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.

Stay Away
I was given an appointment with Dr. Kim as he had the first availability in the dept. He was not thorough with his questions and was only interested in getting out. My appointment was to discuss my symptoms and confirm miscarriage with ultrasound. He has extremely poor bedside manners and kept asking me if I had seen my fetus when flushing the toilet … with a smile. He did not explain why it happened or what to expect from here. I kept stopping him as he was stepping out of the door to talk to him and he would then close the door and stand there. This is an extremely emotional and taxing situation and he did not offer any comfort or medical advice. If I had the option between seeing him and going to the ER, I will 100% go to ER.
