Dr. Kim graduated from the University of Notre Dame and earned his medical degree from Penn State College of Medicine, where he was inducted into both the Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) Medical Honor Society and the Gold Humanism Honor Society. He completed his orthopedic surgery residency at Penn State Milton S.
