Dr. Kim was excellent and so was the nurse and staff! I was seen almost right away, and appreciate show thorough Dr. Kim was, felt he listened, and appreciated his recommendations and help. Highly recommend!
From the moment I scheduled my appointment, through the appointment and now after the team at the doctor's office has been amazing. I pre-registered via an email link sent to me so no filling out all the usual new patient paperwork when I arrived, they were expecting me when I arrived, and I only had to wait a few minutes. Dr. Kim was patient, kind, informative and never made me feel like he was rushing to get to next patient. He took the time to review my medical history and made sure to review all the age-appropriate testing and get them scheduled. They drew blood at the office and the next day (today) all of the test results were posted to my chart and the doctor had already ordered and informed me of new medications and concerns regarding bloodwork done. Can't say enough positive things about my visit and post visit experience, certainly not what I have experienced in the past, a real breath of fresh air.

Verified patient
Dr Kim was very thorough and did not rush the visit at all. He gave me candid advice, encouraged lifestyle changes and OTC products rather than being quick to jump to prescriptions. We covered 5-6 topics over about a half hr and I came away with tangible, easy to achieve actions for each. Highly recommend.
Dr. Kim was direct, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. I highly recommend for anyone seeking a highly efficient doctor’s appointment.
Very thorough and quick! Staff were very nice.
Verified patient

Verified patient
He's a great dude! Super easy to talk to and a great listener. Very relatable. Insurance went through with zero issues and the office is a really nice space.
Verified patient
The physician was straightforward, kind, and addressed all of my concerns. Everyone in the office was very patient as I had my son with me. I am more than happy with the care I received.
Verified patient
Abrasive but concerned
Verified patient
Very caring and knowledgeable.
The whole experience with Zocdoc and UChicago Medicine was very good. It was super easy to schedule an appointment. I could schedule a visit literally for the next day. Once scheduled, the doctor’s office contacted me to confirm appointment via text. They also had echeck-in to complete formalities so lot of in-person time was saved when I went for the actual visit.
Verified patient
Dr. Kim was amazing! He was very friendly and thorough. I haven’t been to a primary care Dr for awhile so I bombarded him with every question I could think of. He didn’t make me feel rushed or that I was annoying him at all. Would 100% recommend him.
Verified patient
I wouldn’t go back to the doctor. He was very dismissive about my worries and after he ordered tests, he did not even explain the results.
Both the doctor and the nurse Kimberly were very friendly and professional. Dr. Kim also contacted me personally the night before because of a special request I had put in my form. I also get lightheaded during blood draws, and Kimberly went the extra mile to make sure I had everything I needed to be comfortable - she even got me snacks since I had fasted through breakfast. Stellar from start to finish.
Verified patient
Edward was the best doctor I've ever met. He is a good listener and tried to figure out how to help us out. His description was very clear and made us very comfortable. I definitely recommend him if anyone looking for a new doctor and I am very grateful that I could meet him.
Verified patient
Dr. Kim is thoughtful, efficient, and an active listener. I felt empowered in my healthcare and that my experiences and opinions were valued and taken into account. I would recommend Dr. Kim to anyone looking for a new doctor.

Great doctor and staff. Pleasant experience
Dr Kim and the whole UChicago staff was incredibly friendly and professional. The experience stood out in my mind because of how efficient the visit was. Also my lab works were done on site which just made it easier.
Verified patient
Dr. Kim was professional and curtious.
Verified patient
I felt very taken care of by the team with Dr Kim. The office location is very easy to get to. He took his time seeing me and hearing all my concerns. He made timely recommendations so that I went to the ER and my illness was not delayed for treatment. Would definitely recommend!
Great
Verified patient
It was good. Had everything I'd written in about looked over. Efficient and thorough in examination, and also kept his mask on the whole time (big plus).
The doctor completely forgot why I was returning (just 2 weeks after my main check-up when I came back for a blood test) - I came in on time to the office for a blood test, and they forgot I was in a room and made me wait for 45 minutes before letting me know that they missed the time for a blood test, but I could return for another appt. Not very competently run staff and doctor appears to have a lot of patients.
Great experience from the front desk staff, the nursing staff, and of course the doctor. I was seen quickly, everyone was friendly, and all of my concerns were addressed. Felt very safe and comfortable the whole time.
Had a recent visit and the doctor and staff were very friendly!! Doctor listens to his patients and takes time to go over their concerns, very knowledgable. If you are looking for a good doctor look no more. Wait time was 2 minutes - if that!
Verified patient
Wonderful experience! The entire team was very efficient and made my visit comforting and seamless. Dr. Kim was very kind and allowed me to bring up any and all concerns that I had before going on with my day.
The services that i received from Dr. Kim, were excellent. Staff was very friendly and they ensure that i was informed properly about my health and care.

Awsome
Verified patient
Dr Kim was super friendly and professional. He listened to my concerns and took a holistic approach at suggesting remedies (e.g., lifestyle changes, preemptive actions, nutrition, exercise, etc... only in extreme circumstances did we discuss medication or medical intervention). I appreciate his approach and look forward to coming back.
Verified patient
Dr. Kim was great and I appreciate him hearing my concerns thoroughly and making sure to check all boxes of concern. Thank you for your time. I will continue to see Dr. Kim for regular checkups or issues.

Dr. Kim was great!
Verified patient
Great experience overall. Listened carefully to all of my symptoms, and recommended exams to get to the root of the problem. Very recommended.
Verified patient
Perfect!
Verified patient
The wait time was short so that was great. The nurse/medical assistant that checked me in was so rude, it was almost like she was being inconvenienced by having to be there and servicing me. The doctor didn’t seem to be listening to what I was saying and never sent the prescription he recommended. Overall it was a poor experience and I won’t be returning.
Very attentive the Gary. Helpful with Questions.
