Episode Highlight: “I found a note from years ago when I was going through boxes of memorabilia. And one of the things I found was a note that said, 'When I grow up I want to be a pediatrician.' I had forgotten I wrote that. For me, preventive care is really important and I really like working with children because I feel you're getting into the child's care and talking about disease prevention before it happens..” – Dr. Kim
