Best thing: I was treated like an equal partner in my diagnosis and treatment plan. Dr. Kim explained the upshot of my X-rays and MRI results and he outlined several possibilities for what to do next. I offered my opinion and we came up with a treatment plan that suited both of us.

This was great! I'm -- sadly -- a frequent flyer in the world of sports/repetitive stress injuries. Dr. Kim was quick and professional, plus fun to talk to and very, very informative. I've never had a steroid shot while looking at an ultrasound of my muscles reacting. Whoa! Very interesting. And the least painful of steroid shots ever. Plus all the recommendations for the right exercises and refs to -- sadly -- PT once again. If you have to go, go to him!
