Dr. Lee is very competent and professional. I recommend him highly.
Good experience, good employees.
Dr. Lee is a very pleasant physician. But the reason he got a 4 star rating was because he was skeptical of the visual description I was telling him about my faltering eyesight in one of my eyes. He displayed skepticism with my description.
He was nice but made me confused about my surgery and so I made an appointment with different Dr at your office. The nurses were being rude and made a mistake in regards to my appointment. Because I changed to earlier they made my time to see the Dr delayed and I had to ask about it like 7 to
