More about Dr. Jun Kim, MD

Dr. Jun S. Kim is a fellowship trained spine surgeon at The Mount Sinai Hospital and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery. Dr. Kim specializes in cervical spine and scoliosis surgery, using a combination of minimally invasive, open, and microsurgical techniques to treat disorders of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine. Dr. Kim attended Cornell University and graduated with Bachelor of Science in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. He received his MD from the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University, and completed orthopaedic surgery residency at Mount Sinai Medical Center. After his residency at Mount Sinai, Dr. Kim completed a spine fellowship in adult and pediatric scoliosis and deformity surgery at Columbia University Medical Center where he served as an assistant attending physician and a clinical instructor. Dr. Kim believes that modern spine care should be comprehensive and multidisciplinary. He believes that this comes from a team approach comprised of physiatrists, physical therapists, anesthesiologists, neurologists, radiologists, internists, and pediatricians. Secondly, he believes it is imperative that all non-surgical avenues be explored and trialed before surgery is considered. Lastly, if and when surgery becomes necessary, Dr. Kim believes the surgery should be personalized and tailored to the individual patient. Dr. Kim has trained with both orthopaedic spine surgeons and neurosurgical spine surgeons. During the course of these years, he has had experience successfully treating advanced scoliosis and deformities of the spine in adult and pediatric patients.

Dr. Kim is an awesome doctor! I felt so comfortable at my appointment. Everyone from the waiting room staff to the sweet and efficient nurse who took my vitals and the excellent x-ray technician were so friendly and professional. Such a comfortable office. Dr. Kim listened to my concerns, analyzed my x-ray images and spoke to me as an equal. He took such amazing care of me which is why I went back to him after seeing him 2 years ago. I recommend both Dr. Kim and a visit to his office for any concerns involving the spine. He eased my concerns with such a wonderful bed side manner. Thanks Dr. Kim!!

I saw Dr. Kim today and was so well taken care of. He is always so professional and so easy to talk to. He listened to my concerns and gave good advice. Not an alarmist, he made me feel that the situation with my back was totally manageable and gave me a number of recommendations on a path forward. I whole heartedly recommend Dr. Kim and the wonderful new Mt. Sinai Spine Center. I went thinking I needed an MRI but Dr. Kim said I didn't need one. They gave me an x-ray with the latest up to date technology and it showed amazing detail. I'm glad my situation turned out not to be bad and I thank Dr. Kim for being so supportive and a total pro.

Verified patient
Dr Jun Kim is an excellent Dr and would highly recommend him . He took time out to understand my issue and read the MRI report and review the image. He explained the images in layman’s terms so I have a understanding of what is being captured on the image, and what it means . He evaluate me by checking my balance and reflexes and after a thorough examination, he informed me that surgery is not required at this point and recommend me to see another Dr. I have seen other Dr who just read My MRI report and immediately without examining me inform me that surgery is my best option. I highly recommend Dr Kim he has excellent bedside manner, a good listener and excellent communication skill . Thank u Dr Kim u really help me from having unnecessary surgery
