Its clear that orthodontics is my thing I have been helping create beautiful smiles for 38 years!! WOW!! A little extra about myself: Favorite color: Purple Favorite pet: My little, adorable Cava Tzu Amilli Favorite vacation spots: Every where! Favorite place to work: Kim and Lee Orthodontics of course!!
I love orthodontics! After having braces as a teen I was so amazed at what it did for my teeth and confidence I decided it was the career for me. I started in 1997 in the dental field. I enjoy bringing a positive energy to work and helping others achieve the same experience I had. I enjoy spending time with my family, trying new foods, and catching up with friends. Favorite color: Anything sparkling Favorite TV genre: History channel and Science Favorite activity: Love to get back to Gardening
I have been working in the dental/orthodontics field for about 13 years before I joined the Kim and Lee orthodontics back in 2012. It is rewarding to see the positive change the orthodontics brings to people. I enjoy working with everyone in our team as much as I love traveling. Go Seahawks!!! Favorite color: White Favorite food: Sushi, Sushi, Sushi!!! Favorite vacation spots: Would love to travel all over the world but Hawaii for now

First off all, the whole staff here is wonderful. Shontae the appointment coordinator who gives a bright smile as soon as you walk through the door. Helena, a warm student that makes you feel comfortable & heard when you complain about the "normal" soreness from braces. Paulina who cracked jokes & stayed professional. Dr. Kim is a very upfront making the experience a lot smoother than I imagined. Laying out all his concerns and opinions in the beginning leaving no room for unexpected surprises. As much as I disliked braces, I will definitely miss this office. 10/10 recommendation.

This has been an amazing journey! Dr. Kim and all his staff are super friendly, professional, caring, and helpful. They help me every step up the way to give me the best care and options available for making my teeth look straight and feel more confident in myself. I even recommended my teenage daughter who got her braces as well and now her smile she feels amazing. No matter what age you are you are treated with kindness and respect from the amazing staffs. I feel very satisfied and highly recommend this orthodontist, who is very knowledgeable and made me feel at ease with all the options presented to me to make a good choice for myself.

Kim & Lee took awesome care of me! I was recommended here by down to earth dental for braces. I had Invisalign's for only 6 months and I couldn't be happier with the results. Phenomenal customer service across the board. The small crew became like family, and even left me with a sweet parting gift after my braces were finally removed. Cannot say enough good things about these folks.

I'm very happy that I was able to get my braces done at this place. The staff members are truly kind and caring. Dr. Kim and Dr. Lee took great care of my teeth and now that I am looking back, I thought of taking a few minutes to write this. Thank you, really.

I have been a patient of Dr. Lee for more than two years and it has been a great experience. Dr. Lee consistently takes her time to discuss my options throughout the treatment so that I was satisfied with how the treatment was progressing. Both Dr. Lee and Dr. Kim including their staff are genuine and caring professionals. If you are considering any kind of orthodontic treatment, I highly recommend Kim and Lee orthodontics!
