About this practice
What patients say again and again
“Throughout the process (and I am really only beginning on this journey), I have felt fully supported by her, never rushed, always heard, and always in expert hands.”
“She is detail oriented, kind, talented and down to earth- I could not have hoped for a better outcome for my breast surgery and without question would recommend Dr.”
From the reviews
I am a patient of Julie Kim's and have been impressed at each visit with the office staff, the nursing and especially Julie Kim. She is dedicated, calm under pressure and an excellent surgeon.
Dr. Julie N. Kim is super kind, professional, and easy to talk to. She takes the time to listen and explains things clearly. Highly recommend!
Dr. Kim is an exceptional plastic surgeon whose combination of surgical precision, warmth, and professionalism made a breast cancer diagnosis, one of the most difficult periods of my life, far more manageable. She is meticulous in her work and communicates with a level of clarity that inspires confidence.
Dr. Kim was assigned to me as part of the team that would be performing my breast surgery. Learning that I needed plastic surgery was nerve racking. I didn't know anything about her, I didn't fully understand why plastic surgery was necessary, and I didn't have time to do thorough research beforehand.
Researching a tummy tuck?
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is major surgery with real risks and a recovery that usually runs several weeks — this page is a starting point for finding a surgeon, not medical advice. The most useful next step is a consultation, where a surgeon reviews your health history, examines you, talks through your options, and gives a personal quote. Bring questions and don't rush the decision.
Questions worth asking: Are you board-certified in plastic surgery (and can I verify it)? Where would you operate, and is the facility accredited? Can I see before-and-after photos of your own patients? What are the risks and the realistic recovery timeline for me? What's your revision policy if something needs adjusting? Whatever a listing says, always verify certification directly with the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) at abplasticsurgery.org, and discuss your candidacy, risks, and recovery with the surgeon.
