Receptionists were constantly giggling and gossiping. Appointment was initially rescheduled, and I had to wait almost an hour for my appointment once I arrived. Dr. Shim was kind, but not as thorough as I would have liked.

Extremely helpful, friendly and conscientious. She sought out preventative measures and attempted to understand me and my specific context. Instead of recommending invasive or expensive procedures, Dr. Shim looked first for environmental or personal causes, then pursued more significant medical interventions. All in all, she was extremely welcoming, personable and knowledgable.
