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.

Excellent Treatment
I’m a career artist, so when my drawing hand started developing trigger finger and chronic stiffness, I was in a panic. Much to my relief, Dr. Lee was able to quickly diagnose me and treat my hands without surgery and with injections. Thankfully, the injections have completely improved my hands’ health! I’m still able to continue my creative work and draw without hindrance. Thank you, Dr Lee and your helpful Glendale staff.

Dr. C. Lee did a trigger thumb release and a trigger finger release years ago and I'm going back for another finger release, as we say in the medical field this is a go-to doctor one of the best.

Excellent service. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. They got me in on the same day the authorization went through to treat my broken wrist. Dr. Lee thoroughly explained treatment options and answered all my questions. Very pleasant environment and not a long wait.

About Me

care philosophy

I try to communicate with my patients. I strive to explain their medical condition and discuss their treatment options in plain language. Questions are answered. I want no patient to leave the office thinking they were rushed through their visit.
