Treats the nurses that takes care of his patients like absolute garbage. Would NEVER recommend him to anyone.

After several years of being followed by Dr Lee I am looking for a new physician. Following a procedure I was in excruciating pain and after several phone calls was unable to get a hold of his nurse . Finally my general practitioner was able to prescribe me with the correct medication for my diagnosis and discontinue the meds Dr. Lee prescribed. I month later and I am still rehabilitating from the procedure. If you can't get a hold of the doctor or nurse when there is a complication what good are they?

First appointment took almost a month just to talk to him. Next step was to have some testing done, they said his next available appointment would be in 2 months,Meanwhile I suffered. Turned out he was on vacation. All my test came back great, but still had and have the pain. He tried to give me some medication....that didn't do anything. Now I'm too the point where am in serious trouble, everything I eat causes me problems, like a form of autoimmune disease. Been calling for days, nurses just say he isn't here but we will get back to you when he gets back to us. This is the first gastro doctor I have ever been too, but based on my experience, LOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE!

Dr. Lee is a very caring Dr. who gives you the attention you need if you let him know you have questions. He can appear to be in a hurry but any time I have had questions he sat down and took time to explain everything I asked . I have recommended him to at least 5 friends and they all have loved him!
