I just want to thank this clinic for everything they have done for me. All the nurses are great, but I want to especially thank MONICA. She is an absolutely amazing nurse. She makes me feel so comfortable and she really cares about her patients, and job. Thank you for being an amazing nurse! Secondly, Dr JIM is the best doctor Ive ever seen! He also, is very patient and caring. He takes his time to explain everything. And genually wants to help. Ive always dreaded the doctor, but they have went above and beyond for me. And now I feel so much better when I go to appointments. So again, thank you for what you have done for me, and this community. You are appreciated!!

Dr. Jim is the best. He cares a great deal about the patients. The staff is awesome as well. I wish all doctors cared that much about their patients and had such a great staff.

Dr. Kim was awesome, the nurse who took my blood pressure was super polite and helpful with my questions. The ladies at the front desk were nice also. And unlike most of these”free” clinics it was actually free. Of course they accept donations. You must be able to show proof of employment but other than that Dr. Kim is doing something that a lot of people don’t do in the world today. Helping Others!!!!I recommend this office to anybody working with no insurance.

The guy who took my blood was really nice. I had wanted a pap smear because I havent had a period in 2 months they seemed like the type of people who push there beliefs on others. The lady told me that vaping would kill me. And they wouldnt let my husband come with me when or if they would do my pap smear.

This was my first visit, everyone was really nice. The visit was kind of fast but thats probably because Im used to going to a bigger office with a lot of patients. The doctor and the nurse were both eager to help me get my thyroid levels back to where they need to be. I will definitely recommend this office to anyone who does not have insurance or who can no afford to be seen by a doctor. Im so glad I found this resource.

Dr. Kim is excellent! He and his staff went out of their way to make sure I had all of the resources necessary to recover. I appreciate how he does not sugar-coat information and he tells the honest truth, whether you want to hear it or not. I am so happy to have a free clinic that I can go to when something is wrong so I can stop trying to play Doctor on WebMD and to have a doctor that can motivate me to make positive, healthy decisions.

Dr. Kim is a Saint! Yes, he comes at you full force, because he believes in your ability to do better and live better. I quit smoking because of him. He doesnt have to do the things he does to help people. He has developed a network of like-minded medical professionals in the area that are there for us working poor. If it were not for him, I would have nowhere to go.Thank you and your staff, Dr. Kim.

Worst experience I have ever had with a doctor and I would not recommend this place to anyone even though it is free. I would rather be in debt than get treated the way I was at this office. I went in because I felt like I was wheezing and had a cough. He walked in and first started to comment on my weight. He said why so unhealthy skinny and started making motions sticking his finger down his throat and acting like he was puking. He then ask me do I make myself sick and if I eat and I said no I am not anorexic or bulemic I have anxiety. He then tells me anxiety is not a disease. Well then I tell him I wasnt there to talk about my weight and he said well you arent wheezing bronchitis. Then has his older nurse lady come in. She makes fun of me the entire time tells me I look worse than an anorexic, tells me it is windy out, ask me how I buy normal clothes....etc well it got to the point to where the man who drew my blood got so pissed off at her that he told her she needed to be doing her job instead of bothering me and he repeatedly apologized for her ignorance. He finally told her everyone was a different size and to say things like that was wrong. Well I tried to explain to Dr Kim that I needed help for my anxiety and depression he told me time to leave get out I have other patients no time for nonsense! I went to the interfaith clinic after that and got all the help with my anxiety and depression. I wouldnt take my animals to that free clinic.

This is how medicine should be direct and to the point! I work PRN for a hospital and Im a fulltime nursing student without health INSURANCE. I appreciate what this office does!

I agree with one other who stated Kim was rude! Retired or otherwise, having a spot on the road and assisting the public means having a professional demeanor. I visited this site several years ago when developing a rash on one wrist after handling debris in my yard. It developed in to a form of ring-worm and when I visited this spot just to have it checked out, I was met with near distaste from someone claiming to be a doctor. Most think they are above reproach anyway but to be treated as less than human is not what I or anyone needs when taking the time to pull in to the driveway and to walk through the door. I would not then...nor today or in the future recommend Dr. Kim to anyone!

This place is a joke, Im 21 and have pressure in my chest, a cough, fatigue and horrible allergies, the nurses were treating my like I was stupid and like I was a waste of their time. ( with the exception of one young blonde nurse she was great.) I overheard the nurses talking about doctor Kim, apparently he was about to leave when I came to the office, when he came into the room he said whats wrong with you? and I told him about my symptoms and he kept interrupting me and asking questions that werent relevant at all like do you live with your parents? does your wife work, where does she work? why didnt you come in yesterday if you didnt feel good? so one and so forth. Then listened to my lungs the quickest any doctor has, he listened to them for maybe 15 seconds, but he didnt listen to my heart or anything. Then he gets up real quick, asked me three times if I drove, i said yes, he told me to go to the er to get an ekg and blood tests for heart dieses. I then went to Seymour weight and wellness to get a second opinion and Melissa said there that I have bad allergies that are mimicking bronchitis, I dont have insurance so I went to the free clinic and I was treated like I was stupid and dr. Kim tried to brush me off to an er to do tests that arent necessary and would have put thousands in debt, any one who doesnt have insurance and needs a doctor should go to Seymour weight and wellness, not this joke of a clinic

Sent my daughter there today, as she has no access to insurance...was at the E/R three weeks ago and diagnosed with Hyperthyrodism. Dr. Kim just looked at her chart and said Its all in your head. What a freaking idiot!! And I have been the one telling her to go there...sure wont happen again! She has been miserable for weeks with headaches, fatigue, panic attacks, cant eat, dizzyness...and its all in her head...
