Dr. Lim was amazing! I arrived early and she was able to see me right away. She was personable, kind, funny, and very thorough. She took her time throughout the whole process and made sure I understood why and what she was doing each step of the way. I definitely recommend her!

Dr Lim is the ultimate professional with the best bedside manner, great communication and the most thoroughness I've ever seen.
May 31, 2015Lucky G.Verified patient
I found Dr Lim to be attentive, knowledgeable and helpful. She took the time to answer all of my questions without making me feel rushed and provided helpful information.
My only complaint regarding Dr. Lim's practice was that, due to the size of her practice and my insurance, I was unable to have an Echo done by her, and had to go elsewhere for both the echo and holter monitor. For anyone with another insurance, something other than HIP, I would recommend her.

professional and no wait time
February 5, 2015Yan G.Verified patient
What a nice experience. Spent over one hour with me and gave me a thorough exam. I brought reems of paper that she scaned and she was very caring and professional. If she incorporates primary care I would request that she be my PCP. Doctor Lim really made me feel like I was in competent caring hands. Thank you Doctor Lim,
May 14, 2014Henry M.Verified patient
I had a pleasure to meet this doctor for regular medical check up. She has good professional knowledge and great interpersonal skills. She was very informative and kind. I see she is specialized in cardiovascular and she also hold a degree in medicine and surgery. I highly recommend MD Lim for any medical problems and health promotion.
October 24, 2013Sook Young C.Verified patient
I would recommend Dr. Lim without reservation. I like that Dr. Lim is thorough in conducting her checkup and discussing frankly her diagnosis with me. When prescribing medication, Dr. Lim listens and discusses any reservations I may have. I mostly appreciate that she has come to her office on her day off to take care of my emergencies.

It's a privilege to be in the extremely capable care of Dr. Lim. Without any sense of time or pressure, Dr. Lim established a strong professional bond immediately and continues to the present providing the highest level I've ever encountered of genuine concern, care and intensive expertise to diagnose and treat. Dr. Lim has an incredible talent and tempers it with kindness, thoroughness and intensive caring to make sure the outcome will be defined with improvements and successes. Her memory is incredible, and having a Doctor who knows who you are and makes an ongoing effort to ensure comfort and reassurance while providing the utmost attention to detail and genuine concern for the patient's peace of mind and return to good health. Dr. Lim is a blessing to all who are lucky enough to be in her care.
