone could understand. I think the appointment wasn't rushed, but it was efficient and quick. I have to go back for a procedure and I'm confident Dr. Lim is the one to do it. I will say my only complaint is that the office couldn't handle a digital insurance card, which is the only way my insurance cards come. She said I needed to print it and bring it next time, which defeats the whole purpose of a digital insurance card. Hopefully they'll find a way to move into modern times when it comes to stuff like that. This is the only office that's had issues with it.

I hope my visit with Dr. Lim was just an abnormal day. He did not read any of my charts, left after coming in for 5 minutes to then go and read the chart. Trying to figure out reasons for pain and discomfort, I was told he can't anything by him yelling "What do you want me to do!?" Was told I am not telling the truth after trying to explain past kidney procedures, all of which are in my chart that he said he did not like to read. He did not like to read other doctors notes... More issues occurred in the appointment including using vulgar language. I am in shock that this was a doctor and hoping that he was just having a bad day. Whatever it was, was unacceptable and unprofessional. Save yourself the time, money, and upset and go elsewhere.

After going to the ER in Pineville, Dr. Lim diagnosed and did a procedure to remove kidney stones in both my kidneys. He inserted stints and explained calmly and clearly my condition and how he persevered to reach my stubborn and embedded stones. He is easy to talk to and knows his stuff.

Excellent. When you are tired of getting the run around from other doctors, go see Dr. Lim. He'll fix you. He gives you detailed explanations in a language anyone can understand.

This reckless Doc was almost about to kill my husband !! We went there with high hopes due to my Husband's Prostatitis. Urologists are supposed to massage the prostrate very Gently especially when it is inflamed already. But Husband was almost Pain Free after a lot of Herbal Treatments and Diet changes. But we still made this trip to this Doc to make sure everything was ok- he Squeezed/Pinched the already delicate Gland so hard my husband began to cry as if he was being "Deliberately" Tortured

Some people might think Dr. Lim is arrogant - I disagree - he is very confident and that is what I like about him. He does see a lot of patients but always takes the time to review my history and become "reacquainted" with my story.

I was going to a specialist for 8 months and he couldn’t fix my problem. I got to Doctor Lim for one visit and he was able to find and fix my problem. He is the best Doctor I have seen.

Dr. Lim was the Urologist who showed up at the CHMS-Pineville early Sunday morning when I had an emergency procedure to insert a catheter due to UTI and BPH. He ended up taking me to the OR to do the procedure after 3 repeated failed attempts by ER nurses. Four days later, he performed a TURP to open up my Prostate. I couldn't be more happier and satisfied with the results. He is a dedicated professional who treated me with a sense of urgency. Thank you Dr. Lim.

Dr. Lim and his team were amazing. I ended up being diagnosed with Lymphoma, but before that they were critical in getting me to the right tests and doctors. They did everything with a sense of urgency, care and clarity. I was very happy with the entire team and would definitely go back to them for any sort of urology care. He spent plenty of time, gave thorough and understandable explanations and really knew his stuff. His team was equally focused on providing great, timely care.

Very direct and down to earth Doctor. Made extra effort to schedule procedure to remove kidney stone as quickly as possible (same day) when he determined I wanted to be aggressive in its removal. Went to additional effort to remove stone intact in order to minimize recovery time, discomfort and additional office visits. Also have impressive souvenir now... not inside my body. Man's got style.
