‘An inspiration’ | Dr. Tom Kim, founder of Kim Health Center, passes away.
Dr. Tom Kim opened his first Free Medical Clinic of America on Chapman Highway in 1993 and helped thousands of patients.
The clinic at 6209 Chapman Highway, Knoxville, TN 37920, is still helping with free or low cost healthcare. A second clinic has opened at 1610 Magnolia Ave (at the PTSCC campus) Knoxville, TN, 37917.
Many thanks to Dr. Kim for what he did to help those in need for over 30 years. Thank an immigrant today.
