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.

Great!
It was a quick procedure for me. I had a spot on my chin. When it bled the second day, the night people contacted Dr. Lee and he did a video call with me 5 mins later. He assured me it was normal so I got peace of mind right away which is important to me. Molly called me the very next day to check on me which felt good.

It was more Traumatic than I expected.
I have had numerous skin/pre cancers removed and have never found the procedures to be as invasive and, what is the accurate word, distressing as this one was. It was a fairly deep seated cancer on my nose that had to be dug out twice in a Moh's surgery, with the healthy skin on the nose cut, pulled over the wound and stitched. I will be careful about exposing my skin to the sun in the future; lots of sunblock. Having said this, the surgery simply had to be done and Dr. Lee and his assistant were professional and competent. The numbing process is painful; lots of nerves in the nose. The actual procedure is painless but you can feel what is being done and it is difficult to experience. It's been @ 18 days since the surgery and the wound is healing nicely. Thank you both for getting this done!! I hope I never have to have this done again!

I have had 3 rounds of Mohs surgery with Dr. Lee. Dr. Lee and his entire staff are so friendly and helpful. As I have spent time there I have had the opportunity to speak with Dr. Lee at length and also his team members. The level of skill and competence is amazing!! I would definitely return there.

Staff put me at ease and the procedure was explained to me by Dr Lee... first in general and then each step as we went along. My questions and comments were answered as we went along. I was given written directions for post operative care and a follow up appointment was provided for my convenience. Dr Lee's skill is evidenced by my results. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

Dr. Lee and the staff were efficient, pleasant, attentive, and experts at making a person feel comfortable. Even the soft music played in the background was just as it should be. Most telling for me is the way those in the waiting room shared with each other, talking comfortably and openly, like old friends (old friends who had just met!). High credit goes to all of the office, to Dr. Lee especially.
