Biography
Dr. Flora Kim is a board-certified dermatologist who graduated magna cum laude from Harvard University, received a full merit scholarship to medical school at the University of Virginia, and completed dermatology residency here in Dallas at UT Southwestern. Dr. Kim shared her care philosophy, "A doctor has a love for life and an even deeper love for people. My career as a dermatologist is not just my job; it is my passion. I will not only examine your skin, but truly listen to your concerns. Each and every time, I will do my very best to address your needs and be your biggest advocate to bring your skin back to optimal health. I hope to gain your trust and confidence, and work together to reach your goals. I am privileged to have the opportunity to build a relationship with you, your family, and your friends, and look forward to meeting all of your dermatological needs." Before entering the field of medicine, Dr. Kim was initially in the world of finance, investment banking in New York City until 9/11 happened. This event sparked a desire to serve others as a physician and triggered her career change. She was introduced to dermatology by a leader in the field while in Manhattan. Her passion for skin diseases grew while she conducted research at the Dermatology Branch at the National Institutes of Health and while as a medical student at the University of Virginia. She is indebted to all of her mentors – Dr. Joshua Sharfstein, Dr. Mark Lebwohl, and Dr. Kenneth Greer – who inspired and fostered her burgeoning profession as a dermatologist. Having spent her childhood years in Paris, France, the ease of hopping on a train or car to visit neighboring cities and countries has inculcated a curiosity for both domestic and international travel. Dr. Kim and her husband (a Head and Neck Cancer Surgeon), cannot wait to share their passion for travel and take their two young children around the fifty states and abroad.

I went in for annual skin check. She did not do a full body check...I had to ask for it. I had a few small brown spots and she used liquid nitrogen. I was asked to pay prior to leaving...I have insurance. I was shocked when I got my EOB...outrageous charges and I overpaid my portion. It was a nightmare getting thru to the billing dept.
It is obvious...this is not a medical dermatology practice...it is cosmetic/money driven
