Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Dr. Kim "I have been in general pediatric practice for over 30 years. I take pride in being as thorough and complete as I can be. I also like to answer questions and explain things fully to parents. One of the joys of my practice has been to watch kids grow up from birth to adulthood and to see them bring their own children in to see me."
