Verified patient
excellent!!
Verified patient
Dr. Kim is pleasant and professional. However, he prescribed medication without offering much in regard to potential causes or expected duration of symptoms. My questions almost exclusively drove the conversation rather than joint exploration of factors which could be related to the medical concern. The problem with one way communication is the patient doesn’t know what they don’t know and it is disconcerting as a patient to have almost no affirmative engagement from the medical professional.
Verified patient
Great office and prompt service

Verified patient
Dr. Kim is very friendly and attentive, great listener. His staff is great, nice clean office. Overall very positive experience!
Verified patient
I would not recommend Dr. Luke Kim, as he seems to be in it for the quick money. I was seen for about 5 mins, and all he did was prescribe Flonase to me EVEN after telling him I've been using it. And worst of all, neither he nor his office staff explained costs and if I knew he would do extra procedures which are exorbitant, I would not have accepted. I would hope for some more honesty from him in the future, but it seemed like he wanted to do a quick cash grab and get rid of me.
Verified patient
Good doc very nice
Great experience
Verified patient
I was given an appointment quickly. Other ENT's weren't able to see me for several months. I appreciate that my symptoms were addressed quickly since they were worrying me. The office environment, staff, and Dr. Kim were professional and courteous.
Verified patient
He was nice but did not take care of what I explained. Dr Kim just simply looked at my ear with simple otoscope and told me my ears are fine however I had really sharp pain and still my ears hurt. hopefully US can improve its clinicians.
