Dr. Kim is absolutely wonderful… She’s also treating my Alpha-Gal, which is a condition that most don’t know about. My life changed completely with this treatment. I commute 2 hours to go see her, and I can tell you that it is worth it.

EXCELLENT Based on 66 reviews Michelle Grover 2025-03-11 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I are both being treated by Dr Kim. For the last 4 years my husband experienced trouble eating beef and pork. After googling symptoms we discovered he had Alpha-gal. After more research we found out there was a treatment with acupuncture and was able to find Dr Kim.
He has been treated 3 times with SAAT( needles in your ears) he has had 1 oz of beef 2 different times with no side effects. It’s truly amazing. He will continue to introduce more and more beef and Pork under Dr Kim’s guidance. Their office is beautiful with very caring individuals. The last visit was close to my husbands Birthday and this (see pictures) was in the room when he walked in. She certainly impressed him, after all he is a cookie lover. Not just any cookie but a crumbl cookie now he is hooked on crumbl.
We highly recommend them. There is no reason now to not enjoy beef and pork if you suffer from Alpha-gal! holly carson 2025-03-06 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Kim and her staff are awesome. You feel the calm energy as soon as you walk through the door. Everyone is very professional caring. I was having issues following surgery and Dr Kim has given me my life back! I'm once again in control and I’m so thankful. Donald Kilfin 2025-02-19 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Acupuncture of West Florida has been a Godsend to me. A few months back I developed nearly debilitating back pain and sciatica down my right leg - the culmination of years of weightlifting and prolonged sitting behind my desk at work. The pain was so bad I could not sit down for more than a few minutes, I read another of Dr. Kim's reviews over the holidays and decided to give her a call. After just a few sessions, the inflammation that was causing me so much trouble began to subside. After a few additional sessions I was able to sit for a few hours at a time with intermittent standing breaks. Dr. Kim and her staff are some of the most pleasant and professional people I have everybody worked with. I highly recommend Acupuncture of West Florida - I will be a patient for many years to come.

Rebecca Rutel 2024-12-17 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Kim and her staff have been absolutely wonderful. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia 2 years ago at age 35 and struggled to find a medicine combo that worked. I live with daily pain, especially in my back and feet. Acupuncture has been a game changer! Over the past 3 months, my pain levels have lowered little by little. I'm not entirely pain free yet, but I'm so much closer than I was. Thank you Acupuncture of West Florida! Joan Tonner 2024-10-22 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was skeptical of going to an acupuncturist but I didn't want to mask my neuropathy any more with medication's. It was getting worse. I stopped the meds to see how bad it really was. Could I save what nerve was left? Could I help the nerves recover? These were my questions. Dr. Kim was compassionate regarding the reality of neuropathy. Dr. Kim was honest about the need for an intense therapy which involved being seen three times a month for two months and then two times a month until I am finally at one time a week to treat my bilateral foot neuropathy. The commitment I made to this treatment to give my nerves a chance to recover has given me marked improvement with the symptoms of severe burning, tingling up my ankle to the calf and the leathery feeling that affected my balance. Having been to the office so many times I speak from experience that Dr. Kim is straightforward,, knowledgeable and confident in her approach. She adjusts to the individual's body and how they respond to her treatment. I must also include her team. They are empathetic, have a soft touch and are very hands-on with the treatment. I feel that all in the office have contributed to the improvement I have had in my journey to help my nerves recover a little and reduce my symptoms of neuropathy without medications! Mary Dito 2024-10-22 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Kim is very professional, calming any fears, & answering questions. The staff is diligent and cares for the patients' needs. Office ambiance very comfortable and pleasant. London Sterling 2024-09-09 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. In excruciating pain and desperate for relief, I Googled acupuncture near me. Acupuncture of West Florida had amazing reviews, and some even described my current debilitating symptoms. I made my appointment and prayed that this was the right path to choose. I have a reverse curve in my neck, and during the last 10 days, my 2 protruding neck vertebrae were causing me agonizing pain, bruised to the touch which were causing constant migraines. I’ve had this situation for years but NEVER to this extent. I also have a history of lower herniated disks in my back I was a real mess and freaking out. I arrived for my first acupuncture appointment and was immediately greeted with a warm welcome and smile. After explaining my pain, restricting movement and history, Dr Kim asked me a serious of questions and LISTENED TO ME!! Now came my first treatment🙏🏻🤞🏻It was AWESOME!! The specific areas were targeted and the results were INCREDIBLE!!! I had been given the gift of HOPE!! Even after only 1 session! I felt a relief of spasms and pain. It was instant!! Upon my 2nd appointment, I had 95% less bruised feeling in my neck, and my lower back pain was bearable. My 3rd appointment wasn’t until after the weekend. I stupidly battled some much needed yard cleanup, and worked way too hard for my current situation. I woke up on Sunday, nervous, and skeptical of what I was going to feel. I FELT GOOOD!! I could definitely tell that I had done some physical labor, but nothing to the effect of unexplainable pain and despair. I had my gift of HOPE still, and it wasn’t a fluke!! I couldn’t wait to tell Dr Kim and her amazing staff. I’ve now had 4 sessions and am so wanting to yell from the top of the mountain, that recovery IS possible and life IS doable again. Everyone at this location is warm, kind and always smiling. When dealing with the public, AND when they’re in pain, can’t be easy, but the positive energy and tranquil environment is exactly what I needed and am so grateful for my many TODAYS ahead. Thank you to all at Dr Kim’s Acupuncture of West Florida, for giving me my life back WITHOUT PILLS AND SURGERY. 🙏🏻😊 Martha Bruhn 2024-08-20 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
