Cho Long Kim, NMD, PMHNP-BC

Dr. Kim completed her undergraduate work at the University of California, Riverside, in 2004, with a Bachelor’s in Biochemistry. While on her own health journey, she decided to enter the Naturopathic profession to fulfill her dreams to treat the mind, body and spirit using non-invasive, natural means to help patients find their way back to healing the way nature intended. This led her to pursue Naturopathic Medicine as it offered her the best tools to address and treat the root cause of disharmony within individuals needing aid.

She received her Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine in 2008, graduating from the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine in Tempe, Arizona. During her training, she developed an interest in Addiction Medicine and actively focused her practice with this emphasis, as well as all the naturopathic modalities (acupuncture, nutrition, homeopathy, traditional Chinese medicine, naturopathic physical manipulation therapy, etc.) to help bring the body back to balance. She further continued her education by obtaining her PMHNP-BC to further help those who are underserved and underinsured suffering from addiction and other mental disorders.

Currently, Dr. Kim is honored to serve as the Medical Director of Arizuma while working with patients in drug and alcohol treatment through the valley as a provider. She also works within the community as an advocate for comprehensive, unstigmatized care and being a steward of mindful use of medications. She holds two active faculty appointments at the collegiate level and maintains a professional vlog and podcast on health, empowerment, and equity in the society we live in today. As a cancer survivor, Dr Kim “walks the walk” as she continuously advocates for self-care with her love for yoga, meditation, strength training and indoor cycling.
