Dr. Lee is a phenomenal doctor! After going to many podiatrists, he was the first who listened, quickly understood and resolved issues immediately. Took the necessary diagnostics, too, and offered future choices for care. Very personable and a great personality. Also, the staff was friendly, efficient and very helpful!
June 27, 2025Elaine S.Verified patient
I highly recommend Dr. Charles Lee. I had two in grown toe nails and he helped me so much. I was unsure what procedure to get and he did a great job explaining each one and making sure I understood. The office took me right away and I didn’t have to wait at all. It is a nice office and I had a very positive experience. My follow up appointment was also a great experience. I was really nervous to get my toes fixed, but thanks to him it was very easy and he made sure I was not nervous as he explained everything.

I am recommending Dr Charles to my friends. I felt informed and he was patient with all my questions. He demonstrated how my feet are overcompensating when doing certain movements, resulting in the issues I came to see him for. Dr Charles was friendly and warm, which is exactly what I needed.

April 21, 2025Markelle S.Verified patient
I had a great experience with Dr. Lee. I had an ingrown toenail and he made me feel very comfortable before removing it. He did a terrific job and it healed very quickly. I have had many ingrown toe nails before and this was by far the fastest healing process. I was in no pain after.
