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.

Agressive septoplasty recommendation
I went to Dr Lee for sinus infection. He gave me antibiotics and pressed me for septoplasty and I agreed initially. After a few weeks my infection did not go away and I was worrying if it would affect my septoplasty success. He said 'do you want to continue with your infection?' I could not connect why my life long deviated septum would prevent my sinus infection from recovering. Then I saw another ENT Dr, who said I did not need septoplasty. My acid reflux went up to my sinus and caused the infection. Since then I have seen multiple doctors on my deviated septum and all of them said I don't need a septoplasty. Dr Lee's suggestion of septoplasty before other treatments is questionable.

I've been going to Dr. Lee for years now for routine ear wax removal. He is way better than anyone else I've had do the removal and is very personable as well. Highly recommend.

Dr. Lee snuck in a $237.50 nasal scope into a routine consultation. Readers should be careful before allowing him to insert what looks to be a cotton sleeve into your nose. It is actually anesthetic for this costly procedure.
