David Kim, MD
Pathologist
My Role at MSKWe post reviews for MSK healthcare providers who have at least 30 patient experience surveys completed. If you do not see reviews for a provider, it may be because they do not yet have enough survey responses, or the provider may not be part of the group of healthcare providers included in the survey.
Only outpatient providers are included in the survey. Healthcare providers who only work in the hospital or in urgent care are not included in the survey. Pathologists or researchers who do not provide direct care to patients do not have reviews.

About Me
- Assistant Attending Physician
I am a pathologist who specializes in cytopathology and molecular genetic pathology. My primary role is to investigate diseases to diagnose and guide cancer treatment.
My research interests involve the development of genetic tests and artificial intelligence algorithms on small biopsy samples to advance cancer treatment. I work closely with colleagues from surgical oncology, medical oncology, and radiology to deliver the best care to our patients.
A pathologist is a doctor who uses a microscope to make a diagnosis from cell and tissue samples. They analyze the samples to learn the cause and effects of a health condition.
