Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

He was there!
I was only about a couple seconds old and don't remember much but from what my mother has told me, he sounds pretty chill. Hopefully you're doing good Dr. Kim!

My sister says that Dr. Joong Kim did not perform any blood work, or the proper prenatal care. He also told her that he can put her on disability from work because she was very ill and he told her that she won't be getting paid, then one of his workers said "she should be able to get paid because she's a LVN" and he proceeded to ask my sister if she paid taxes. She switched over to Kaiser and they put her on high risk pregnancy due to late prenatal care.

My experience with Dr. Kim was not that well. He seems VERY old fashion. Old equipment. I switched ob and turns out he had to have done important blood work done and it wasn't in his agenda. BESIDES, he has an unforgiving accent. Also, gets frustrated when you do not understand and when you ask questions.
