“Dr. Kim is very professional and details oriented. The office is clean and staff are friendly. Highly recommended.”
Dan Z.September 28, 2026
“My last few eye exams were nowhere near as personable, patient or attentive. From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted and put at ease. Throughout the entire appointment I was given multiple reasons why I knew I made the correct choice with Dr. Kim and her associates. Dennis and his co-workers provided exemplary assistance and made me feel so comfortable that by the time I left I was already looking forward to my follow up visit. ”

I was able to get an appointment for my daughter the night before. She was seen promptly for her initial exam and shortly thereafter by Dr. Kim. Dr. Kim was friendly, warm and had a great disposition which was perfect for my teenager. She asked her questions about her current contact lenses and glasses, did the eye exam and we were in and out in less than 30 minutes. Highly recommend Dr Kim and Union Square Optical (where we've been customers for years).

October 7, 2024George H.Verified patient
Dr. Kim was incredibly friendly, warm, and helpful with all aspects of eye examination. She went above and beyond to explain my eye images and the treatment needed clearly, precisely, and compellingly without being a bit overbearing. I have a lot of reservations about picking doctors and Dr. Kim was extremely kind, patient, and professional. She was so in tune with my body language and was completely accommodating. I'm definitely going to be inviting all my friends and family to see Dr. Kim for their eye concerns!
