  • Dr. Matthew Kim, he was wonderful as always. Thank you.

    2026-06-19

  • I have gone through several endocrinologists before arriving at this one. I trust this one this most. (1) He was aware of new trends in providers keeping patients on methimazole longer, in other countries, which shows he has continued to education himself since leaving medical school and is open to other evidence-backed ways of doing things besides just the prevailing orthodoxy. [redacted] (2) His questions indicated he customizes his approach to the patient (e.g., having a patient try T3 supplementation if warranted), rather than use a one-size-fits-all approach. [redacted] (3) He seems thorough, looking not only at the thyroid dosing question I came to him about [redacted] (4) He seems conservative about resorting to surgery. [redacted] I agree with the conservative approach. In short, I think his approach is careful, informed, thoughtful, up-to-date on treatment options and their pros and cons, and considers his patient as a whole person.

    2026-06-11
