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.

Avoid this man. Sarcastic in contact with me; belittled disability. Instant compliance to his assessment demanded. Self-righteous about doing it his way. Unable to demonstrate sensitivity and compassion.

Dr Shim is extremely knowledgeable and he truly cares for his patients. He detected a form of sleep apnea that other doctor's had missed. His sleep study was outstanding and the expense was much better than what I had had at a previous sleep center that failed to recognize my condition. I am using the C-Pap machine and feel more rested than I have felt in the last ten years. He is a kind person and a careful listener. His staff is also exceptionally conscientious, warm and professional.

A nice man that cares about his patients. He takes the time to talk with you and ask questions so you do not feel like a 15 minute slot. I trust him as my doctor and that is a huge complement.
