He was always professional, kind, and considerate. He then hired Garrett Bronken to join his staff. Garrett gave me my last few shots. Garrett too was wonderful. He's easy to talk to, and he advises you step by step what he's going to do for you with the shot. I also received a shot in my shoulder area recently from Garrett, as I injured my back moving a heavy object. I felt better the next day. Dr. Samagh's office manager, Christy, is very efficient and friendly. I am going to miss them all, as I am moving out of town. They are a great group. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for orthopedic and regenerative therapy. They are a wonderful group.

I would not hesitate ever turning to this group if you ever need surgery. They are at the top of game, and have new and innovative ways to get results that others don't. They specialize in areas where others really don't know what they are doing. Trust these people.

He is just such a sweet guy too. Very humble and cordial. He is upfront, tells you what to expect upfront and actually see you himself for aftercare and check ups. His team is also fantastic. Caring and they keep everyone up to date on whats happening when your person gets out of surgery, what to expect and what to do. Just all around you feel that everyone is in the best hands. Hands down, I would recommend him every time and I actually do every time someone asks me about a surgeon here, as I also work in the Medical field.

I have had issues with the knee for the last 3 years and the previous surgeon kept saying everything is fine. Dr Yoo took X-Rays in June of 2026 and determined I had Catastrophic Failure of the Femerol Head in my left knee. He immediately scheduled me for major reconstructive surgery- total knee revision. Dr Yoo is the most Amazing Surgeon and Human I know. From the day I met him to current day , one thing has remained the same. His demeanor and caring attitude for people. He is so willing to share his perspective on the situation and he is also an incredible listener. His compassion for others is so obvious and he always has your best interest at heart. Since my Surgery in August 2026, which was a very complicated and lengthy surgery, I now have none of the crazy pain I had before.Dr Yoo did an amazing job and I am so grateful for him and his team. It is doctors like Dr Yoo that exemplify the professionalism for the orthopedic profession and humanity. This is why peoples review's are so important. people rely on these reviews when looking into making a life changing change. Dr Yoos entire staff is extremley professional and friendly. The energy that Dr Yoo brings is so positive ,inspiring and comforting! Thank you Dr Yoo for sharing your knowledge and giving me my life back. If you are looking for someone who really cares about you and in more than competent, I would contact Grossmont Orthopedic group and ask to see Dr Yoo.

Leaving the Dr's name out…read more... Honestly, I'm a little hesitant to write this review because I still need a physician, and this doctor came highly recommended. Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. I'm not sure which was more frustrating: waiting over **2 1/2 hours** past my scheduled appointment to be seen, or scheduling a virtual follow-up to review my MRI only to never receive the call. Instead, I received a voicemail summarizing the MRI findings. MRI results can be complex, and I had questions about what they meant, my diagnosis, and the next steps. That's a conversation that should happen directly with a patient--not through a voicemail. I understand that medical offices can run behind and that physicians have demanding schedules. However, patients' time is valuable too, and timely communication is an important part of quality care. I truly hope this experience was an exception because I had heard such wonderful things about this practice, but unfortunately, it left me feeling frustrated and unheard. *While I was waiting 2.5hrs for my appt a lady came in and said "I had to come b/c no one answers the phone...while I don't have an issue w/ the nurse calling or emailing me back, I just have an issue w/ time management...be aware the Ortho Dr only works there VERY LIMITED hours and maybe if I was told that...I would have asked for someone else*

He also figured out which disc was causing my pain. I had previous steroid injections and they didn't hit the spot that needed to be hit. This doc uses the steroid epidurals to help diagnose which disc is causing the pain. That is especially important in those of us who have multiple back issues. I am so grateful to him and his entire team. They always let me know if they're running behind and I totally understand why when I realize all the homework he does before seeing you and making recommendations. When surgery day does arrive, hopefully down the road, I will know I'm in very good hands.

I am now 3 months post surgery with Dr. Kim and feel comfortable providing a review of him, his…read moreteam, and the surgery he performed on me. In short, I highly recommend him and his team for anyone facing a situation similar to mine - being told that my lumbar spine was "horrible" and that I needed fusion from L2 to S1. While I still may need such an invasive surgery some day, I am happy that the day is not now - thanks to Dr. Kim. I am 71 years old and have historically engaged in a very active lifestyle. I began having low back pain over 14 years ago, but it resolved on its own after about a year. I was then back to playing golf, hiking fairly long distances, doing heavy yard work, and attending yoga classes. But the pain returned and an MRI revealed severe problems throughout my lumbar spine (severe degenerative disc disease, severe facet disease, severe narrowing of the foramina, and scoliosis). It got to the point that I could not walk two city blocks without stopping to sit down or bend over. Epidural injections did not really help. I consulted a neurosurgeon who performed traditional decompression surgery at four levels (bilateral laminectomies, foramaminotomies, and partial facetectomies). This surgery and the follow up physical therapy helped, but did not get me back to where I wanted to be. Six months after this surgery my neurosurgeon reviewed new x-rays and a new MRI and opined that I needed lumbar fusion. I did not want lumbar fusion and opted to explore other possibilities. I tried acupuncture, but it not work for me. Neither did more epidural injections. Because standing and walking very much increased my pain, I was forced to manage my pain by seriously limiting my activities. I continued to follow up with my neurosurgeon and research other possibilities. Finally, my neurosurgeon suggested that I talk to Dr. Kim for a second opinion. Dr. Kim did not jump at the chance to perform surgery. At first he wanted an updated MRI, as well as all of my medical records. After his initial review he was not sure that he could help me. He then wanted a CT scan. After reviewing that imaging, he decided that he could probably help me with the LESS procedure. Since my pain was focused in my left thigh, he decided to address it by only doing surgery on the left side of my spine at 3 levels. As I mentioned at the outset, I am now 3 months post surgery. I have been through physical therapy and I am back out on the golf course, hiking, and attending yoga classes. I just returned from a two week vacation in Europe. There I walked a lot of cobblestone streets and climbed a lot of stairs. My Apple Watch recorded 12,000 to 14,000 steps on 5 or 6 days and nearly 19,000 steps on another day. All without the kind of pain that I was getting before when I went over 8,000 steps in a day. I could never have pulled that off without Dr. Kim's surgery. When people ask, I now declare the surgery a success. While I am not completely pain free, I am doing 100 percent better than I was doing before the surgery. On the negative side, I had to pay out of pocket for Dr. Kim's surgery fee. While that hurt, the fees for everyone else involved in the surgery was covered by Medicare. I also had to travel to San Diego for the surgery, but I now consider the surgery fee and travel expenses to be money well spent.
