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.

Dr.Lee did a excellent job explaining about the test I needed. When results were done, explained them and what I needed for follow up.

Thoroughly enjoy having Dr. Phil Lee as my doctor. He spends all of the time necessary to answer questions and research what could be options for me. Problem is my hearing is just getting worse and there may not be any corrections to it. He has moved me to work with Dr. Dan Lee for my hearing and Dr. Phil Lee is still handling my cpap treatment.

Dr. Lee is a exceptional doctor. He's kind, funny, takes his time, and you feel comfortably right away. Staff is excellent also. His nurse to the receptionists to the ladies who make your next appointments. All kind and caring people. Best thing is you never have to wait long. They ask you to check your history and before you are done they are calling back to see Dr. Lee. Great place all around.

I had not been to Mercy before so I was very pleased with how they responded to my needs. I had been in a car accident the previous weekend & needed to be seen by an ENT. Dr. Lee happened to be in Albert Lea that day, and I was able to see him that morning. My treatment is ongoing - but I have been so happy with how they have worked with me and the insurance issues.
