Dr Kim answered all my questions and very supportive for my well being
Dr. Stephanie Kim is an exceptional lipid specialist. From the moment our conversation began, she listened deeply, asked thoughtful and probing questions, and created an environment where I felt truly heard. When I recalled something I hadn't originally mentioned, she welcomed the interruption, ensuring every detail was considered. Her warm and welcoming demeanor made it clear that she genuinely cares about her patients.What impressed me most was her remarkably comprehensive approach. If a topic extended beyond her area of expertise, she didn't dismiss it-instead, she thoughtfully guided me to the right specialists. She also laid out a clear, well-structured plan for next steps, making the path forward both understandable and actionable.Later that day, I spoke with Dr. [...], a highly respected lipid expert and a neighbor of mine. He knows Dr. Kim-perhaps better than she realizes-and he told me I was lucky to have her as my doctor. I couldn't agree more. Dr. Kim is a consummate professional with deep expertise and a truly kind heart. I'm grateful to have been in her care.

Dr Kim is a fantastic doctor. She listens, communicates, and teaches incredibly well and easy to understand. I recommend her to anyone who needs her specialty
Dr. Kim goes above my expectations to inform me of my diagnosis and her concerns about my health. She often calls me instead of her office staff to discuss next steps and clarify test results, all of which I appreciate very much.
I was so impressed when Dr. Kim called me herself the day before my appointment to see if I could come early in the day [...]. She was very fast, efficient, and so polite.
Dr. Kim gave us additional time to discuss a myriad of questions which we really appreciated!

I like the way my Dr. explained how my diabetes [has] been, because they monitored the results of my sensors. What I am doing good and what I need to do to better my condition.

Dr Kim is the best!
Dr. Kim is fabulous-very knowledgeable and creative and caring. I like working with her.
Dr K showed zero interest in engaging with me in a true discussion about my health. After four visits, I no longer feel comfortable asking her questions because I find her to be dismissive, defensive, and condescending. It's really discouraging and left me emotionally wrecked about the subject. I personally feel that she doesn't take me seriously [...].I don't particularly trust she listens to me and I really am convinced now I need to switch doctors.
Dr. Kim is one of the best providers I've worked with. She is empathetic and listens to my needs and concerns! I feel comfortable to talk to her.
Dr. Kim is so knowledgable about diabetes, she had great insight and ideas, I so appreciate her.
