Dr Lee came highly recommended and I would also highly recommend him.

I am totally satisfied with the experience I had with Dr. Lee and his associates. I had been scheduled for a large, very invasive surgery with another surgeon. Thanks to Dr. Lee I didn't need the surgery and was able to recover through physical therapy. He answered all questions and was very pleasant to speak with as were the rest of the staff. I would definitely recommend him to anyone dealing with spinal problems.

I received excellent care. Thank you.

Our visit turned out to entirely by phone; that is whyI haven't answered the virtual visit questions. Everything went well. Dr. Lee was very helpful. I've read the visit summary and that is accurate and helpful also.

Dr. Mike Lee was very thorough in explaining the recommended procedure, and gave me plenty of time to ask questions. I appreciated his straightforward demeanor.

This was the first visit I had with Dr. Max Lee.I have an over 20 year problem and have been to various doctors, physical therapist, etc. Over the years with no success.I am so very glad that someone recommended Dr. Lee to me. Hopefully going forward, we will be able to find a solution.

Dr. Lee is kind and caring. My surgery was very serious. He did an amazing job. I feel so much better.
