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 is both charming and warm. She explained things in great detail, and was very thorough in her examination and explanation. Brava! in all respects

Dr Lee is very nice, efficient and responsible and is taking care of my thyroid condition. She emails after test results, follows up with Rx orders and test requisitions right away. All this saves time between visits and accomplishes everything quickly. I find her professional and caring and recommend her highly

She was a delight as a person, seemed excellent as a doctor and spent a great deal
If time with me. She elicited my thoughts and concerns and gave me total confidence she could help - if we worked in partnership.

Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Lee?
I saw Dr.Lee to look after my thyroid issue I've been dealing with for 20+ years. Having this issue for so long, I feel more educated than most patients she likely has seen. Her staff was god and the office clean, however she referenced online resources a number of times during my appointment which really scared me. I found a new doctor in a nearby clinic who was also a specialist and I've been far more satisfied there.

Dr.Lee is fine, she helps with diabetes but nothing more. She makes for me many referrals but herself can not help much.
