Dr. Lee performed a very complicated shoulder surgery successfully. Would recommend him to others as not only does he have professional expertise and experience he listens to patient concerns and answers questions.

My appointment felt a little rushed and it didn't feel like there was a lot of concern for my ongoing issue.

He did not seem to care that I still have pain. He offered no explanation or possible solution other than its not a surgical issue. Did not offer any additional means to help with my pain other than adding physical therapy to what I have already been doing. I explained that I understand what the tests say, but I do not want to continue to take pills and that the pain has increased. He seemed to not care at all. He did what he wanted and left the room. The visit could have been a phone call rather than waste my time driving to the clinic since my pain was so easily dismissed.
