    I had a very positive experience with Dr Erin Kim. The work that she did for my tummy tuck was so good for me. I had full rectus diastasis and she sewed that up and just really got a lot of extra stuff out of the way and I feel like I have my body back again. I think she did as much as she possibly could for me, with that procedure. I can run again, and just move easier. My back doesn't hurt anymore. I'm soooo grateful! She really helped me have a body I can work with. She was so nice and always helped me understand and listened to my concerns. She did a great job. I highly recommend her!

    Dr Kim was very clear in answering questions and helping me know what to expect. I felt I could trust her. My experience with the surgery was so good, she clearly strives to do the best that she can for the patient. She was very clear and earnest in helping me know how to best care for myself post surgery. I feel that the procedure was successful and I'll have a better quality of life going forward with the support in my stomach and much less bulk/volume. I'm so grateful I got to work with Dr Erin Noelani Kim
