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.

Dr. Lee did my surgery two & 1/2 weeks ago. She removed my Sigmoid colon and a small part of the small intestine. Before going into surgery, she made sure that I was comfortable with the surgery and also anything that could go wrong. She answers all questions with honesty and integrity and never gives the impression that she is to busy to talk. All in all, I highly recommend Dr. Lee.

Dr. Lee is the absolute best!! When I was told that I would have to have a colostomy bag, I was completely floored. She was gentle and very informing with my diagnosis and helped me understand all that I was going to experience. I am one of the lucky ones and was able to have my procedure reversed, an operation that she also performed. She is the only doctor that I kept in Boise when I chose to be treated at the Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Arizona, and I will never see another colorectal surgeon for as long as I am the one who makes the decision.

She saved my mom's life and completely changed her quality of life. She is seriously a miracle worker. Her bedside manner is kind, caring and thoughtful. She exhausts less invasive options instead of jumping straight to surgery. Ultimately surgery was our best option and she was phenomenal. She did it robotically, less invasive. I hope I never need her expertise but if anybody in my family does, she will be our first call. I can't stress enough how much she helped my mom.

I cannot recommend Dr. Lee enough! She is calm and confident in her abilities, explains herself thoroughly, takes time to answer all of your questions, eases your pre/post opp surgery anxiety, never makes you feel rushed unimportant, and talks to you in a very caring way. Everytime I've had an appointment with her, I leave her office feeling less anxious and afraid. 10/10 I would recommend her.

At 22 years old i ended up having an embarrassing issue that dr lee took care of no problem. Her bed side mannars are absolutely stellar! She is knowledgable and a great listener. She will answer all your questions and will explain them in non-doctor lingo which is fantastic in my opinion. The wait in the office is not short but its not long, and scheduling is weird sometimes but its totally worth getting in to see dr lee! 10/10 would recommend!

Dr. Lee has been wonderful to work with. I always feel that she listens and answers my questions. She has called me back personally multiple times to review information and check on how I am doing. I couldn't be more grateful to have her as my doctor.
