Achieve Optimal Oral Health
“Your comfort and satisfaction is my #1 priority. I am here for YOU!”
At a young age, Dr. Kim was inspired by her family dentist in Green Bay to pursue dentistry as a career. She went on to receive her dental degree in 2003 from Marquette University, School of Dentistry in Milwaukee.
Following her graduation, Dr. Kim advanced her clinical knowledge and skills in post-doctorate programs at VA Hospitals in Minneapolis and Los Angeles. Here she had the opportunity to teach and mentor dental students, gain valuable experience by working with specialists in all areas of dentistry, and learned how to safely and competently care for patients with complex medical and dental conditions.
Over the years, Dr. Kim has treated patients in private practice and kept abreast of the latest techniques dentistry has to offer. She focuses on getting to know each and every patient. Dr. Kim feels the keys to successful dental care are to understand your patients’ fears, concerns, and to ensure their comfort. Her goal is to instill open communication, calmness, and confidence in her patients. Due to her artistic eye, she enjoys cosmetic dentistry but believes, first and foremost, in achieving optimal oral health.
Currently, Dr. Kim is taking advanced courses with Spear, which focuses on providing comprehensive treatment to patients to target underlying problems and provide long-lasting results.
In her free time, Dr. Kim enjoys spending time with her family, photography, cooking, traveling, and is always working on some creative project.
