professional portrait of resident - Alexis Kim

Alexis Kim, MD

PGY-3

Medical School: Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University

Hometown:  Born in Seoul, Korea, but moved around a lot in the US (NC, CT, PA, VA). Richmond is my home for now.

Favorite part about being a resident at VCU:  The people – we have faculty members who are very approachable and residents who are like family

Best spot(s) in Richmond:  Scott’s Addition has a lot to offer from breweries to restaurants

Hobbies and Interests:  I am a traveler and a food/coffee adventurer

Interesting/fun fact about me:  I am bi-lingual (English and Korean), and I WILL challenge you to a spicy food eating contest

My superpower would be:  The Perfect Comeback—no matter what someone says, I wish my brain would give me the wittiest, funniest, and most charming response instantly. No more, “ugh, I should’ve said that!” moment three hours later.
