What patients say

Vibe: professional

This practice shows sharp polarization between positive and deeply negative experiences. While Dr. Lee receives consistent praise for competence and professionalism, the practice is marred by serious issues: aggressive overtreatment recommendations contradicted by second opinions, repeated scheduling/overbooking failures, failure to deliver paid-for services (sedation/surgeon), poor communication/callback systems, and high-pressure sales tactics. Multiple 1-star reviews cite billing deception and the practice's unreliability, creating significant trust concerns despite some patients reporting good clinical outcomes.
