About me

Hello! My name is Paul Kim, but members call me Dr. Paul. I know that choosing the right pediatrician for your child is an important decision. I hope this page will help you learn about me and my practice. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

Biography

I am a Southern California native, but my medical training has taken me across the country. I attended medical school at A.T. Still University of Health Sciences in Arizona, then completed pediatric residency at the Children’s Hospital of Michigan. I am thrilled to be back in California and no longer having to shovel snow! I am married to my college sweetheart and am a father to 3 beautiful daughters.

About my practice

My pursuit of medicine began following a mission trip abroad as a college student at UCLA. I witnessed the detrimental effects of poverty and the lack of healthcare, which fueled my desire to become a doctor who can positively impact a community. I believe health starts with prevention and health education. As a pediatrician, I consider it a privilege to partner with parents in caring for their child throughout their growth and development. I love the opportunity to build lasting relationships, and my goal is to be a physician who is relatable, attentive, and understanding. I look forward to seeing members grow and empowering them to make healthy lifestyle choices. I am dedicated to lifelong learning so that I can provide medical care based on current evidence and research.

How I thrive

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family. I love to explore the outdoors with my children by biking, hiking, or catching critters by a creek. I am an aquarist and find joy in cultivating aquariums, as it is both a science and an art. As my children grow, I am excited to share my love for motor sports, snowboarding, and traveling.
