I found Dr. Kim through my insurance 2-3 years ago. I haven’t gone back in a while (covid) but I plan to do so soon. I have upper body trigger points and it gets really painful or irritated. I always feel so relieved after a visit with Dr. Kim. She makes sure I’m taken care of by checking-in during the acupuncture wait time and also lets me know what to expect. Definitely recommend!

Dr. Kim has a good bedside manner. I was really afraid of the needles and new to acupuncture. To my surprise, she was very gentle and used different technique such as cupping, and EMS to assist with acupuncture. She didn't charge extra for those additional service for more than one area and problem. She's very attentive to your concerns and problems. I highly recommend her services.

I can't begin to describe the level of gratitude I have for Dr. Kim! Like many others I found her through a GroupOn for 3 visits - the results I experienced easily justified continuing treatment for a multitude of issues.
She initially helped me overcome job related panic attacks due to extreme stress and a persistent shoulder issue 6-mos of 2x/wk PT visits had failed to provide an acceptable level of improvement given the # of visits - in less than 4 mos of 1x/wk visits my shoulder issue was a thing of the past!
During the first visits she noticed my lower back issue I hadn't mentioned

Dr. Kim is excellent. She's very knowledgeable, attentive, kind, patient, and has great bedside manner. She knew exactly what to do to address my issues and remembered each step during the process and visits so, I felt like I received a lot of personal attention for my needs. She's definitely become one of my favorite acupuncturists!

Dr. Kim is the most excellent acupuncturist! She's extremely attentive, efficient and gentle in her care. I've been to her for 2 different treatments and got relief both times. Once for deep sinus issues and most recently for TMJ. I recommend her highly to anyone looking for an experienced practitioner. I can not say enough good things about her - if you've never tried acupuncture and are interested in trying it, look for one of her Groupon coupons. It's well worth it!

I went there with a groupon deal. I had neck/shoulder pain along with some minor medical issues.
She took great interest in what I had to say about my issues. She is extremely nice, knowledgeable, attentive and caring. She explains what she would do before she starts. She made sure that I am comfortable at all times. Highly recommended.

I went in for a first time experience for acupuncture, and was very pleased with the folks there. Very friendly, professional. I told Hee Jin Kim L.Ac what issues I had regarding pain, and she indicated the procedure she was going to do, and length of time between procedures, and made sure she knew exactly where the pain was centered before proceeding so she would put full attention to those areas . The rest was uneventful as the cupping and needles were a non event, no pain at all. I was totally amazed. expecting painful needles, etc, but nothing to it. I also noticed a great overall feeling as

I found this place through Groupon but am so glad I did! Been suffering with neck pain for 4 days straight and a friend suggested I try acupuncture.
The acupuncturist was very welcoming, friendly, non-judgmental, and organized. This was my first time ever getting acupuncture, so she made sure that I felt comfortable and knew what to expect. I almost fell asleep every time she let the needles do their thing because the atmosphere was so relaxing!
Looking forward to the next treatment!!!
I also have gastrointestinal reflux disease so I am thinking of getting acupuncture treatments should any
