Always clean and welcoming all the people are great . Explained everything well taylor is always helpful and so kind.

I can't recommend Dr. Kim's "Healthy For Life" enough. Everyone has a unique health journey and weight goals fluctuate, but if you are in a place in your life where you are ready to make a change and you want to try new things, to see your body be its best, check out "Healthy for Life" and see how they can help you. You don't have to go through this weight thing alone. I promise. Good luck, and remember, life doesn't have to be hard! read more

Fantastic weight loss medical group. Dr. Kim is very thorough and attentive. He and his medical assistants, Katie and Jay, have taken great care of me. I started taking GLP1 medication in March, 7 months later I'm down 50lbs. I highly recommend this clinic. read more

After struggling for five years with various weight loss strategies, I finally decided to see Dr. Kim and his team. My journey had been challenging, but everything changed when I visited Healthy For Life. After my first semaglutide injection, I immediately noticed a decrease in my appetite and no longer craved sugary drinks or fatty foods. The treatment made it so much easier for me to adhere to a low-carb, high-protein diet. For the first time, I felt in control of my eating habits, avoiding bingeing and cravings. I was astounded by my results in just three weeks. I anticipated losing 5-7 pounds but ended up shedding 17 pounds! I feel fantastic and am thrilled that I didn't experience any negative side effects. I'm so glad I chose to be a patient at Healthy For Life. Dr. Kim thoroughly explained the treatment and addressed all my questions and concerns. His team, Jay and Katie, provided excellent support and motivation. They are knowledgeable and answered many of my inquiries as well. The positive energy is great as soon as you enter the clinic. I highly recommend visiting Healthy For Life! read more

I was skeptical at first since I was always a gym rat and needed to feel all the good hurt associated with progress, i.e. muscle gains and weight loss, but I had a really hard time during and after the pandemic. My wife had experienced positive results and i saw it 1st hand. She introduced me to them for a jump start to my road back to wellness. I have been pleasantly surprised by my own results and appreciate the care I receive with these professionals. I highly recommend them to anyone, especially chubby middle aged men, who want to regain control of their health and weight. read more

I had my first visit last week and was very impressed by the professionalism and politeness of the staff. Sylvia and Crystal were very patient with my questions and Dr Kim was thorough and caring. Looking forward to my healthy lifestyle journey! read more

I've been a patient for a few years, on and off, as needed and not only is the staff great, but it's really easy to re-join the program whenever I need a little bit of help with my nutrition. I'd recommend to anyone looking to start or renew any plans to help with getting your nutrition back in track. read more

Called multiple clinics in the area but what really stood out to me about Healthy For Life was the receptionist/nurse Katie (sorry if I got her name wrong). She was so patient and sweet with me, answered my questions, and made me feel welcome. With so many weight loss clinics in Los Angeles, its nice to pick somewhere that has friendly service. Dr Kim was also great. He explained everything so thoroughly and really helped me understand my different health issues. Really thankful I found Healthy For Life. read more

I have been coming to Healthy for Life for two months for weight management. So far, I have lost over 20 lbs! I couldn't recommend them more! Though I found Healthy for Life via Groupon, their regular prices are reasonable, especially considering that the program works! I had gained pandemic pounds over the last few years and struggled to get them off. I tried very restrictive dieting and though I would lose, I would quickly regain (and then some) once I resumed "normal" eating. With this program, I feel like I got the jumpstart I needed to feel motivated. Plus, I've learned a lot about how certain foods affect my body, which is the knowledge I need to keep the weight off. This program has definitely gotten me in the zone and helped me make lifestyle changes that I plan to continue indefinitely. Also, the nurses are great and supportive; I always feel like they are truly rooting for me. read more

I am very happy with the Healthy for Life team and Dr. Kim. He spends quality time with you your first few visits and the staff could not be nicer and more knowledgeable. From my first conversation to make my appointment to my weekly visits, the entire team has been supportive. I feel like we are doing this together! read more

Healthy for Life- was highly recommended. I start the weight loss program 12 weeks ago and lost 21 pounds! I am so pleased with the results results that I decided to continue for 12 more weeks. I am positive I will lose 21+ pounds. The education on nutrition and knowing how my body responds to the program has helped in my success. Give yourself the opportunity to win! try the weight loss program read more

Love the staff and the results!!! Lost almost 15 pounds in 30 days with their help, thank you so much!!! I recommend healthy for life for anybody who wants to lose weight or maintain read more

Based on my experience. GROUPON DEAL!!! I called to make an appointment for a month and no one answer the phone and left many voicemails with my name and phone number and no one return my call. I had to call a different office to leave a message then they called back. I made an appointment with them. 1 week before the appointment they called to cancel because the doctor is not available. Okay, I am disappointed and noticed my Groupon deal is about to expire. I called the office again and again.... after 2 hours someone answered the phone. I asked if they can squeeze me in before my deal expire... they said no and I would have to pay the price difference. I purchased deals on Groupon is to save money and not pay full prices! Thanks to Groupon I was able to get a full refund due to the lack of customer services at the location!!! read more

Went here for the microneedling with prp and it was amazing here. Even got an post treatment call just to make sure I was ok. Pretreatment they sent me documents to review and surely I didn't since I thought since I've had it done it should be the same however it wasn't. They asked to avoid alcohol 3 days prior which I didn't since appointment was scheduled on Monday following day of super bowl Sunday. I was freaking out as to the aftermath of I were to go on with the procedure. I called and asked. They were very professional and answered all of my questions. Adrienne was very professional. I barely felt the pain because they really numbed me compared to my previous procedure at a different office. The different office didn't even advice me of the alcohol avoidance. Now post 2 weeks and I'm still peeling. My skin is feeling so awesome. I'll def be back and try out their other procedures. read more

Love all the people working here . Very helpful and friendly I have been coming here for years and it's really helped me with my overall health Thanks for everything! read more

I like to stress eat and we'll ... eat. Healthy for Life is amazing! Not only do you have a great staff assuring you stay on track, but the environment is super welcoming. Their programs always help bring me back down. After 2 years I have never fluctuated in weight gain thanks to Healthy. Great program to lose that weight! read more

This is a very a long overdue review!!! I am not keen on any of the weight loss programs UNTIL I witness first hand how effective it is. Surgery come in as instinct to us. We all want the laziest way possible right now, don't we? Reality speaking, we just procrastinate because it can cost an arm and a leg and a Care Credit loan! I heard about Dr. Garry Kim (yes, with 2 r's) from someone close to my heart. He was about to schedule for surgery to aid him lose weight due to other VERY concerning health issues. My influence has lost 60lbs (maybe more) in his 70's and is healthier as he can ever be. With that said, I followed suit. From the moment I called for that dreaded first appointment, a weigh in, and realization of what I'm guilty of stuffing in my body and what helps, it's been a year and 35lbs lighter! No surgeries. No pain. No downtime. Just patience, discipline, and motivation from Dr. Garry Kim and the staff that I'm grateful I got more than acquainted with. That's pretty much a perfect recipe for a healthier life. Now is your turn to give yourself an ultimatum. I'm happy I did last 01/16/2015! It may be TMI but I'm proud to say I was a 14 and now an 8 is fitting loose. It really is flattering not knowing what size you're down to. To all haters on Yelp!, Enough with your excuses, and judging of Dr. Kim and his employees such as scheduling and whatever it may be. Have your physical done and accept how high your vitals are (i.e. sugar, cholesterol & triglycerides). That may be an awakening call for you. I lost 35lbs and you didn't! In all seriousness, it's the best thing you can do for yourself. read more

HFL keeps me feeling and looking my best. My self confidence is at an #alltimehigh ! In two mo the, I've lost 10 lbs. I'm 5 lbs away from my goal weight. A Ketogenic diet is not hard at all. It's a lifestyle now. All thanks to HFL. read more

After a devastating knee injury I gained some weight that made me really uncomfortable. I figured that once my knee got better I could just do what i had done in the past. Well seeing as I was now in my late late 30s that wasn't the case, and thus I needed that last extra umph to loose the last 20lbs that I was carrying around. Healthy for life helped me do just that I'm a healthy and controlled way. They gave me great resources, including meal planning, a free workout class once a week, and they also offer a line of snacks and shakes that are high in protein. But what keeps me coming back to Dr. Kim's office the most is the staff!!! Always helpful, kind, motivational and funny! Katie is a gem, and it's easy to see why she has been working with Dr. Kim for so long. Dr. Kim also offers other services like facials, cool sculpting and Botox. He has before and afters of HIS OWN patients so you can see HIS work... and it is AMAZEBALLS! I'll be getting myself Botox for my birthday this year and I know where I'll be going! Great office. Great doctor. Great staff. Great services. *bonus they do giveaways at the Saturday workout class for facials and such! read more

Love this place!!! I've been coming here for a while and they are very consistent, the meds work great and Dr kim is AWESOME! read more

For anyone wanting to get Botox and is a little skeptical about who to do it with. Do it with a person who is professional and loves what's she does and most importantly is honest about what you need and will make you look beautiful. I honestly recommend Adrienne. She the best!!!! Along with her team! I will see you guys soon read more

Katie and Silvia were great! They are very professional and made me feel comfortable from the first consultation. They helped me achieve my goal of losing 25 pounds and keeping it off! Highly recommend. read more

The best way to loose weight EVER! Dr. Kim and his staff are absolutely amazing. Do weight loss the right way and you'll keep it off! I be been going for about a year and went down so many sizes I'm amazed!!!!! Love them. read more

I'm so happy I have found this wonderful place called Healthy for Life. I must admit, I went to see someone in particular, Adrianne Salgado who is an Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner. The service she provides me is: Botox for my frown lines, and juverderm for my smile lines. If you've ever thought of having any of these procedures, you need not hesitate any longer. Mrs. Salgado not only thoroughly explains how the products can enhance your life, but she goes into detail about what she does with the products, how she administers the products and how to care for yourself afterwards. She truly cares about your well being, making sure you are comfortable every step of the way, and patiently answers all your questions. She uses a needle to administer products and I can honestly say that to be stuck in the face with a needle, I swear to you, I barely feel it. She's definitely a pro at what she does. Not only is she a professional with her technique, but Mrs. Salgado is a professional who handles herself in a professional manner. I realize this is a long review, I usually don't give reviews too often, but I feel compelled because she is good are what she does. read more

Elated! Adrianne, nurse practitioner, is talented, caring and knowledgeable. She's experienced and trusted in medical and esthetics and has helped my skin and face to look amazing! There is no overselling of services AND they have fabulous monthly specials. The place is very professional, procedure room is gorgeous, entire staff is welcoming and helpful, and it has free parking that is protected. Adrianne has easily taken 10 years off my face while maintaining a very natural look. This lady is GIFTED! So happy to have found her and this office. DEFINITELY worth the drive If you're concerned about receiving the right care and good quality care, go here. You'll be happy you did. read more

I have been coming here for 2 no the and they helped me loose 6 lbs ... It doesn't seem like a lot but that is all I needed to loose and the nice thing is that I've kept the pounds off read more

I have been to multiple weight loss clinics within Los Angeles. Some were really effective for short term weight loss goals. Having to sit down with Dr. Kim and discussed with me my current ongoing health problems and our weight loss goal, he practically individualized my options. Dr. Kim allowed me to better understand the rationale behind his approach in achieving my desirable weight. All the staff at HFL were accommodating and personable. I am more than motivated and dedicated knowing that Dr. Kim and his staff have my back : ). read more

Great weight loss plan! Supportive and friendly staff. I recommend to all who want to take off the extra lbs! They also have cosmetic services which look incredible but I have not tried them I have been coming to Healthy For Life for a couple years. The entire staff is helpful and supportive. But Katie is the reason I have not given up and the reason I push through the hard times and have had success. She is the right balance of support and no nonsense. She listens and provides insight and always reminds me to take it one week at a time. When you go, I highly recommend you ask for her as your weekly coach/MA. read more

I couldn't be happier! The staff is awesome... though I only have seen the doctor twice, I'm ok because the team is great! The only issue for me really is the fact that they aren't closer to me, and the drive to Pasadena is far for me, buys it's worth it!! read more

Great staff. Knowledge and pleasant. Getting healthy after some crazy long days working over the past few years! Time to get fit! read more

Ok, first off, I'm not sure this is the right business. It says bellefontaine, but I went to a doctors office on arroyo. But this is the only Healthy for Life listing and the phone number is right. So I need to lose a few pounds for the summer and since having kids, it's been impossible. I find this place on the internet and it's listed as medical weight loss, so I schedulled an appointment. The place is nice. It's a doctors office and the place looks really nice. (My doctors office looks nothing like this). The staff and the doctor are very friendly and they spend an hour with me going over the program details. Very thorough. The program works primarily with appetite suppressants. The diet pills that they prescribe just take away your hunger. So you're eating much less than you normally would. I reached my goal weight pretty easily. I didn't have much to lose, just 15lbs. But it was much easier with the medications. read more

Healthy for Life is helping me reach my goals and I appreciate their professionalism and positivity!

I have been coming here for years! I lost 50lbs and four years later, it is still off! I would not have been able to do this without Dr. Kim and staff. Now on to Adrianne....Amazing! I have had botox treatments for years elsewhere. Not only are the treatments fairly priced, Ms An is a pro. Who knew having facial injections could be so fun LOL I plan to do additional steps with her on other procedures. Katie, Danny, and team. Thank you for making me feel so welcomed and going above and beyond! 61 never felt so good! Karen K read more

Why I didn't write this sooner, I have no idea! BUT...H4L helped me to loose 45 pounds, and (drumroll) I have kept it off for 2 years. I have recommended to friends. Three of them have lost so far, 35 lbs each. This program works, this team is amazing! I continue to weigh in, be educated about my choices, and excerise. I have never maintained this long and see no reason why I shouldn't! I also did Cool Sculping twice and see such a difference in my tummy area. I hope to do more in the future! Alyssa has been my coach, teacher, friend and supporter. She has solutions to weight issues, gives me reasonable goals, and celebrates with me on the wins. Honestly without her, the journey wouldn't have been as fun AND successful! She is a jewel! The entire team is great, Dr. Kim knowledgable and caring. If you have had problems keeping off the weight, look no farther. This menopausal woman has a new lease on life wearing a size 8 (from a size 16!) Thank you Healthy For Life! Karen Kiefaber read more
