I could not be happier with my experience. I came in for a routine physical and the process was incredibly smooth. Dr. Lee is very knowledgeable and thorough, even with something as simple as a routine physical. I left feeling that no stone was left unturned and I will definitely be returning in the future.

Dr Lee is a graduate of the University of Washington School of Medicine and completed his residency at Valley Family Medicine in Renton, Washington. He is Board Certified in Family Medicine and joined the practice in 2014.
Dr Lee enjoys practicing preventive medicine, chronic disease management and sports medicine.
Philosophy of care: "I believe the physician's role is to be a guide and advocate for his patients to achieve their optimum health. The physician-patient relationship is an equal partnership. Medicine is not a 'one size fits all' situation. My hope is to help each patient achieve their individual health goals. The greatest satisfaction of Family Medicine is having the opportunity to develop lifelong relationships with patients."
Dr Lee grew up in a suburb of Seattle and feels fortunate to call the beautiful Northwest his home. Outside of medicine, Dr. Lee enjoys spending time with his lovely wife and watching their young daughter grow. They like to take advantage of the bountiful outdoor activities that the Northwest provides. He also enjoys playing the piano and guitar as well as going golfing.

he was awesome. He was the second doctor I had seen in as many weeks. He immediately answered my questions and being a high powered athlete, he understood that too. His assistant, Kiersten, was awesome, too. Great attitude and bedside manners...Highly Recommend.
December 13, 2016Lorenzo H.Verified patient
My visit with Dr. Lee was great! I only waited about 10 minutes in the lobby. Once in my appointment room, Dr Lee saw me within a few minutes. Dr Lee was a great listener! And I would recommend him to anyone looking for a new physician! Thank you Dr Lee!

November 6, 2016Henry C.Verified patient
Having just moved here from Texas, we are all in search for the right doctor. I had already taken my younger son to see a pediatrician but I will now be making the switch for all of us to Dr. Lee. He was well mannered, thorough, listened carefully while helping me understand what was wrong. I appreciated his kind attitude and patience with my 2.5 year old while I was trying to listen to him and monitor my son. It's great to find a new doctor we can all feel comfortable with.
June 14, 2016Tiffani H.Verified patient

Dr. Lee is a comprehensive and caring practitioner, he has shown genuine concern for my health issues regardless of the ailment, and never made me jump through hoops to get receive the care I required.
March 15, 2016Cammi R.Verified patient
Amazing... first of all I was like 30 minutes late and they were still able to see me on time.. actually they were waiting for me.. then when I described my symptoms to the doctor he talked to me as though he wanted to help and gave me some really great options.. it's hard to find a doc that will not only listen to you but not make you feel like your crazy or stupid ... I RARELY go to the doctors but I will go more frequently to see DR Lee... thank you

Dr. James Lee seems to be very competent (insofar as I can assess this without a medical degree), and he is certainly caring and concerned with improving the lives of his patients. I would highly recommend him as a primary care physician.
December 21, 2015Joshua C.Verified patient
He was super approachable, did not feel rushed at all with him. Extremely understanding and not dismissive at all. Can totally tell he got into this field for all the right reasons.
Would 100% recommend him to everyone I know. Now I can say I look forward to going to the doctor's :)

July 13, 2015Devi P.Verified patient
We liked that the clinic wasn't crowded - by the time we had finished the paperwork as new patients they were ready for us. They were also accommodating for us having a baby and other requests. In general, the experience felt more 1:1.
Dr. Lee was great. We were in for our annual exam. He was generous with his time, discussed our expectations, answered all of our questions and provided many other recommendations. The clinic followed up after the blood work, I also found the patient portal useful.
