Dr. Kim is one of the sweetest doctors I've had the pleasure of being seen by. She made me feel very comfortable and helped me feel confident about the progress of my baby's development. I hope she is the doctor who helps deliver my baby.

The care I received was very exceptional! Her doctor patient approach was respectful, kind and I felt heard. She gave me the space to talk but also the time to educate and give full transparency. I never felt rush or ignored and I'm happy I was able to have her as my doctor. I highly recommend her as a positive example of being kind and professional with patients!

Dr. Kim has been my gyne for at least 5 years and I've been more than pleased! She is the most responsive, excellent listener and most involved gyne I've had since my ob/gyne left the practice in the 1990s. She is compassionate, an excellent listener and extremely responsive and helpful.

I had test results that the Doctor knew I was anxious about and it took her a day and a half to confirm my results. Secondly I asked for a recommendation for a dermatologist and I still do not have one.

April 28, 2025
She is very nice
April 22, 2025
We were told the provider was running 30 minutes behind for our 8:45 am appointment? What on earth? She was obviously late to work. This was my 16 year old daughter's FIRST visit to a Gynecologist. She was very nervous. The provider understood my daughter has ADHD, and yet the provider STILL rushed through the questions and "hurried" her answers. I was not happy about this at all. Just because YOU are behind/late/ whatever, my daughter deserved better attention and additional "wait" time for my daughter to think how she wanted to respond.

The OB/Gynocologist, Doctor Brenda Kim, was friendly, explained everything to me so that I can understand, and reassured me that there are ways to fix my Bladder issue and it was nothing to worry about. She gave me a print out of this first time visit experience as I requested. Thanks.
