It has been a pleasure going to this dental practice. Dr. Kim and his staff are very friendly and silly. Dr. Kim is very thorough with the exam and cleaning. First exam was comprehensive, the insurance did not cover everything. Lots of x-rays and photos of teeth that needed attention were taken. But in my opinion it is totally worth it. There was also some nice Joe Hisaishi music playing in the background on one of the days I went. I think my search for a dentist is over.

Dr. Kim is very kind and courteous. I was very impressed with his outstanding professionalism (especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, he takes extra safety precautions!). He is thorough with my questions and answers with care. He also gives wonderful recommendations and advice on dental issues. I would recommend Dr. Kim to my friends and family.

My dad was out of town and he had tooth issue. Was able to contact dr. Kim at 7:30pm and was able to get a timely response. He fixed us into his busy schedule next day and came in early to take care of us. John Hopkins trained and highly experienced and very polite. I Highly recommend him and his practice

I broke a crown on a Tuesday evening and sent Dr. Kim an email that night as my prior dentist had just retired. Dr.Kim called me that night and scheduled me for the next day. It turned out I also need 2 additional crowns. Dr.Kim worked with the lab to make sure the color match was perfect and rejected the initial set. He is a perfectionist which is a quality that I appreciate. Additionally, his COVID protocols are excellent. I would recommend him to anyone and he is my new family dentist! Thank you Dr. Kim!

I read great reviews about this practice and needed a new dentist. I was a bit behind on my 6 month cleaning, and was able to get an appointment within a week of contacting them. Kyla was extremely helpful and responsive. I had my appointment today and it was wonderful! Kyla and Dr Kim were both so friendly, welcoming, and everything was pristine. Both wore extra protective gear as well. I've seen several dentists, and cleanings can at times be uncomfortable, but I didn't feel a thing today! Will definitely be returning. I highly recommend!

About 2 or 3 weeks ago my son had a molar infection that was causing him a lot of pain. He wanted to see if he could tough it out but it got to be too painful and I decided to call a dentist. My wife and I are new to Montgomery County so I looked up for the nearest clinic on Google. Boy am I glad Dr. Kim popped up first. He is awesome, he got us in the same day! He is great with my son and you can tell he's very careful and detail oriented in his work. If you're in the area, don't think twice and call Dr. Kim's office today.

Hands down the best dentist I've ever been to. Ethical, skilled and gentle. Dr. Kim has always made me feel comfortable during my appointments. As a decade-long patient, I refuse to go anywhere else (even though I now commute from Jersey).

Fairly new store.. looks nice inside. Dr. Kim is nice. few months ago, I visited here. Was charged with extra after my treatment. Was told I would not have to pay anything, but later I had to speak with my dental insurance. Will not return for that reason.

Dr. Kim was referred to me by a friend who was impressed with the quality of his work. He is professional, caring and patient. He worked with my elderly mom to repair her teeth and remove the cavities that have been built up over time and that were not addressed by her previous dentist. He meticulously worked with her teeth to make sure the cavities were all gone and repaired her teeth so she could have a nice smile again. Dr. Kim developed a caring relationship with my mom, who looked forward to seeing him upon her visits. I highly recommend Dr. Kim! You're in good hands!
