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. Lim treated my stepdads pneumonia infection in Muskegon, MI. He performed a surgery where they cut open the lung and removed the pneumonia. Dr. Lim is fantastic and has excellent bedside manner. You can feel like you are in good hands with Dr. Lim. He answered all of our questions and had us laughing given the seriousness of the issue.

Dr lim is an excellent doctor surgeon & a really good man. He is excellent in explaining what is going on through the process, he personally stops and explains and talks to his patients. He makes you feel like he truly cares about your recovery and he sticks with you until the end. We consider Dr Lim a friend. He saved my mom's life and we are forever grateful.

My husband was admitted to the hospital for an unrelated illness a few days before his first appointment with Dr. Lim. Dr. Lim came to his hospital room to keep the appointment. We have heard only good things about Dr. Lim, both before and after surgery. These great accolades came from family, friends, and other physicians. Dr. Lim has a great bedside manner. He tells you everything regarding your situation and does so in a way that non-medical people can understand

Such a pleasant and talented surgeon.Dr. Liam preformed 6 bypasses at one time for my husband at the end of Sept.2016.Unbelievable how well he has recovered!Dr. Liam took as much time as we needed to answer our questions.He did not hurry us along live most doctors and the best part is that he had a smile on his face every time we saw him! I hope to never need his expertise but if I do it will definitely be with Dr. Liam! He saved my husband's life and we will be eternally grateful!
