Meet John S. Kim, MD


I have been a primary care family physician at Victory Medical Center in Austin, Texas, since 1997. I have over 26 years of experience as a diagnostician, reviewing complex medical problems with empathy and compassion. I believe medicine is a blend of science and art. As your personal physician, I strive to stay up to date with the latest studies to help me discuss care options with you. In my MDVIP-affiliated practice, I have more time to get to know my patients and their personalities more deeply, which helps me partner with them to create a more personalized plan as they strive to meet their health goals. I feel people can work to manage their health more effectively if they can understand their conditions; consequently, I spend time educating my patients to help simplify complex medical jargon. 

My real passion is preventive medicine. There is helpful medical knowledge available to help prevent disease, but I think it is being underutilized in the current traditional medical model. My MDVIP-affiliated practice, often compared to a concierge medicine practice, offers conveniences like same- or next-day appointments with minimal wait time. My unique practice also offers more time and tools to help my patients as they work to meet and exceed their health goals. Together we can pursue healthier results!

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.

Testimonials from patients of John S. Kim, MD

Silent Struggle

from Liana in TX • March 11, 2024
Dr. Kim played a crucial role in transforming my life by uncovering previously undiagnosed sensorineural hearing loss. During the annual MDVIP wellness exam, through the in-depth series of tests and screenings, Dr. Kim discovered I might have a hearing deficit. Hearing loss wasn’t anywhere on my radar but after he asked some follow-up questions, he decided to refer me to an audiologist. It has Read more...

Preventative Maintenance

from Mark in TX • March 11, 2024
Dr. Kim and I go back almost 20 years ! He put me on medications in my 30's that I did not particularly like or really agreed with. The thing is I could not see what Dr. Kim saw. I was showing a pattern of levels elevating over the past 3 years. So what He suggested was I take certain medications for preventative maintenance so to speak. WELL, here I am in my 50's and I am thankful for Read more...

Dr Kim is THE MAN!

from Lisa in TX • February 22, 2024
I could actually share a couple of stories, but I'm not allowed that many characters: so, I'll do the best I can. My first encounter with Dr Kim, was me bringing one of our (my employer) residents in for his appointment. I was in awe of Kim; I called my dad and told him; that I had just met the "doctor him" he knows All, about everything, he's so interesting to listen Read more...

Super responsive

from Mark in TX • February 18, 2024
We have an excellent relationship with Dr. Kim and have always found him to be very responsive and quick to answer questions or handle problems. In one recent case my autistic son was scheduled to go to the DMV for an early Monday morning appointment and I suddenly realized at 9 PM on Sunday night that a Dr. certification was required to include his communication problems on the actual license Read more...

Dr. Kim is our physician and friend. Alliteration used here :) because he also uses light humor and anecdotes along with medical nomenclature in his deliverance of analysis and diagnosis. That’s an easier pill to swallow.
I have included a photo demonstrating his personal
engagement in treatment.
I texted him while he was attending a sports event. He responded with this photo Read more...
