Appointments on time, answers all questions. I trust him-
So far he’s replaced two shoulders, and my recovery has been awesome. Will have one knee done in January and I have no doubt it’ll be the same thing one of the best orthopedic surgeons I’ve ever heard about and had a pleasure to work with.
It has been a long process dealing with my shoulder issues. Dr. Kim is an excellent doctor and surgeon. My recovery is going extremely well, range of motion is way ahead of schedule. Strength will still take some time, but still much better than it was before surgery. One of my happy moments was about 6 mos post surgery, I was able to throw a ball about 30 feet with minimal effort. I hadn't been able to do that in over 10 years! Thank you Dr. Kim!
He did a great job explaining and didn't feel rushed.
Listens carefully, provides great care! I value his opinions.
Dr Kim was great, very helpful and professional with the answers to my medical condition.
Always informative, helpful, and thorough.
Great services Thank you very much
