Keith Kim Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

Doctor Booth is a very nice caring man.
My first impression of Dr.Booth has not changed.He has a great group of nurses.They r
a wonderful group of girls.

At first I felt as though I was just another patient but have come to realize they have a lot of patients and i must be patient with them.

Dr Booth was not able to do my surgery.Dr Kim
did it and all went well.

Will meet him for the first time the day before surgery (9/24). I understand from another who had him, he is great.

This was to be my third surgery with Dr. Booth. The mourning of surgery I met Dr. Kim who had been assisting with dr. Booth, and in fact assisted with my 2nd surgery in Sept., 2000.

I was not happy with this news initially.

Hindsight, all I can say is God looks out for us!

Being my 3rd surgery I was very apprehensive, Dr. Kim was absolutely wonderful. He was caring and compassionate throught my whole 10 day stay. He kept my family very informed, answering all of there questions with great patience.

I may have gone into this without an "Angel" - Dr. Kim was my Angel.

My first impression of Dr. Kim came before I ever met him. I liked the way the nurses spoke about him and I liked the way they seemed proud of him. When I finally met him I understood why. He is a great guy! Super nice, very sincere, big smile and I was confident that he knew what he was doing and had more than sufficient experience. He never hesitated to answer my questions and I had many. Since I have had surgery if I have a question he calls me back. He stresses the importance of after care and follow up. The office has a support group and program for it's patients, unfortunately I don't live in the same state so attending meetings proves to be very difficult. Let me say this. If I ever had to have any type of surgery again in my life and I knew he did it I would ask him to do it.

The only downside that I can even come up with is that I don't like living so far away. I wish I had direct access to the office on a moments notice instead of being hours away. I was also bummed that the procedure was hand assisted I was hopping for all tiny scars. But now the hand incision is only maybe 5 cm not even so I couldn't care less. (Did I mention he had small hands? LOL)

Dr. Kim is a quiet, matter-of-fact young man who is incredibly bright and concerned with your welfare and health. He took great care in explaining all the procedures, pre and post concerns and requirements. He's very busy, so I had to often wait quite a bit on post-op visits. But when he came to my exam room, he spent as much time as I needed to answer all my questions.
