Joung (John) Y Kim, MD

I received excellent care from every provider. Even though it was inconvenient for me to drive to Atlanta from home, it was well worth it. I would definitely recommend Dr. Kim and his staff along with all support staff.

All very good

Dr Kim is a EXCELLENT Doctor who have taken Great care of me since day 1 & his assistant is following his steps closely Keep up the Good Work

Dr. Kim is wonderful

Once I saw the care provider, everything started going smoothly. The wait time was horrible.

Dr Kim is very good.

Every effort has been made to assist me.

Dr Kim was incredible as asked for my concerns and explained In detail what my problems were and how he was going to correct them them.

Dr. Kim was very knowledgeable and I look forward to a successful surgery.

Excellent care, as always

As previously stated Dr Kim made notes so I would be scheduled with an appropriate doctor for my annual visit. Thank you Dr Kim.

Everyone remains on schedule but still make you feel like you can ask all the questions you need answered. They make you feel they care!!!

I am fairly new to Dr. KIM, but he has always been hand on and I understand him very well and like his recommendations

Very team oriented.

Focused on resolving my vision problem

Dr Kim is knowledgeable and thorough so I guess that is why his patient load is always full.

Overall good experience

They have skills to find my medical problem. And discuss me with the best treatment solutions

I never saw the doctor because I did not have time to wait for 2 hours so I left before seeing the doctor. Mysteriously, my patient record somehow states that I was counseled on a variety of topics by the physician, which obviously did not happen.

Dr Kim is very impressive, listened well and was super through In his examination. Has a very nice personality and is not rushed.

Great patient care

Dr.Kim is very knowledgeable and Great at explaining things of concern to patients.

Listened and communicated

All good and Excellent attention

Dr.Kim very thorough with his exam. Asks me if I have any problems

Dr. Kim is great!

Very personable filled me in and all the details and explain things to my knowledge and understanding showed compassion

Very good

Dr. Kim is an excellent communicator and put me completely at ease with the Lipoflow procedure. It was painless.

They respond well to treatment from the patient's point of view.

Always fully attentive!!!

Dr Adam was amazing and went the extra stepsDr Kim always the best

Dr. Kim and his staff are excellent. This follow-up to the prior day's surgery went great and met all expectations.

I cannot say enough good things about all of them.

Dr. Kim was 5 absolutely 5 star.

Care provider was direct, not TOO much small talk but tone displayed curiosity, compassion and good listening skills.

My appointment was a wonderful totally satisfying experience.

The entire team provided excellent patient care.

Dr Kim is very attentive and kind as we try to figure out this frustrating condition

I was seen within 10 minutes of my appointment time. Dr Kim is an excellent physician, efficient but never rushed. He provides the most comprehensive experience I have had with an ophthalmologist. I appreciate his service, friendliness and positive attitude. Also I appreciate how organized Emory clinic is.

My only wish would be to have this kind of care in northern Georgia closer to home!!

My doctor and his staff are the mvp of doctors

Dr. Kim is outstanding. I have recommended him to many others.

Beautiful that day.

It was a pleasure to interact with Dr. Kim. He is extremely knowledgeable and conducts himself in a professional manner while remaining open to hearing and discussing my concerns.

Dr.Kim was very patient to answer all questions from my family.

Good experience

Very nice and caring

Dr. Kim is great!

Dr Ki was very straight forward in his remarks and in answering my questions

Upon entering my room the first thing the MD said to me was, "well you can't seem to get enough of us can you?"My last appointment was in JANUARY. It is DECEMBER. That didn't necessarily feel like a warm welcome.

Awesome

After sitting outside for 5 hours.\n And then only being with a doctor for about 5 minutes to me, was not a good balance.

Excellent service from everyone I encountered

Dr. Kim is a rock star.

I owe my eyesight to Dr. Kim. He is always competent, kind, and concerned.

Dr. Kim is always very courteous and professional. He allows me ample time to ask questions and express any concerns that I might have and gives me feedback.

Very punctual and administered test as required.

Very happy w/ my visit!

I feel Dr Kim is the very best doctor I could have found. His kindness, experience and skill are truly a blessing to me. I know I can trust him with all my vision concerns

Dr. Kim always pleasant and professional

Stellar Physician. Listened to all my questions, very kind, concerned. The best

Dr. Kim was patient and answered all my concerns as always.

Dr. J. Kim is knowledgable and kind. I have seen him for more than 10 years.

Dr. Kim is a wonderful ophthalmologist!Highly skilled and a good communicator!

I think he did a good job, just no way to ask questions in future that come up after reading the material I am given

Excellent experience!

Dr. Kim is an excellent ophthalmologist! It took me months to get an appointment but so worth the wait.

I needed discussion on the best lens with my surgeon

Good

I am very happy with Emery

They treated me comfortably and answered my questions well.

Dr. J. Kim is a wonderful provider who cares about his patients.

Great

There was no discussion of risks.

Dr Kim is wonderful and his assistant dr Bowden listened to me and gave me options about my future care

Dr. Kim does excellent services

Everything was fine, everyone was great and I go back in about 6 months. Maybe something will have changed. If not at least I've got lefty.

Very Good

The fellow was also very professional and helpful.

Dr. Kim is very knowledgeable and answers questions with full confidence. However, since he is very busy, patients should prepare their questions in advance.

He may be a fine surgeon, but my outcome has been poor and my ability to reach care team was poor. I addressed this directly with the Dr on two separate occasions. He diflected both times.

Dr Kim is a rock star.

Dr. Kim is an outstanding ophthalmologist in every respect.

Good

He is always friendly and helpful

Dr. Kim is an awesome doctor. He takes time with his patients despite being one of the most sought after doctors through Rmory Healthcare. I had a lot of questions this visit. Dr. Kim took the time to address all my questions and alleviated my concerns.

Dr Kim is an excellent doctor!

Very well informed and appreciated very much!

Poor

Dr. Kim is very caring in addressing the problem and attended to it and made recommendations.

Great Service

Dr Kim is an excellent physician. Very knowledgeable, easy to talk to & a great sense of humor.

Great

The provider was through discussing my issue

Dr Kim is a very good doctor that takes pride in his carr

Dr. Kim is very thorough, explains things and make recommendations with patient.

Dr Kim and his team are great

I was surprised that the MD "assumed" which lens would be implanted. There was no prior discussion of options. I literally asked the resident/fellow what lens was being implanted and he wasn't sure. He raised it with Kim who did discuss it with me but this should have been a priority for a prior visit.

Good experience

Dr Joung Y Kim is fabulous. His bed side manner , caring attitude and technical prowess are the best of the best.

Dr. Kim and his staff were very caring, dedicated to my care, efficient, knowledgeable and committed to my eye health.

Thank all for their kindness and patience !

He is a very good doctor, but the clinic needs to get it together. It should not take that long to be seen.

Very high praise for my doctor!!!

Love Dr. Kim. Excellent doctor, and all around great human being.

Dr. Kim is an excellent physician.

Excellent

Dr. Kim is the absolute BEST! I know this not only because my left eye now has clear vision for the first time in two years. Or that I went to another eye surgeon before I found Dr. Kim and he wouldn't perform the cataract procedure (for whatever reason). But, the fellow who was shadowing Dr. Kim said that he was a great surgeon AND a great teacher. That speaks volumes!

Dr Kim identified the problem and took care of it for me

Very good visit!

Excellent professional and personal service!

Did not want to explain my condition clearly Gave me verge answers

The dr is always good. Very professional

Dr Joung Kim is a first class surgeon.

Good visit.

Very good.

Good

It was impressive to check several times so that there would be no problems with the surgery.

Very professional and warmly personal. Not rushed or abrupt as is so often the case with modern medicine.

All good!!

The doctor in charge will kindly tell you about the treatment process and make the next appointment.

I love the care my provider gives me but due to long waits won't be able to refer . Most people don't want to spend long hours at the doctorsofgice

I have always been Dr. Kim's biggest fan and maybe he was just having an off-day, but he didn't seem to give me thorough answers to my questions or fully address my concerns. He seemed tired and even a bit disinterested.

EXCELLENT SERVICE!!!!!

I always highly recommend Emory & have for decades

No issues at all.

I hope Dr. Kim never retires. And if he (for some reason) chooses to leave the Emory practice, I will follow him wherever he goes. I already drive about 3 hours to see him.

Dr. Kim examined my eyes for what seemed like a longer time than usual but it was well worth it! He explained so much to me and then referred me to another doctor to help with my issue. Super happy and while the results were not what I "wanted to hear", I am happy that I have answers until my next visit.

I know Dr.Kim is very busy with his case load.He explained that now is the time for cataract surgery. I saw the pictures of blurry cataracts.

Good!

Winderful

Good

Good visit !!

I love Dr. Kim. I trust him with my sight and life.

I felt rushed and I never got clarity around why our recurring problem was happening. I gave up when he said we should come back in a month.

Excellent service and care from everyone.

Love the care I get here.

Dr. Kim took time explaining my health issues He was excellent

Dr Kim is outstanding

Dr Kim listened and addressed my concerns with important options.

Dr Kim and his staff always provide excellent service and explain what they are doing and why.

I like, and trust, Dr. Kim.

Dr doesn't offer options

My 2 Emory Doctors are wonderful I have gone to Emory for my keratoconus for 47 years

Dr. Kim is excellent.

Dr. Kim is a good listener and evaluator and helpful in making decisions with the patient.

My technician was very patient with me, as I had difficulty reading the eye chart. And sometimes deciding between 1 and 2 seemed like an impossible choice.Dr. Kim is a level above all other eye specialists. He not only knows his stuff, he addresses your concenrs and waylays your fears. He's awesome, and I'm so happy my friend referred me.

Dr. Kim is simply the best!!!

Good

One part of the visit was to check my glasses prescription. After I had the glasses made and tried them on this week, I learned that the prescription was dramatically incorrect. This is the second time this has happened in the last 3-4 years. It is an unacceptable error and has wasted a substantial amount of my time in needing a repeat visit, having to get new glasses made, etc.

I just didnt get answers the first time so I got another appointment, And I still left with the feeling that I was just rushed through

Dr Kim was wonderful

Love Dr Kim. Always feel like he provides expert care and I always have excellent resilts

Very appreciative of the doctors time spent examining my eyes and explaining my current vision status and options available to me.,

The hold team from Dr. Kim, man the best I wouldn't trade any other hospital for Emory!! The staff was very knowledgeable, caring

I had a good experience

Very nice

Once I saw him, Dr Kim was great!Just took a long time.

My experience has always been cordial and respectful.

Caring

Dr. J. Kim lived up to his reputation. FB contact recommended seeking out Dr. Kim , which I did and was not disappointed.

Fabulous experience Thank you

Stellar physician

DrKIM WAS EXCELLENT AND ANSWERED ALL AND EVERYTHING!!

Dr Kim best Cornea doctor

Dr. Kim is extremely kind and professional

Knowledgeable and courteous. Outcome of procedure so far isn't as good as hoped for.

Dr Kim is the Best Corneal Doctor. Dr Kim is caring, knowledgeable and listens.

Outstanding.

Always a great visit knowing of his excellence in every aspect of the service he provides.

Still good and comfortable,

Everything was fine.

I did recommend Dr Kim to a new referral friend

Both the fellow and Dr. Kim were efficient and listened to my questions. I didn't feel rushed at all. I thank Dr. Kim for his skills on performing my cataract surgery on my left eye. He performef monovision surgery on me. The results have been excellent. This was my first visit since a year ago when I had my cataract monovision surgery. Excellent work Dr. Kim

Everyone was excellent

Dr Kim fixed a problem another physician ignored

Excellent team, patient, caring, considerate ans amicable

Overall good experience

The doctor, assistant physician, nurses and support staff were the best!!!

Dr. Kim is an excellent Surgeon well informed.

I am Dr. Kim Young's patient for more than 20 years and I have never had problem with the cataract surgery he did on both my eyes.. I am happy with the treatments, prescriptions and his advise about what I should do to protect my eyes from the risk of diabetic complications, which helped me to keep my eyes as healthy as they possibly be. For that, I officially thank Dr. Kim Young.

Dr. Kim is great!!!

Dr. Kim is THE BEST!!!

Great experience with Dr. Kim. He is very professional and easy to talk to.

The best

I love Emory hospital

Dr Kim is a god among men. His concern and knowledge are epic

Recommend to friends and family who have had similar issues.

I can't imagine using anyone other than Dr Kim

They have been so great In office and phone!!!I'm inMedical and can't say anything but positive!!

He was very thorough

I thought that I was seeing a retina doctor, but apparently that was not the case so I was confused, but he did give me some good advice about calcium deposit on my left eye and that my poor vision is due to my diabetes type two.

Good experience

Good

Dr. Kim is always very informative, professional and cordial.

Good experience

Dr Kim is an excellent surgeon and a caring professional, and knowledgable surgeon and instructor!

I am very happy with the care I receive.Thank you very much

I have always been very satisfied with Dr. Kim and his treatment of my problem.

Dr. Kim is the best and I would proudly recommend him were it not for my disappointment in Emory itself. I saw a cornea specialist at another practice when I could not get an appointment with Dr. Kim due to an incident with Emory's phone staff I reported previously. As much as I love and trust Dr. Kim, I would have to recommend the other doctor I saw solely due to the courtesy and efficiency of his staff.

Dr Kim is excellent and he was the only doctor to prescribe serum tears which has worked well for me

I trust & respect Dr. Kim and am thankful he is my eye doctor.

The doctor is.very good may have to big of a work load

Dr. Kim was very caring and provided me with excellent explanations to future treatments.

Very happy with Dr Kim and his team of doctors, medical assistants.

Excellent experience

Good

Dr. Kim performed all of my eye surgeries, and I feel very cared for by him.

Totally would reccommend Dr. KIM

Everyone is always kind helpful and very patient. In a healthcare environment that is so important to me.

Dr. Kim is excellent!

Everything was good.

The provider is very good but the scheduling and support he receives with respect to communication are substandard.

I have been coming to Dr. Kim for many years now, and he performed my lens implant surgery. I'm always so grateful for his expertise and dedication to the patient. He is very friendly, greeted me and my husband upon coming into the room, cheerful and compassionate, and will take the time with you to address all your needs. We drive for 2 hours to get to the clinic and it's well worth it to see Dr. Kim. I feel like I'm in excellent hands.

Was given very good Instructions and advice.

Appointment was surgery follow uo

Very good experience with little wait time this visit.

Good

Made me feel comfortable with my condition and I feel trust in his expertise.

Dr. Kim is by far one of the best doctors I have ever met.

Dr, Costarides is always thorough in his examination of my eyes and makes recommendations, accordingly. He is friendly and is a good listener.

Very nice and polite physician with no answers about my situation other than come back some other time and we will see if anything changes. I am a grounded pilot who wants factual answers. Emory is not providing facts or prognosis.

Both Dr Kim and the resident Dr Adams were excellent

DR. KIM WAS EXCELLENT AND GAVE HIS PROFESSIONAL OPINION ON MY CASE AND DR. COSTARIDES WILL MAKE FINAL DECISION!!! DR. KENNEY WAS EXCELLENT AND EXPLAINED EVERYTHING !!

I have no bad experience

The doctor or fellow that saw me before Dr. Kim seemed to shine the bright light into my dilated eyes for quite some time making me uncomfortable.

Good

The doctor explained and answered all my questions and was very reassuring.

Provider is superb. Support staff is good. They are over scheduled and under supported. And that hasn't changed for the better at any time in the 30 years that I have been a patient.

Dr Kim is awesome but I will recommend seeing him at st Joseph and will caution anyone from the Clifton road location as that location is a circus

Excellent

I have recommended Dr. Joung Kim to many and they have been very satisfied with him. He is the best!!

Doctor Joung Kim has informed me about the corneal symptoms and how they may Impact the recovery after the cataract surgery. He answered my questions about the degree of progression and future outlook. He also advised me about the selection of reading glasses and referred me to optometrist In 3-4 weeks after the cataract surgery.

Dr. Kim and his staff are exceptional in every respect! I have used Dr.Kim for years; he is an expert in his field, and has wonderful bedside manner. I don't trust the care of my eyes to anyone else

Dr Kim and the assistant Doctor were very good.

Under providers care for one and half years. Still blind with no hope!

Both doctors were very patient, explained things very very well, inspired confidence and at the same time we very pleasant , welcoming, and yet very professional.

Dr. Kim and Dr. Pilling were great listeners and they explained to me in clear but professional language the reasons I am having vision problems.

Dr. Kim is THE BEST!!!

Examination was thorough and respectful

Great doctor

Both Dr Kim and the Fellow took time to check progress of Fuchs Dystrophy, cataract surgery, reaction I had to eye drops with another Dr, and prognosis.

He was very informative and none point totally wrong. Again just performing his job

Doctor Joung Kim informed me about various treatments available, types of Intraocular lenses. He gave thorough explanation of benefits and risks, and I understood reasons for his recommendationd.

Information in the portal was different than the printed information.

My wife recommended Dr Kim

Dr Kim is great. But I cannot recommend the clinic that keeps cancelling appointments.

Dr Kim is great

Very poor because of the schedule and location issues. The doctor was great once we finally got to see him
