Faces of Healthcare 2025: Excel Spine Center

SDM Top Docs 2025 (All)

Choll W. Kim, MD, PhD

At Excel Spine, Dr. Choll Kim understands that every patient’s pain—and their journey to healing—is a unique, personal experience that deserves unique, personalized attention. A Harvard-educated, board-certified spine surgeon, Dr. Kim prides himself on treating every patient as he would treat a member of his family. 

Dr. Kim provides VIP concierge service where patients can expect a real person to answer the phone within two rings, and appointments are available within days of calling—either in-person or virtually, depending on your preference. Dr. Kim provides every patient with his personal cell number, so they have the support they need throughout treatment. And as a world leader in Laser Endoscopic Spine Surgery (LESS), Dr. Kim’s innovative approach allows most patients to walk soon after surgery and to go home that same day.

Using minimally invasive treatments to address all facets of spinal disorders, Dr. Kim gives patients back their quality of life. His treatments focus on taking patients’ pain away today while setting them up to live comfortable lives long after their procedures.
