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.

I did not have a very good experience with Dr. Kim. She was not very polite or friendly and never bothered to shake my hand upon entering the room and when she left. She also refused to prescribe antisuppresant pills to help me lose weight. Her solution was to recommend that I attend a nutrition class! I thought that was laughable and inconsiderate considering I am severely obese and have sleep, pain and other issues because of my weight. She also denied me Norco for my back pain.

Best, most caring doctor I've ever gone to. So compassionate and kind, and she really listens. I'm heartbroken that she moved to California!
