Apr 12, 2025
Dr. James N. Kim is one of the worst lung specialist I have ever met, I am so glad I did not made him my lung doctor, he treated me at Pottstown Hospital when I was admitted for asthma and pneumonia, he was there for Friday, Saturday and Sunday and what a nightmare. Saturday he came very late, opened the door, no stethoscope nothing, he said he will keep meds same, when I asked him will you check if my asthma is flaring up, he said I don't have my stethoscope, nice excuse. Then Sunday he came I was still very sick, even had bad chest pain early morning, he checked my lungs and then did not say anything, I asked him why I am having the pain, why meds are not working for me, there must be something going an for every question I asked his answer was 'I DON'T KNOW' I was so sad and I said you are my main doctor and if you say I don't know what I am supposed to do. He again said 'I DON'T KNOW' and left the room.
