John Kim, MD, FACS

I’m a registered nurse and spent over a year researching and consulting before choosing a plastic surgeon — so my standards were incredibly high. From my very first consultation, Dr. Kim stood out for his precision, deep knowledge, and ethical approach. I immediately felt I was in very capable hands. I underwent a tummy tuck and breast augmentation, and now at one year post-op, I can confidently say my results are everything I hoped for and more. The outcome is natural, beautifully balanced, and exactly what I asked for. Dr. Kim’s entire team is warm, professional, and supportive throughout the whole process (shoutout to Leanne RN!) I am one year post-op and couldn’t be happier with my experience or outcome. Highly recommend.

We are incredibly grateful we chose Dr. Kim and his amazing team. His outstanding surgical work and compassionate care exceeded all expectations, and I am so happy I trusted him with my complex surgery. From start to finish, I felt informed, supported, and completely at ease. This experience brought me true peace of mind, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Most importantly, I am absolutely thrilled with my results—he truly is an artist. I am so happy I chose Dr. Kim and recommend him 100%.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Dr. Kim and his incredible team — Leanne and Julie. From start to finish, the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional. Dr. Kim is truly outstanding. He took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, answered every question with patience and honesty, and made me feel completely confident in my decision. His expertise, precision, and attention to detail are unmatched, and my results exceeded my expectations. I couldn’t be happier. Leanne and Julie are absolute gems. They are warm, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. From pre-op to post-op, they made sure I was comfortable, informed, and supported every step of the way. Their professionalism combined with their kindness made what could have been a stressful experience feel calm and reassuring. The entire process was seamless — communication was excellent, the office was welcoming, and I felt truly cared for as a patient, not just another appointment. I am beyond thrilled with my results and so grateful to have been in such capable and compassionate hands. If you are considering a procedure, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Kim and his amazing team. They are simply the best.

I recently underwent a breast reduction following a lumpectomy, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Kim and his nurse Leanne. From my very first consultation, they made me feel completely supported, informed, and genuinely cared for. Dr. Kim took the time to explain every step of the process, answer all of my questions, and reassure me when I felt anxious. His precision, expertise, and calm confidence immediately put me at ease. His nurse Leanne was equally exceptional—kind, attentive, and incredibly compassionate. She checked in on me regularly, helped me understand my post-operative care, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire journey. Her warmth and professionalism made all the difference during a vulnerable time.

Dr. Kim had come highly recommended by a close friend of mine, and he exceeded my expectations on every single level. From his gentle, attentive beside manner to his extraordinary experience and expertise, it was a 5-star journey. His entire staff - especially his nurses - exude kindness and compassion. My surgery result was exactly what I hoped to achieve, and even beyond. Dr. Kim was honest, transparent and made all decisions very collaborative. If given the choice of any doctor in Chicago, I would choose Dr. Kim every single time!
