I absolutely love Dr. Kim! I was a patient back in the 2000s, before I moved to AZ. I'm spending a lot of time in STL these days, so when I decided to secure a local PCP, Dr. Kim was the first (and only) one who came to mind.
Being that it had been over a decade since my last visit, I was no longer in the system and had to be registered as a new patient. She's a hot commodity, so it was about a 2-3 month wait for a new patient appointment.
So definitely plan ahead.
Her process is very thorough and efficient, and she is very direct, yet tactful in her approach. You may find complaints on some medical sites because (some) Americans are quick to label directness as rudeness. We have one life, one body... I wouldn't want anyone pussyfooting around when it comes to my health. Shoot it to me straight and fast. I appreciate her level of professionalism and concern.
I also thoroughly appreciate how knowledgeable and diverse she is on various matters. For example, how she acknowledges and recognizes that my needs, as a woman of African descent, are unique, instead of lumping my diagnosis and treatment into the general pool with methods that wouldn't work for or benefit me.
Dr. Kim is an amazing doctor. If you're looking for a PCP or a doctor who specializes in internal medicine, look no further and give her office a call. read more
