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.

This Dr is rude. People are dealing with cancer and she is so arrogant. She doesn’t take time to explain or listen, she has a big ego or a social disorder.

Do not go to her
This really breaks up heart to see and know that there is a radiation oncology doctor at prestigious MSK who has zero bedside manners and empathy. I would not be writing this review if she was not this bad. I work in healthcare, I am a ICU nurse and my mother has stage three lung cancer. During the entire course of proton beam therapy, we saw Dr. Lee three times and every single visit, she saw us for at most two minutes. She did not give me or my mother not even a second of her time to ask questions. She didn’t ask how she was doing after therapy. (My mom went to ED twice and had to get bronchoscopy five times within two months because of radiation induced necrosis per IP). She doesn’t communicate with my mother’s interventional pulmonologist (IP) and doesn’t care to. When I told her about this, she bluntly said “CT scan looks good, you will get email from mychart when PET scan results come back, see you in six months, ok? Ok.” She never showed us imaging.. she mistaken my mothers diag

Dr. Lee is wonderful and really knows her stuff. She may be tough but only because she really cares about you. not only will she treat the disease, she will minimize the complications. She is all about a cure and the best quality of life. She is tough because she treats you as family.

Dr. Nancy Lee is an outstanding Doctor who provided me exceptional care. During this difficult COVID period she maintained her focus on my case and coordinated closely when needed with my team of doctors. I don’t consider myself a high Maitainence individual but I wanted the best care available. I feel I received that from Dr. Lee.

You have cancer you want answers more than hugs and Dr. Lee has the answers. She's an expert in her field and while her bedside manner can be straight and to the point, you just have to know that she has the experience and the skills and that you've got a better shot for recovery with her.

Very arrogant and lack of empathy. Waited over 1.5 hours only to find out my appointment time was not moved up as promised. If we didn’t go to front desk to ask about the long wait, we would have been there for another 2 hours. The receptionist offered to let us go in after we complained. Well, dr lee walked by my room several times and after 30 minutes, pops her head in to say that I need to change rooms because my case is being transferred to another doctor. Run away from this doctor.
