Our Medical Director
Julie H. Kim, M.D., FACP
Dr. Julie Kim is board-certified in Internal Medicine, with over 25 years of medical experience. She has been serving as Medical Director of Brain Treatment Center since 2013.
Raised in Columbus, Ohio, Dr. Julie Kim attended and graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Sciences from Kent State University. Through a 6 year combined undergraduate medical school program, she obtained her MD from Northeastern Ohio University College of Medicine in 1996. Subsequently, she completed her residency at Lutheran General Hospital in Des Plaines, IL, with a specialization in Internal Medicine and sub-specialization in Women’s Health. She is ABIM Board Certified in Internal Medicine and a Fellow of the American College of Physicians.
Prior to joining the Brain Treatment team, she spent the next 14 years practicing primary care in the Chicago suburbs and Southern California. During her earlier years, she cultivated a deep connection to her patients and a life-long commitment to providing compassionate, high-quality care in both large corporate and boutique medical settings. She is among the highest-rated physicians with excellent patient satisfaction scores in her field.
Since joining the Brain Treatment Center in 2013, she has pioneered and worked extensively with the treatment of patients with PTSD, TBI, addiction, stroke, autism, and other brain disorders. She co-created the initial safety protocols and physician training programs for the dissemination of MeRT (Magnetic E-Resonance) technology. She has been invited to speak to major corporations in Seattle, as well as sports conglomerates about MeRT technology, and discuss where MeRT therapy can aid in improving quality of life and enhancing the performance of employees and athletes.
While there, I watched children with autism begin to change as well as other individuals and colleagues find hope for a better future. This resonated within me and after having a 20-year fulfilling career, I felt I had found another purpose to dedicate myself to and decided to start my own clinic to help bring wellness to others who are struggling like I once did.
Owner and Managing Director
Greg Andrews
Brain health is a very personal and important mission for me.
During my 20 years of service as a US Navy SEAL and over 14 combat deployments, I received multiple traumatic brain injuries from explosions.
Over the next several years, the negative effects became apparent. I struggled with anxiety, depression, confusion, headaches, and sleep issues. I was offered medications to treat the symptoms. However, I wanted to go deeper and get to the root cause to resolve the issues.
After years of searching, I found the MeRT treatment through the Brain Treatment Center in San Diego, California. I spent 7 weeks going through the MeRT treatment. I learned about what was happening in my brain to cause those symptoms.
Early into the treatment, I started sleeping through the night after years of broken and unhealthy sleepless nights. After 6 weeks, I noticed a dramatic improvement in the other issues. I finally started to heal and feel like myself again.
