After 51 years of almost constant pain, a few trips to see Dr Lee, and taking his recommendation (YES it was invasive) I have had the best year since 1966, almost pain free. If I do have pain I've done it to myself overdoing. Its exciting to LIVE again. My Boston Scientific Spinal Simulator has saved my life. If you have doubt ask for my number I am always telling everyone who mentions pain, about my experience. May 8, 2019 I will be one year POST-OP PAIN FREE. Everyday I thank God for this man.

I feel Dr. Lee is a wonderful doctor and a very caring person. He truely cares about his patients and always does a wonderful job on making me feel better with the Epidurals he gives me in my back. He is a wonderful choice for a pain doctor you will love him.
