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.

I have been going to Dr. Lee for the past half year and he has been a great source for mental health guidance. He has a very sweet and gentle demeanor to him, which makes it very easy to talk and be open with him. Not only is he approachable and a great listener, but he is also very compassionate and understanding.

A kind listener
I have come to know Doctor Lee through the TeleDoc platform! He is easy to talk to, listens, and has a good approach. His treatment plan has helped my husband tremendously. He starts medication out slowly and monitors your response in frequent visits but over time the frequency is lengthened! Compassionate, helpful, has empathy, asks the right questions. I would highly recommend him! I am so thankful he sees patients through Teladoc! My husband had depression/anxiety his whole life, but never would talk face to face with a provider. This approach through Teledoc from the comfort of his own home along with a fantastic provider has been an answer to a long awaited prayer!

Dr lee diagnosed me with bipolar and got me on the right meds after years of depression/adhd diagnosis and meds that either did nothing or made me worse. He is very approachable and open, with a genuine sense of humor. Thank you for all you have done for me dr lee. God bless

Dr Lee changed my antidepressant and it was the best thing that could have happened to me. I feel better than I have felt in I don't remember when. He felt my previous med was not doing what it should have done for me. I am so grateful he addressed this and also found a way to help me with my sleeping problems.

He was very rude the entire time. After two seconds he tried to change my meds which was not what's I wanted. He asked if I was suicidal and when I told him I cut my wrists, he made a fake sad face and made a cutting motion with his finger on his wrist for a minute. I have never felt so disrespected in what is supposed to be a professional setting. Do not go see this doctor.

He straight up sat there and called me an attention seaker and refused to change my meds. I had my husband sit in an appointment with me because it was unbelievable how he treated me. I eventually went to another psychiatrist and was diagnosed with 4 mental disorders. I've been on meds for 6 months and feel amazing. Dr Lee is a horrible Dr and made me feel like I was crazy. He's very unprofessional.
