Overview of patient comments

Summary created using AI

Patients appreciate

Dr. Lee is consistently praised for his thoroughness, strong communication skills, and ability to explain diagnoses and treatment options in clear, easy-to-understand terms. Patients frequently highlight his excellent bedside manner, describing him as kind, compassionate, personable, and genuinely attentive to their concerns. Many reviewers note that he takes time to answer questions and never makes patients feel rushed. His clinical expertise — particularly in hand and wrist conditions, including surgeries for carpal tunnel, finger injuries, and tendon issues — is frequently commended, with multiple patients crediting him with restoring their quality of life and ability to work. His office staff also receives consistent praise for being friendly, professional, and responsive.

Patients also share

A small number of reviews identified areas for improvement. One reviewer felt that Dr. Lee did not show sufficient empathy or personal connection during their visit, leaving them feeling like he did not know who they were. One reviewer noted he seemed to be in a hurry and did not spend enough time with them. One long-term patient mentioned a 45-minute wait after being brought back to the exam room, though they noted this was not typical of their previous visits. One reviewer also suggested that Dr. Lee could slow down slightly when communicating, as they sometimes had difficulty recalling all their questions at his pace.
