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.

Love her!
Dr Shim is great. One of the best dermatologists I've been to in USA. She is very good and doing my skin screening checking for cancer signs in my birthmarks. See looks really well everywhere and takes photos to keep track. So sad that she is leaving my insurance so now I need to find a new doctor. It will be hard to find someone better than her. She is also very kind!

I have been going to Dr. Shim for at least 8 plus years to rid myself of various skin cancers that pop up due to all the days getting that So.Ca. tan. Sometimes the Mohs procedure is short and other times it may take a few hours, but it is done in one day. No more removing a lot of tissue to be sure all cancer cells are removed. The results in all instances have been amazing, with four on the face almost invisible. My wife and I are extremely satisfied w/our experiences over the years.
