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.

Knee replacement
Meeting Dr Lee Jr. I was in a depressive state. I got hurt on the job and under workman's Comp. I prior surgery that didn't help. I needed a total replacement and was having issues getting approved. Dr Lee fought for me 2 yrs to finally get approved. Just before surgery I found out I had cancer. Dr Lee kept in contact with me throughout my treatments and very empathetic. He did not rush to do the surgery only when I was comfortable. He and the staff supplied me with everything I needed. I challenged them to help me with things they normally dont do. They never turned me away. It's was always we will try our best. Not one time have I been disappointed in his entire team. I would recommend Dr Lee to family and friends anyone in passing. I'm am very appreciative to all parties involved.

Dr. Lee Sr., and Dr. Lee Jr.
I love Dr. Lee Sr., and Dr. Lee Jr., they are the best. When I run into people that had the same surgery, we talk and laugh, about how they make us feel like family, when we go into their office. The women and men that work there,, know their job are excellent at what they do.They are the best and I refer everyone that I know to them.

Great personality - very compassionate- I saw Dr James Lee, Jr this week and was very impressed. He’s so compassionate and listens carefully. He doesn’t make you feel rushed and takes his time with you. His staff was very kind and I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention Linda in the office. She was so helpful. I would highly recommend him. And, his office is very easy to get to and there’s plenty of parking.
