Daniel always gives quick, courteous service. I'm happy I was referred to him by my surgeon.
Patient, responsive and kind.
Dr Lee is such a knowledgeable and kind medical professional.
Very nice doctor. Love him♥️
He explained things about my eyes more thoroughly and detailed than any other previous eye doctor. Eye Health Northwest saved the vision in one eye when I had an eye hemorrhage and needed immediate evaluation on a Saturday. They got me an appointment and then an evaluation by one of their surgeons. Their treatment helped the eye and the surgeon for the laser surgery evaluation decided that I didn’t need surgery. Their quick and expert help saved my eye and I am eternally grateful to this clinic. Their honesty is remarkable. I will be sticking with this doctor and clinic for life. If they suddenly become out of network with my insurance I will be asking them what insurance they take in order to keep them for life as my eye care doctors.
Dr schedule was way behind - that’s the only reason I didn’t give 5 stars. I arrived on time but waited about 40 minutes.
He explains things well, takes his time with you, makes you feel at ease.
Dr Lee is the best!
Dr Lee is thorough, listens carefully to my issues, and delivers excellent card.
Listens and answers questions well. Is warm and engaging.
