About

Sunghee Kim, DNP was born and raised in Seoul, South Korea and is a fluent Korean speaker. 

“I chose to become a nurse practitioner because I was drawn to the unique blend of science and humanity. My passion for healthcare is rooted in forging a strong human connection and building trust with patients. My patient-centered philosophy and experience in coordinating complex care allow me to directly improve patient outcomes through skills in patient education, progress monitoring, and multidisciplinary collaboration.”

Sunghee earned her Doctor of Nursing Practice degree at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore and her Master’s degree in the Adult Nurse Practitioner program at Loma Linda University. “My role is to be a dedicated listener and trusted advisor, working with my patients in a true partnership to find health solutions that align with their life and goals,” she notes. “Witnessing the struggles and resilience of my patients has been a deeply reflective and profound experience, shaping me into a more compassionate provider.”

Sunghee Kim has a DNP---a clinical Doctorate---the highest level for a Nurse Practitioner! She is exceptional. She is thorough, knowledgeable, and so very caring. As a retired RN, BSN, I give her my highest recommendation!
