Dr. Kim specifically sought out and joined Hawaii Pacific Neuroscience (HPN) because she deeply resonated with HPN’s commitment to serving a diverse patient population especially those who are underserved. Growing up and trained in New York City, she strongly advocates for breaking down socioeconomic barriers to healthcare access.
She recognized that headache disorders demand a multifaceted approach, encompassing considerations such as sleep patterns, mood, stress levels, dietary habits, and concurrent medical comorbidities. She is excited about establishing a one-of-a-kind comprehensive headache program, through collaborative efforts working with sleep, preventive lifestyle and other specialists. She is excited to bring new advancements in headache treatments and research leveraging her fellowship experience, to maximize treatment outcome and enhance patients’ quality of life.
