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.

Avoid Dr. Lee
I went to Dr Lee for treatment of severe back pain and balance challenges. What Dr. Lee failed to notice was one hip was lower than the other which caused my spine to twist. This was caused by a prior hip replacement. I don't think he even looked at my xrays. He recommended a procedure that had no impact on my condition. He never fallowed up to see how I was afterwards. The staff displayed the proffesionalism of a frat party. I finally found somebody that came up with a solution. They had me wear lifts in my shoes to rebalance my hips. Totally cured now.

Excellent Physician
Dr Lee is an outstanding physician. I have had several injections due to a bad back and he really does everything he can to help you feel better. He is very precise with his injections. He is very personable, kind and assertively addresses your concerns. I have felt so cared for by him. He is a great listener and advocates for what you need to feel better.

After a fall on my right knee 6 weeks after L3/4 spine fusion surgery, I was referred to Dr. Lee for knee pain. Dr. Lee diagnosed me with peripheral neuropathy in December, 2018. On June 10th a neurologist in the same practice removed the diagnosis from my medical record after a thorough neurological examination and reviewing all my medical records. I have osteoarthritis in my knee. I should have requested a 2nd opinion or more testing from Dr. Lee before proceeding to treatment for neuropathic pain.

I have been battling a diagnosed torn PCL for 9 mos. PT giving me know relief. I was referred to Dr. Lee who’s specialty is Sports Medicine and PRP Injections. Today I had my PRP with Ultra Sound that showed 37cc of fluid on my knee that Dr. Lee removed before the PRP. I’m like a new guy tonight after 9 mos of Pain and limited mobility. After 9 mos I see a light at the end of the tunnel because of Dr Lee’s expertise.. Warren White

I started seeing Dr. Lee in January 2017 - after a few frustrating appts with an orthopedist nearby. Dr. Lee was very patient, listening to me as I explained my symptoms and the impact they had on my life. He did a few quick tests, and realized the orthopedist wasn't even looking at the right part of my body! He never makes me feel rushed when I have an appt - and makes sure he explains things so I understand. I will definitely go back to him for any other pain issues!

After I ruptured my L4 a year and a half ago playing squash, 50% rupture the MRI showed. I was told by 2 independent surgeons that I would require immediate surgery. Thanks to Dr. Lee's extensive help I recovered without the surgery and now 100% recovered and even back to running 10k's with my wife, biking and various activities with no nerve or pain issues. I could not be happier with the outcome and the impact Dr. Lee had on me and my life. Thanks again! /MRT

CAUTION: TERRIBLE DOCTOR! I had to wait 3 weeks in pain to see the Dr. In my visit, the Dr. spent a total of 5-10min with me. In this time, he had some small talk. Didn't really explain what my MRI results meant, why I have the condition, and how it might have been caused. Neither did he tell me how I might be able to prevent this type of injury to my disc. He said he could give me a shot in my disc. And referred me to PT. He also recommended Chiropractor. This is unacceptable for a specialist!
