About Me

Hi, I’m Dr. Richard Kim. Pain can be discouraging.  Holding you back, when you know you could go further.  We are dedicated to help you heal that knee pain.  Without surgery.  Without medications.  Our consult will explain how we make joint pain, arthritis, injuries, and soreness gone. 

Our method is :

How can we help you?

The knee conditions we treat.

  • Osteoarthritis
  • Knee rheumatoid arthritis
  • Meniscus tear 
  • Medial collateral ligament 
  • Patellar tendinosis, tendinopathy
  • Anterior cruciate ligament injury 
  • Tendonitis
  • Bursitis
  • Sprain
  • Strain
  • Baker’s Cyst

Patients of all severity can benefit from our process.  We understand everyone’s pain and situation is different.  Our plan for you will depend on your history, exam, and imaging.  If you would like a comprehensive plan please consult with Dr. Kim for your individualized therapy.

Factors that influence the therapy include:

  • Additional medical problems
  • Goals for activity

If you are unsure whether you will be a good candidate, we recommend a consultation with Dr. Kim. We can also develop a plan to optimize underlying conditions before you return for treatment.

Age does not affect success.  Our successful patients’ age ranges from 20’s to 90’s. 

We are able to treat both knees in certain situations and with certain therapies.  After careful evaluation and our comprehensive plan is created we can plan to treat both knees together or separately.

There are several instructions specific to our process.  2 weeks prior we advise to stop NSAIDs (ibuprofen, naproxen, possibly aspirin) and alcohol. We also schedule a consultation with our dietitian to help further prepare you from a nutritional standpoint.

Parts of the process are covered by insurance, while certain elements are not. We will review what your individual insurance will cover during our consultation.

Our process applies to areas including:

  • Spine/back
  • Upper Extremity
  • Elbow
  • Wrist
  • Hands
  • Lower Extremity
  • Hips
  • Knees
  • Ankles
  • Feet

Patient’s can feel a difference as soon as 2 weeks, but typically 4 weeks.  A single process leads to years of relief, strength, and stability.  One major advantage is that our process can be repeated.
