A wonderful small dental place also offering ortho! I've been coming for a little over a year now and I've always been greeted with amazing care and friendliness. You'll never feel like you're being pressured into unnecessary work and I love that. I've been to other places where they'll say I need a million things done when in reality, I don't. I came here once and was told what they suggested I get done asap and what I could do in the long run. I immediately decided I would stay here and get my braces done since they also accepted my dental insurance. If you're looking for a dentist who gets straight to the point without wanting to over charge you or make you get extra work done, you need to come here! read more

First time visiting this office, I needed a new dentist after my dentist retired after many years. Very helpful front office. Went in for a teeth cleaning they treated me very well and the prices are amazing, I was pleasantly. surprised. Can't wait to go back. Highly recommend. read more

I have been going to Dr. Kim for the past 10 years and my experience has been nothing but amazing. I was told by previous dentist that i needed all this work done but once i found Dr. kim he told me I didn't even need half the work done that I was told.. He is very gentle and I have not had any problems.. he does his best to try and save your tooth before having to do any major work.. I highly recommend him. The office may be a little out dated but trust that goes to show that he is not money hungry and wont try to get u out of bunch of unnecessary money.. THE BEST DENTIST EVER! read more

I cannot express my gratitude on how caring and compassionate this doctor and his staff are. The whole experience was great! Going to the dentist is not an easy experience for many. I sincerely fear the dentist and I had avoided going to the dentist for a very long time. A few days ago I started to experience a sharp pain on one of my wisdom teeth. I tried to ignore it but I couldn't any longer. My husband had gone to Dr. Kim in the past so I called to see if he could see me. Fortunately enough, I was able to be seen. Long story short my wisdom tooth was not only broken but also infected. Dr. Kim took the proper steps to take care of me. The procedure itself was painless!!!! Of course after you are a bit sore but the removal was done with so much care. When he was done removing it I was in disbelief on how fast and painless it was. I highly recommend this dentist. He genuinely cares for your pre and post procedures. He doesn't make rash decisions and takes the best course of action for your health. read more

Harry is the Man, he will do what your comfortable with, and he is very detailed and gentle

Great for people who want to get in and out fast for exam and cleaning. Facility is a little old but everyone is very nice. Minimal wait

Friendly, I have been this place for few year all way friendly, right price and fast Service I will be back read more

I don't love going to the dentist but Dr. Kim and the front desk manager, Nora and assistants have completely changed my perceptions of "going to the dentist". I've gone to Dr. Kim for over 3 years now for different services. Dr. Kim provides great advice with only you in mind and is very gentle to ensure that you're in as little pain as possible. While it might not be the fanciest of places, the amount of care and detail that is provided is much more valuable to me. Overall, they're the most caring team I've ever met in a dental office and I hope to go to them for many years! read more

The experience with Dentist Harry Kim and his assistants has been great. Disregard for the exterior look of his office, his office is squeaky clean. Both him and his staff are very punctual, courtesy, and professional. He charges his professional fee fairly. My family will definitely go back to him for any future dental work. read more

Had my first appointment yesterday after being referred to them by my cousin. The entire staff was friendly and welcoming. I don't have dental insurance, but they offer a package for x-rays and a cleaning for $120, which is so reasonable. One major perk is that they use an ultrasonic scaler to clean your teeth instead of the old school metal pick, which was a lot more comfortable for me. I've already recommended them to my friends & family. read more

I was referred by my mom and decided to check it out. I needed two cavities replaced. Parking was a breeze, available just right outside. The paperwork was also smooth. I was there on time for my appointment and was seen right away! He took a peek told me what was needed. Dr.Kim isn't like the other Dental Doctors I been too where they want to burn a hole in your pocket with crazy high prices. He was gentle , fast, and kept asking if I was ok during the process. Definitely my new dental office! read more

Over the years I've had to move to several different cities and had the need to visit several other dental offices. These other dental offices were shiny and new, full of the latest fanciest equipment, and I'd see the dentist for maybe a full minute who'd assess that I'd need this and that taken care of, oh and my plaque build up is heavier than average so I'll need to come in for teeth cleanings every 3 months instead of the usual 6. What do I know? So I did and my insurance was charged up the yin yang plus I'd have to pay out of pocket for other services that were deemed necessary by these dental offices. And their receptionists would constantly call to remind me about my appointments and how apocalyptic it'd be if I were to show up late or cancel last minute. Uhhh yeah no more of that bs for me anymore. Since then I've moved back to the greater la area and I'm going to Dr. Kim for my dental needs for the rest of my life/until he retires. He said my plaque build up is average and it wouldn't be the end of the earth if I were to be late for my 6mo cleanings! My god...for years I've felt so much anxiety thinking that if I were to let 3 months go by before a cleaning I'd be facing another $1000+ deep clean procedure. Now I see Dr. Kim every 6mos, my teeth have felt fine and he hasn't recommended any special procedures for any made up problems, and best of all, I feel none of that former anxiety because I know I'm not being conned by some predatory dental office anymore. Dr. Kim and his entire staff are extremely warm and nice and know me by name - I definitely don't feel like just some other nameless faceless patient of theirs here. That's a pretty amazing feeling! This does mean the office is very small and run down - the equipment looks old and the bathroom is small. But everything looks very clean and well taken care of and in my mind it's more proof that this office is honest and earnest. Dr. Kim is an unsung gem. I can't recommend more highly! read more

I have been looking for a new dentist for a while. I looked up reviews on my insurance website, Google, and here. The reviews don't lie. I was 30min early and after I filled out forms took me in right away. They explained everything to me. Awesome staff and awesome dentist. read more

The receptionist was really nice in helping me with my phone appointments. I didn't make it on time because I forgot. They didn't hold it against me and I'm so sorry. Seems like a nice office that I still want to try. read more

Dr. Kim is a wonderful dentist. He does his own cleanings which is awesome. He is attentive and detailed and always does excellent, thorough work. He has a steady hand. I've been to a few dentists over the years. I've had some I didn't like as much. I went to another dental office in the area that felt like an assembly line. Dr. Kim's office is not like that. It is small, and the staff are all very friendly and respectful. I will continue as a patient of Dr. Kim, even though I live a bit further away since I first started going there. It is worth the drive! read more

Recently had my first appointment with Dr.Kim and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a dentist. His staff was very friendly and kind. Dr.Kim introduced himself and thanked me for choosing him as my senators. He explained the tools used to cleaned my teeth and checked if I felt any pain throughout the cleaning. Will be a returning patient. read more

Dr. Kim and his staff are the best! My husband and I have been loyal customers for a few years now and we plan on keeping Dr. Kim as our Dentist for as long as we can. He is always available to answer any questions or address any concerns we may have. Nora is also great! She always takes the time to schedule our appointments during mutually convenient time frames. She also takes care of the insurance claims and informs us of any additional charges. I never worry about being overcharged because after a few years, I know I can trust this establishment to take care of us. We highly recommend Dr. Kim and his friendly staff. read more

Love this office! I am a scary patient and Dr. Harry Kim has got to be the most gentle dentist in Los Angeles. I am currently an Orthodontic patient of Dr. Joanna Kim, and she too is absolutely great. Not to mention the staff is awesome. read more

My son is actually the one that visited the office and couldn't speak more highly of it. He hadn't been to a dentist in years and had very brown, coffee stained teeth. No one commented on the state of his teeth, he was very worried about that. He came home with very clean, white teeth and was so happy. He recommended this office to a friend and told her that they treat you really well, no judging. read more

I HATE the dentist. I haven't gone in, well...let's just say I haven't gone in a very long time. I went to Dr. Kim because of the reviews and my husband goes to him too. I had a toothache and they took me right away, first appointment of the day. Unfortunately, with my non-upkeep of my oral health, they could not save my tooth due to bone loss. I was devastated. While the process of extracting the tooth was as bad as to be expected, I felt NO pain, not even the shot for the numbing. Apparently, I have "deep" roots so it took a little. But Dr. Kim was as gentle as can be and asked me constantly (in a good way) if I was okay. The staff was great. Both ladies knew I was nervous and they assured me Dr. Kim was very nice. And nice he was. Not a fake nice, but a sincere nice. He did not make me feel bad for not taking better care of my teeth. He also showed empathy when he had to tell me that I was losing my tooth. He was direct, to the point, got in, got out but at the same time was nice and made me feel comfortable; never embarrassed for not taking care of my teeth. I go next week for a deep cleaning and filling, yuck....but I learned my lesson and will NOT miss an appointment. Oh, the office. As in other reviews...the office looks a little outdated and a bit odd; like at one time is was a house. But everything was clean and the instruments all in their individual, sterile casings and that's all that matters to me. I would rather have a gentle caring doctor and staff with a simple office then one of those "cool" high tech offices with a doctor who sucked. Thank you, Dr. Kim and the two lovely ladies. While I still don't "like" going to the dentist, at least I'm going to take better care of my teeth. Because of this experience, I'm no longer "deathly" afraid of going. read more

Dr. Kim is a very good dentist! I like my dentist!! How many times do you hear people say that??? Well, I just moved to Gardena and I needed to find a local dentist to get my way overdue dental check up. Thanks to yelp, I found Dr.Kim and unlike the other dental reviews, Dr.Kim had the most consistent, positive reviews. He even has a web site where you can read about his bio, his staff, and you can easily book appointments online. Dr. Kim's humble practice is on the corner of Crenshaw and 154th St. The small waiting lounge is a little outdated but comes equipped with plenty of magazines and a ceiling mounted tv. The receptionist is pleasant and accommodating. The individual patient rooms are clean and each have a ceiling-mounted tv. Dr. Kim, himself, is a young doctor who is, among other things, very polite,accommodating, informative, and thorough. I've visited his office for a regular cleaning, 2 cavities appointments, and a deep cleaning. I have another one scheduled for a orthodontic consultation later too. But during the whole process, he is always asking if you are OK, the assistant is right there by his side sucking up all the water & saliva, and he's fast! He even took the time after to show me how to properly brush. Who knew, after all these years, I will incorrectly brushing my teeth. He actually advised me to get the electronic toothbrush. My childhood dentist, I thought, was the reincarnation of Hitler! Being a patient of Dr. Kim definitely takes away all my childhood fears of going to the dentist. I would definitely recommend anyone to go to his office. read more

I've been coming to Dr. Kim's dental office over the past few years for cleanings, about once every 6 months or so. Used to have Blue Cross Dental PPO insurance before I switched over to Delta Dental PPO. This dental office takes both insurances, I believe. Really caring, helpful, and professional staff. Dr. Kim has been my primary dentist here. Dr. Kim always does a great job with cleanings (pain-free and discomfort-free), is a very sincere and honest person, and employs dental assistants who are very kind and efficient as well. Most recently went in August 2016, where I got a cleaning and an old filling re-done. I would recommend this dental office to anyone around the area looking for a quality dentist. read more

The staff here is extremely caring and polite. Dr. Kim is very professional and do great work. I've been to other dental offices that think of you as a dollar sign. Dr. Kim and his staff actually cares about your well being! Highly recommend! read more

I went in today for the first time because the other dentist office I was going to was taking forever with booking appointments due to Covid and according to them one of my tooth was infected and weren't sure if it could be saved and that I needed a deep cleaning and I needed to get my wisdom removed so I was paranoid because of all this "specially the "infected tooth". I needed to see a dentist asap and a second opinion and this is the reason I decided to look for another dentist and found Dr Kim. I woke up all nervous wondering what he would say (I hate dental procedures) after he saw my x rays he said I just needed a regular cleaning and a filing replacement and my wisdom teeth were not necessary to remove because they've grown out straight unless they were bothering me. He did the cleaning and my filing and I walked out feeling great. I'm so glad I decided to come to another dentist. He's honest and doesn't try to sell you unnecessary things. I'm definitely coming back read more

I hate going to the dentist, I've been to many when I was younger and had a lot of bad experiences with dentists. So I avoided it for a while. It's been almost 9 years and I just moved to Torrance, so it's time to go. I read up on all the yelp reviews and gave it a shot. I have to say I feel stress-free going here. The staffs are all friendly and professional. And the Doctor is always checking to see how I was doing. I've been here three times now. The first time I went, I did a check up which is not expensive. I'm used to check up being in the hundreds just for a simple x-ray. The second and third time I went, was to fill my cavities. The doctor and the staffs really put you at ease. They talk to you. And you know they care about their patients. I've been to other dentists, where they just gossip to each other and you have to just lie there and listen to the whole thing. At Doctor's Kim Dentists, they are focus on you. So it helps. :D It also helps that I don't feel pain. I've been to other places where the numbing doesn't work and I would feel the whole mouth surgery. -_-' But Doctor Kim is patient and gentle. The office is a little outdated, but the equiment is clean and up to date. That's all that matters :) As long as I have a great experience from going to the dentist, I have no problem. I would highly recommend going here. Dr.Kim's dentist will help you get rid of your dentist fears. read more

Let me start by saying " I hate the dentist" . My last experience with a new dentist was horrible. He was rude and unprofessional. Insert Dr. Kim. He was recommended by a coworker. My first appt was 4/27 he examine me and told me the work that need to be done.He also cleaned my teeth. I already knew I needed a few things done. He broke it down from most important to least. First on the agenda was a extraction of a molar that was cracked. The extraction was scheduled for 5/4/18. Upon arrival I was informed by the receptionist the doctor also recommendeds a wisdom tooth extraction (which was already on the list) on the same side since I was going have anesthesia already. I told them to go ahead. Let me tell you I was in and out in 45mins the anesthesia took longer to kick in that Dr. Kim took to do both extractions. I didnt feel a thing I didnt realize he had taken them both out. Not a single ounce of pain. Dr. Kim is friendly, honest and gentle. He does not try to sell you on unnecessary procedures. His staff is also very friendly. I think its only 4 of them. I always find the smaller practices to be better. I am a patient for life. I still hate the dentist but I am glad I found Dr. Kim read more

I really like this place. Dr. Kim treats you right with respect and kind heartedness. It's a small business and yes the building is a little old but you shouldn't judge this place by its cover. It's definitely a gem. That's why I still make my appointments here even after I've moved to San Diego. Dr. Kim's team has integrity and high morals, something that's really hard to find in dentists nowadays. read more

Dr. Kim is #1!!! I absolutely love Dr. Kim & his staff. They are all very kind, helpful and compassionate. You are not a dollar sign here, you are a respected patient....Did I mention that my husband and I travel from Palmdale to see Dr. Kim. No one else compares to Dr. Kim. read more

So, the office looks dated, but Dr. Kim has a gentle touch, which more than makes up for it. He does the cleanings and I've never had any pain, unlike my experience with other dentists. He's trustworthy, never recommending any work, unless he feels like it's necessary. And his staff is very nice. What more do you want from a dentist? read more

I was a new Patient and wish I had never went to my appointment. I waited over 20 minuets and wasn't seen. The office is old and run down.

My wife found this dentist and we have been very pleased so far. We have been here seven times between us, and we are seen at our appt. time not an hour in the waiting room first. Very gentle with that novacaine NEEDLE. Dr. Kim and his staff are very friendly people and they make you feel at ease. read more

I like the fact that Dr. Kim's office is open on Saturdays because I never have time during the weekday. He also takes time to explain what he is doing so I don't feel lost. Also, he does a great job and it is not uncomfortable at all -- I just watch TV while he does his work. I go back every six months, so should you! read more

I love coming to this dentist he's so patient and caring and the receptionist goes the extra mile to accommodate appointments!!!! Highly recommend them-Luz Medina read more

I was referred through a friend to Dr. Kim. I heard good things about him but needed to see for myself. I went in for a regular cleaning and I suspected I had a cavity that might need some attention. Dr Kim is very professional and so is his staff. He did a thorough cleaning and did find a cavity. He was very good at identifying the issue and the cavity filling was very smooth and pain-free. If you decided to see Dr. Kim, you will be happy you did. read more

I always had an issue with dentists starting from when I was a kid...I think I never had enough novacaine so I would always feel the drilling on my nerves...but not with Dr. Kim. He always asked if I was ok and always made me comfortable. He is extremely gentle and does very careful work. Very knowledgeable in his field. Staff is very nice too ... Highly recommend him for dental work thru and thru! read more

If you're looking for a new dentist this is the place for you. Dr. Kim is such an amazing dentist! He's so gentle and friendly and so are all the staff. Everything is clean and tidy. They took their time and made my kids feel very comfortable. They were happy to go back! You know you e found the right place when your kids are happy. I'm so happy to have a new dentist we can trust!! read more

If I could give more than a 5 star rating, then I would! From check-in to check out....I'm SOLD! I'll be referring my family and others there too there..w/o doubt! Easy parking, professional, friendly and efficient staff and provider. Small practice, but it's just what I've been wanting and needing. I'll be back for sure! I feel this practice is honest and that's hard to come by these days and huge in my book. read more

Dr. Kim, is awesome, and so is his staff. Shout out to the ladies in the front!! I've never had to call too far in advance for an appointment. I can usually make a next day appointment, and they've always been able to accommodate me. They're all about their patients, which is hard to come by now. I too was also referred here about 3 years ago, and I've been coming ever since. I've came for cavities, and the usual cleaning, all are amazing. One occasion my cavity accidentally fell out(I was eating right after, my fault), I came in shortly after and he went ahead and patched me back up. read more

Dr. Kim and his staff are the best. I really appreciate the way I am treated when I have a visit. There is no condescending attitude like most other dental offices. But the most impressive thing about Dr. Kim is his honesty. I have been to plenty dental offices who have told me that my fillings were old and needed to be replaced. When I asked him about this he told me that was untrue and fillings do not go bad over time, they only occasionally break and there was no need for mine to be replaced. This let me know that he is not in it for the money and that is commendable. Very friendly, professional, HONEST and great work. I would definitely recommend choosing this offce. read more

I enjoy coming here, Dr. Kim is a very friendly and fast. I normally dislike going to the dentist (all because of a horror movie involving a dentist), but I feel extremely comfortable going to Dr. Kim's office. His staff are all super friendly and helpful!!!! read more
