Concerned and efficient
Very thorough and focused on solutions. Very educational on the subject and friendly ad well.
She continuously blew off all my concerns and was literally trying to run out the door when it came time for me to ask questions at the end of the appt. She just kept telling me “OT will work on that” and that she would document my concerns in my daughter’s chart….
Dr. Lee was very attentive and asking questions. She answered all questions we had and concerns.
Extremely kind, understanding, and knowledgeable. Dr Lee is amazing. I left so well informed. She also made my grandson feel very comfortable
We love Dr. Lee. She is personable, addresses all concerns if you have any, listens to you and your child and makes you feel comfortable.
