I immediately liked Dr. Kim and really appreciated the care and depth in which they explained next steps and what to expect. I also felt like Dr. Kim took the time to get to know me as a person and went beyond asking questions about my health. Highly highly recommend.

The entrance to the building was a little difficult to find if you follow Google Maps. I filled out every bit of paperwork sent my way ahead of the visit but unfortunately still had to handle quite a bit of paperwork once I arrived. Thankfully they saw me while I was still doing the paperwork and I was able to finish it after my appointment. I saw a nurse, nurse practitioner and the doctor and all were nice and helpful. I would recommend this doctor + these offices to anyone in need.
Verified patient
Dr. Kim was very helpful and provided a lot of information to me. He was very responsive to my questions and gave me some advice on wellness. He is thorough in his questioning and made sure he answered all my questions.
Prior to booking an appointment, I was nervous about my blood work results that I did with my primary care doctor. She advised I see a hematologist. I am so happy I booked with Dr. Byung Kim. The appointment went smoothly. He provided more clarity on my results. He reassured me that everything will be fine and that I should not stress out about anything yet. I definitely felt relieved and much more calm after speaking with him. I would recommend booking an appointment with him if you are looking for a hematologist.
