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.

WORST doctor ever. She almost killed me and my baby. I kept feeling bad and swelling way before time. I knew something was bad. My rheumatologist ran some tests and spoke to Dr. Lee and she said I was exaggerating. Needless to say I went for a second opinion. Thanks to her I had 3 months of untreated preeclampsia, a very very bad anemia and my kidneys shut down. My baby had to be brought out emergency early and so needed 3 blood transfusions to bring me back. If you want to be killed by someone go with her.

If you would like to carry your baby/babies to term and without unnecessary anxiety and stress and unnecessary diagnostics, procedures, genetic testing, counseling, etc., etc., then please avoid Dr Young Lee. She will urge you - repeatedly - should any suspicion of a small complication show up, to abort or threaten you with the fear of genetic abnormalities. At every one of my appointments for my twins with Dr Lee, she tried to convince me of yet another problem - the neck is too thick, the hear

Dr. Lee recently delivered my twin baby boys at 37 weeks 1 day. After recurrent UTI's and shirt cervix, she was able to support me and guide me and helped me carry to full term. My babies were good sized at 6.5 and 7.2 pounds and had no NICU time. I owe my wellbeing and babies good health to her. Staff is very friendly and helpful as well. Highly recommended specially to high risk pregnancy moms.

Dr. Lee delivered my twin babies beautifully about a year ago. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Lee. She is so knowledgeable, professional, and highly efficient. She's the best you can hope for in a doctor. To another reviewer: Just to be fair-do you really want a doctor who is tired to take care of you? She's doing things in your best interest! I'm not the type of person who's keen on writing thank-you letters, but I would certainly stand out to defend her when she is unfairly judged.

STAY AWAY! She withheld vital information concerning the positioning of my baby, leading me to have a complicated and excruciatingly painful labor. I ended up with injuries from which I continue to suffer to this day, with no guarantee that I will fully heal. And what's worse: When I asked her a specific question in connection with what occurred, she evaded my question and provided a non-responsive 'answer'

She was highly recommended by my friend who had a high risk pregnancy. Dr. Lee delivered my first child wonderfully as well. Now I am going back to her for my second pregnancy. She answered all my complicated questions, monitor me in detail during entire pregnancy. She is always on time, sharp, and listen me carefully. I and my family feel blessed to have her as my doctor.

NEVER EVER EVER!!! I will never go to this doctor, never would I have her as my OBGYN or recommend her even to my enemy if I had one.. More so I would never again give birth in this hospital. The doctor is cold, never warned me of certain things, was not there for me because she was tired, horrible doctor, they incorrectly placed my epideral, twice, everything was a nightmare. Stay away.
