Dr Kim is the kindest most thorough wonderful doctor and he saved my life. I could not have asked for a better provider. The staff is also very kind and thorough they make me feel very comfortable every time I am there. They are wonderful!
Swedish Patient
Dr. Kim was highly recommended by a friend, who had the same cancer that I did. I see why. Dr. Kim explained why I have the issues after treatments, suggestions on improving, & what I should expect in the future. The doctors who performed the treatments did not explain nearly as well Dr. Kim.
Swedish Patient
Very professional. Gave very good input about my follow up appointment.
Swedish Patient
He is a good surgeon. Athough he can seem rushed during in person appointments, he takes the time to write thoughtful, reassuring, and caring messages through MyChart, which I assume he does after hours. I didn't receive any post opp care instructions to take home (besides medication paperwork) and felt lost during my recovery because of that.
Swedish Patient
I am alive and in good health today as a result of the medical care I received from Dr. Kim and the medical community at Swedish.
Swedish Patient
