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.

Terrible Office Staff
I recently had a colonoscopy with Dr. Lee because he recommended it. His office staff assured me that they received prior authorization from my insurance and that it would be covered 100%. After the procedure, I received a very large bill. Turns out they were wrong because I was a few months too young. They would not even allow me to make payments. Just sent me to collections. The office staff's comment was 'It happens.' I will not use him again.

Dr Lee is an awesome Dr. I highly recommend him.
I have been seeing Dr Lee for 3-4 years. I have been through 4 procedures with him and I always feel very well taken care of. Dr Lee is professional, caring and will explain the good bad and ugly in a way for you to understand. He will explain how you got there and how you and Dr Lee will move forward with your treatment.

Review of both ER endoscopy and follow up
Initially assigned Dr. Lee when I went in for esophageal and GI bleeding. Dr. Lee came by to see me and introduced himself, in the procedure room his team was A+. He delivered a detailed and graphical report explaining his findings. 90 days later I went in for a follow-up endoscopy and Dr. Lee's level of professionalism and through procedures was just like the first time.

Endoscopy following ER visit
Dr. Lee did an emergency endoscopy when I had to go to the ER for internal bleeding. He was very professional, came and introduced himself and the procedure the night before and he and his team were great. The visit this review is for the 90 day follow-up after the initial procedure and all went like clock work and again, Dr. Lee came in after the procedure and answered several questions I had regarding my ER visit procedure and this one. Totally satisfied with Dr. Lee and his group.
