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.

Don't waste your time. Dr. Kim is bullheaded and argues with you even when you don't want a procedure. I walked out after a 20 minute argument on a procedure he wanted to do but I didn't want. Best thing I ever did was find another dentist. I also had a crown placed by him and have had nothing but problems with it, now I am stuck with it until the 5 years is up to pay for a new one. He doesn't own up to his mistakes!

Please go elsewhere. My son braces and his teeth became crooked after using the retainer shortly after having the braces off and Dr. Kim said his lip will straighten them out LOL. Well 5 years later they are still crooked. On top of this the lower permanent retainer kept popping off and he wanted to charge to keep fixing it so I had enough and had him remove it and he charged to remove the thing that was defective. I suggest go elsewhere and don't waste your time or money.

I came to Dr. Kim years ago for a root canal/crown and have never left! I was not a fan of dentists from past childhood experiences...but he is very compassionate, understanding and genuinely cares for each patient. My daughter is also a patient, from childhood checkups thru braces and now college. He can do most any dental procedure needed and I like being able to go to one dentist for all dental needs. He and his staff treat all with great skill and compassion and would highly recommend him!
