Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Excellent physician with a caring and knowledgeable demeanor

Excellent Physician
Dr. Lee is competent, caring, intelligent doctor. I have multiple complex health problems, am on daily multiple medications and am receiving monthly infusions. Dr. Lee has always listened to any concern I have, she asks multiple questions every time I see her to be sure she has all the information needed, she is very knowledgeable and stays up to date on the most recent diagnostic and treatment information and trends. I have never, ever felt rushed, disregarded or disrespected by her or any member of her staff. Full disclosure, I am a nurse and though I have never worked for or with Dr. Lee, I know a good doctor when I interact with one. She is an amazing doctor and I am grateful to be her patient.

Both wife and I have had poor experience with lack of diagnosis. In one instance suffered for over a year until saw a specialist who diagnosed and provided a simple non-prescription solution. Wife just found out undiagnosed problem from unrelated specialist. Doesn't want to be bothered with what is/isn't covered by insurance. Phone maize has to be negotiated wasting much time before actually speaking with staff. We have great specialists but NOT primary care.

Unless you have high blood pressure, diabetes, or other common health issues, she is unable to help. Communication is extremely difffucut. She takes at you rather than listen in order to better understand. Compassionate care and patient trust is clearly not her priority.
