Verified patient
Mostly for kids visit, Thorough and cal, careful, pain examination, comfortable plan. Very good experience and interaction with kid.
Good second opinion visit. Clarified a lot and identify the problem, gave options including surgery, not a pushy sales type of visit but also an overly conservative visit. Good precise, informative doctor.
I am active and he worked with me to regain activity. Some of the generic take it easy stuff and a real return to work out plan. Great doc.
Ongoing ankle pain from an old sprain causing other pain, he made the connection and effectively helped with the pain visit is focused and no BS.
Visit is not rushed and felt personal. Doc took his time, new diagnosis and clear plan is given. Worked like very well. Will be my podiatrist from now on.
I saw Dr Lee for a surgical consult and he provided a whole plan to treat the pain, still may need surgery later. But at least this second opinion is willing to work with me rather than just push for surgery. Would recommend.
I am a runner and Dr lee helped me with my performance he made recommendations to physical therapy and orthodontics that helped me.
I came in for general foot care and a painful spot. Dr lee took care of it for me, clean, precise, and unrushed. Highly recommend.
I first saw Dr. Lee for ankle pain at a different location and remembered how thorough he was, so I came when I had an infected ingrown toenail needing urgent appointment. I was honestly nervous about the procedure, but he made it much easier than I expected. He explained what was causing the pain, what he recommended, and what to expect during and after treatment. The procedure was quick, precise, and a lot less painful than I had built it up in my head. He checked in with me during the visit and made sure I was comfortable. I also appreciated the direct-care feel of the appointment. It felt personal, calm, and focused, not rushed. The payment and superbill process process was also clear though I used HSA for the visit. After seeing Dr. Lee for both ankle pain and an ingrown toenail, I feel very comfortable trusting him with foot and ankle care. He is calm, careful, thorough, and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend.
Sean Lee was relaxing and informative.
Informative.
OK.
Quick appointment that got to the root of the problem. I came out with x rays, a referral to physical therapy, and a referral for custom insoles molded to my feet. I recommend for quick and friendly service.
Verified patient
Dr. Lee was great and did not beat around the bush when it came to treatment options. I had a surgery done here same day to get glass out of my foot and he did it masterfully.
Verified patient
Very professional and friendly. Dr. Lee explained everything very clearly and was not in a hurry. He explained the type of surgery I would have and told me to think about it before I did it. He explained the recovery time.
Verified patient
Seriously one of the best experiences I have had with a specialist. Took so much time to explain my options, fantastic at listening to my concerns and respected all my decisions regarding the direction of my treatment. So grateful to find a Dr like him!
