Great dentist! Great office! Cindy did my cleaning and was super skilled. Dr. Kim has been the best dentist I have been to. Modern equipment, clean and friendly. Great job on my teeth too! read more

After my childhood dentist retired during COVID, I spent a while looking for someone new and finally landed with Dr. Steven Kim. He's efficient, straightforward, and honest, which I really appreciate. Dr. Kim does the cleanings himself, which is rare these days. He doesn't waste time or over-explain, just gets right to work and you leave knowing your teeth are truly clean. read more

First time here and it went better than I expected. The nurse was quick and respectful and the doctor came in shortly after. They talked through my symptoms and looked through my past visits. I didn't feel judged and they offered a few options that actually made sense for my routine. read more

Dr Kim truly lives up to his reviews he put in two implants and the entire procedure and recovery was painless, literally the best Dentist I've had work on me and I'm 52 read more

I love Dr. Steven Kim., and his staff. Dr. Kim is incredibly skilled. I went in to see him based on his amazing Yelp rating, for a root canal. I had consulted four other dentists prior to seeing him. They all suggested implant. Dr. Kim was the ONLY one that was up to the challenge of the root canal. To top it off, he said" if I am unable to complete the root canal, I will apply all the money from root canal to the implant". How incredible is that! He not only completed a nearly impossible root canal but did an impressive job. Dr. Kim has an incredible demeanor and best bed side manner. He is very soft spoken, explains every step, answers your question patiently in a very soothing gentle tone of voice. His staff is very friendly and accommodating. His fees were below the other dentists too. I would give Dr. Kim and his staff 5 star rating. He took care of my teeth and I felt I was in capable caring hands. I would highly recommend Dr. Kim. His specialty is root canal and implants. Thank you. read more

The best!!! Been a patient of Dr. Kim since 2007. He's worked on my root canals and had no issues at all. He's meticulous and a perfectionist. Highly recommend! read more

I highly recommend Dr. Kim. He is a great dentist. He's very professional, kind, efficient and thorough. He takes the time to do a really good job. Thank you, Dr. Kim and your staff! read more

I changed dentists a while back and randomly picked Dr. Kim.....I AM TOTALLY GLAD I DID!! He and his office are great! He is straightforward and honest and very personable. He is very good at what he does, I had to have a root canal and I had never had one before. After hearing horror story after horror story from people, I went in with expectations of impending doom and suffering....but yet when it was all over I was left to realize, it wasn't bad at all and was painless, then came to realize because Dr. Kim is just that good! He even saved my tooth that was badly chipped! I especially like that even on normal cleanings, he does it from start to finish, my former dentist had hygienists that would do it, then they'd stop by at the end, take a peek, ask how's life and off you went. Starlite, the receptionist is very friendly and will work around a busy schedule like mine. I would refer this office to anyone that wants to have a pleasant experience at a dentist....as rare as it may seem! read more

I have always had problems with my teeth and to be honest was always terrified of Dentists! Needless to say my teeth suffered. Well washing my face one night last month I felt my front tooth cave in and crack and by morning time...it was gone!! I called Dr Kim's office next day Monday morning as a new patient and also an emergency. Starlite answered and she had me come in that morning and was scheduled for root canals and posts and crowns...just like that!! I felt so comfortable and cared about . Dr Kim is very gentle. No pain whatsoever And they worked with me financially. I have a lot of work that needs to be done and feel so comfortable NOW going to the Dentist. I also have referred friends to Dr. Kim. Thank you so much Starlite and Dr. Kim. I am so grateful. read more

Dr Kim has been my family dentist for years. He did braces for my son, and implants on my husband. Excellent at everything he does. I would highly recommend Dr Kim to everyone! read more

Dr. Kim is the best dentist in town!! He knows what he is doing and the pricing isn't outrages! He's done my braces when I was younger, cleanings and most recently wisdom tooth extractions! He's straight forward and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Dr. Kim! read more

Been coming to Dr. Kim for over a decade, and I can't recommend him highly enough. He fixed it a lot of problems stemming from substandard care from the past and I've had no problems since. Thank you Dr. Kim! read more

I came in today because I had a bad tooth ache and no insurance. The lady who spoke to me on the phone said I could drop in for an x ray to check out my problem for $35 with no strings attached. I came in and was seen immediately. Everyone was super friendly and when the x ray came back looking good they checked my molars and told me my wisdom tooth was the problem and would need to be pulled out by another doctor. The lady who I originally spoke to charged me $30 instead of $35 and gave me a free tooth brush. :) I was in and out in 15 minutes. Overall, I was very pleased with how friendly everyone was and how quickly I was helped. I will definitely be coming back. read more

Dr Kim is a awesome dentist ! I broke my tooth and needed a last minute appointment and I was fit in immediately. The service was top notch from check in with his Receptionist/Medical Assistant to being seen by Dr Kim. Great team they even stayed past closing time to fit me for a crown I desperately needed.Will definitely recommend Dr Kim to anyone needing good care. read more

Wow! What a great experience! Never had such great care but most importantly expertise! The receptionist is amazing and fit me in right away for a broken tooth. Excellent service...old school and cool... the best ! Thank you Dr. Kim and Starlight! read more

Had my teeth cleaned today and it was a great experience . I normally dont do well with cleanings because my teeth are very sensitive . Dr Kim made me feel comfortable. Glad to have found a great dentist. Looking forward to my next cleaning! read more

Wow. If I could give Dr. Kim six stars I would. My little girl was sick with three nasty deep root cavities requiring a complex pulpotomy. Every dental office I called could have cared less; endless digital options, only asking me about insurance, being clueless, uncaring, arrogant or "who gives a sh*t" attitude. A work associate recommended Dr. Kim and I called. He answered and was attentive and worried for my girl. He said not to worry about the other admin stuff; just come in and let's stop my daughter's intense pain. He took us the next day and quickly he performed three pulpotomies flawlessly; no pain, no discomfort and my daughter came out so happy that she was no longer in pain. THANK YOU Dr. Steve. You are truly a jewel of Watsonville!! read more

I honestly like this place. I never felt so comfortable with any dentist before but Dr. Kim has make me change my mind about my visits to a dentist. I highly recommend this place, this dentis. Thank you Dr. Kim. read more

heavy accent, hard to understand, doesn't let you know what he is doing every step of the way. Won't prescripe anything stronger than Ibuprofren OTC even with an abcess! Steer clear read more

My husband and I moved here a couple months ago and it was important for us to find good caring dentists and doctors. Dr. Kim was is just that. He is very gentle and informative. I personally had not such fond memories going to the dentist but after my first visit to Dr. Kim's office I felt at ease and look forward to future visits without any anxiety! His staff is very warm and welcoming as well. My husband and I made our first visit together and we could not stop talking about how kind Dr. Kim and his staff is and his work on our teeth was really good without pain. We feel really blessed to have him as our denstist, thank you Dr. Kim! read more

Just came in for our yearly check up and cleaning and we still can't be happier. Dr. Steven Kim and his staff are so friendly and gentle. There was no pain at all! read more

I first went to Dr. Kim when my dentist retired. He was my mom's dentist and she was very happy with the crown and implant he did for her. I had a root canal done and he made me feel completely comfortable, it was pain free! Dr. Kim is very thorough and professional. He is by far the best dentist around town and I highly recommend him. read more

Professionally competent and reasonably priced. Very pleased with the three implants he did which is the main reason for this high review. It took me three other dentist before I found Dr. Kim so my standards are fairly high. I would definitely recommend Dr Kim and in fact I have recommended him to friends. read more

LOVE Dr. Kim & Starlite ! Comfortable and happy at this place, they really make you feel like you matter and work with you. I couldn't be happier with the service ... read more

Dr Kim and his friendly staff have taken excellent care of my family. He does cleanings and check ups himself. I have had some dental surgery and the out come has been excellent. Starllite makes sure we are notified of all appointments and insurance billing has been easy. I strongly recommend Dr Kim read more

I moved here several years ago and needed to find a new dentist. I visited several and was not satisfied. I am very particular about dentist' offices being clean. I also have sensitive teeth and need ultrasonic cleaning. Old fashoined scraping leaves me with bleeding, sore gums. Dr. Kim's office earns 5 stars!!!! Their office is very clean. Everything is always nicely sanitized. I have the ultrasonic cleaning every 6 months and Dr. Kim does it himself. He is very thorough and gentle. The staff is very friendly and the receptionist/office manager is such a sweetheart. She's given me discounts because I don't have dental insurance. Dr. Kim has many certificates and appears to keep up on his education. He is also an orthodontist. HIs calm demeanor always puts me at ease. I have also been very impressed that he does not recommend any unecessary dental work. I have had dentist in the past try to sell me on services I don't need just so they can make extra money off me. Dr. Kim is very honest and he has earned my confidence. read more
