Jessica H. Kim, MD, FAAD

I have been seeing Dr. Kim for approximately one year and have found her and her staff to be caring and supportive. When Dr. Kim walks into the room, she greets me with a warm smile and is always happy. She is very professional and knowledgeable about current therapies and treatments. Whenever I have had questions, Dr. Kim was able to answer them in detail and make me feel comfortable. I receive compliments daily on how beautiful my skin looks! This is definitely due to Dr. Kim and her passion to make my skin look healthier & younger. Thank you!!

If I could give ten stars to Dr. Jessica Kim and Summit Dermatology, I would. Dr. Kim’s professionalism, knowledge, skill, and ability are top-notch. And I can attest that she has the gentlest touch whether meticulously examining my skin with her fingers or deftly using the latest instruments and devices with precision. All the members of her staff at Summit Dermatology (Daija, Abby, Stacia, et al) are very proficient in their craft and fully dedicated to serving the clients. When I walk into SD, the cozy surroundings of the office and the warmth of the greetings from her staff put me comfortably at ease. I know immediately that I’m in good hands.

Most recently, I was at Summit Dermatology for a HALO laser therapy procedure. Two weeks prior to having the treatment, Dr. Kim carefully explained to me all the aspects of the HALO procedure (what was being done, how long it would take, what I would feel when the lasers were applied to my skin, etc.), the recovery measures following the treatment, and the long-term impact the HALO therapy would have on my facial skin issues. She also provided me with accurate written materials that complemented and supplemented what she briefed me. Now that I’ve had the treatment, I can verify that it all happened in exactly the way Dr. Kim told me it would happen. I faithfully followed her post-procedure instructions and the recovery treatment oils and lotions she provided me worked beautifully to ease facial discomfort and stimulate healthy skin recovery.

Dr. Kim and her wonderful staff at Summit Dermatology are quite simply the very best. I’m nearly 73 and for almost 20 years Dr. Kim has been my dermatologist treating my medical and cosmetic skin issues – I trust her completely. Summit Dermatology is my place to go and Dr. Kim is my doctor to see. I strongly recommend that you make Summit Dermatology your place to go and Dr. Jessica Kim your dermatologist, too.

Dr. Kim and her entire staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and inviting. I never felt rushed, and everyone made sure to constantly check that I was comfortable throughout the appointment. I felt listened to and encouraged to ask any questions or voice any concerns. It was a great experience from start to finish, and I will absolutely be returning.

I've been seeing Dr. Kim for 2 yrs now and she and her staff are the BEST EVER. I started mainly going for Botox then she consulted with me about skin care and the sun damage I had caused myself from tanning beds and just being out in the sun, not using sunscreen. I have just completed 3 IPL's and mu skin looks great. Yhe compliments I get, the years I've taken off my face my caring for my face has made me feel very good and very self confident. Having a very caring staff and helping me realize the importance of taking care of my skin will definitely keep me coming back to Dr. Kim, a very caring individual. Thank you Dr. Kim and her entire staff at Summit Dermatology.

as soon as I walked in I knew this was my place. The girls that helped me were great. They did a thorough job explaining all the details to the service! When doctor Kim came in she was so great. I was a little nervous but she reassured me and was excited for me! Her and Michaela works great together to get the job done! Thanks so much guys!!!

Dr. Kim was wonderful. She explained the procedure step by step on what she was going to do before taking any steps. Told me how long it will take to see any noticable changes and how many session it might require. Through out the session, she continue to ask me if i was doing ok. The procedure was quick and painless. Thank you, Dr. Kim!!! I

I found ultherapy painful, I couldn’t even complete the session. Dr, Kim and Abby were
Awesome though. Dr. Kim prescribed me Valium and we re-scheduled for a week later.
It was a little better but still painful. Abby is the only reason I was able to continue, she gave me
Several breaks and scheduled extra time for me.
I will be a regular at Summit Dermatology, their expertise and wide range of services is awesome to have so close.

Just returned from my third IPL treatment with Dr. Jessica Kim at Summit Dermatology in Olympia, WA. Dr. Kim and the Summit staff are professional, and don't keep patients waiting in the lobby. I appreciate her candid communication and suggestions without a heavy sales pitch. Aging and brown spots disappear over several days with one or two IPL treatments. Will keep getting this treatment with the team at Summit Dermatology!

I had Radiesse on my marionette lines about 12 weeks ago. I was very bruised and it was very painful. Within a week of the injection it started to look like I had had nothing done at all. I went to see the doctor and she injected me with more Radiesse. This time I did not bruise as badly but my entire chin became very red. Not just the injection sites but my entire chin.

Then about four weeks after that the doctor lasered the chin area. There was absolutely no difference at all in the amount of redness in the chin area. During the entire 12 weeks,I have been using the prescription cream Biafine. It has not made any difference at all.

After all these weeks I am still very red. I would not even consider getting any more Radiesse even though it does need more. Did this doctor put in more Radiesse too soon after the initial injection? This doctor is a Board Certified Dermatologist.

What can be done about the redness? Did the doctor inject me to soon after the first procedure?
