Verified patient
My experience is that of hope and optimism that my problems will be solved, I will get well. Dr. Lee calmly listened to me and my complaints, asked me questions, went over my test results both 2020 and 2022, explained the results and the comparisons, examined me, then started treatments- different techniques. I actually spoke to ALLSTATE Insurance adjuster and manager, and two of my friends about Dr. Lee. I hope to continue to receive the sam treatment and that I get healed ultimately.
