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.

Dr Kim is a caring and compassionate Dr. His staff is amazing. I was deeply touched when he asked to pray for me before my surgery

Dr. Lum was very kind and compassionate. He has an amazing bedside manner. He explained the procedure and made himself available to answer any questions prior to the procedure. He was calm and soothing even though I was nervous about the procedure. I believe he did an amazing job and I would recommend anyone to him if they need a surgical procedure performed.
