Dr. Kim is a very caring doctor. He has a wonderful bedside manner, listens to my concerns and makes suggestions after being thoroughly informed through information he gathers from me and with his knowledge of medicine I truly appreciate him and I have often recommended coworkers to him I know he's not taking more patient, but when he does, I know that my coworkers would love to go in and see him. I would personally like to thank Dr. Kim for all his kindness and understanding to myself and my parents as they also see him as well.

I live 50 miles from Dr. Kim's office. I have had times I needed to see him the same day. I've either been very lucky or they have accommodated my need that day. Dr. Kim is my favorite Dr. Of all Dr's. I have. He listens and answers ALL of my concerns. I live in Waslla, and he helps to get needed referrals for testing near my area so I don't have to travel to Anchorage. I recommend Dr. Kim very much.

Dr Kim is the best doctor that I have ever had. He is always very attentive and an active listener. On this occasion I was updating him about my bladder condition.

Providence Patient
Dr. Kim always gives me the answers to all my questions with good explanations.
Providence Patient
Dr. Kim is very kind,understanding, respectful and focused on the patient. He gave me simple tips on how to improve my health. He was meticulous about getting a report on a procedure I had that had not been transmitted to his office as I had requested. He is thorough. He reviewed my lab results with me and gave me a copy. He went over the tests that I must have periodically (mammogram, colonoscopy) and made sure I understood when I was due for another test. One time, when reviewing a pre-surgery order for tests from my surgeon's office, he noticed an omission and ordered the necessary test on his own. I feel very calm and comfortable when I am with him, because I trust him and I know that I am getting the best care. The support staff is excellent - very efficient, pleasant and helpful. A staff member got me a prescription refill written by another doctor - the same day I called! I appreciate greatly the decision of Providence Health Care to establish a senior care clinic, where my husband and I can get such excellent care.

Providence Patient
Providence care is excellent. Unfortunately the facility is impossible to navigate. I always get lost. Dr Kim is an excellent physician, perhaps the best I've ever had. I am so grateful to be working with him. I was trained as a teach of English to non-English speakers and I'd say he needs to work with a speech therapist to improve his English. He can be very difficult to understand. Thank you for the excellent care I'm getting.

Dr. Kim had been my GP for almost two decades. I couldn't ask for a more kind and compassionate physician. He's always available to listen and any answer questions I may have. And I usually do. Honestly, if Dr. Kim ever retires, I'll certainly be at a loss as to who to see. I appreciate Dr. Kim & his staff and hope I never have to make that choice. Thank you Dr. Kim.

Dr.Kim spent a lot of time with us. Never In a hurry to see his next patient. My wife liked him and Is thinking of seeing him as It takes months to be seen by her provider and Is often canceled and rescheduled again months out.
