Dr. Lee had my confidence from the time I met him, months before my surgery. I knew I was in capable hands and that the eventual recovery would be up to me and how hard I am willing to work in PT. Dr. Lee has been open and honest, preparing me for the surgery. He readily answered any questions I had. Can't ask for more. I am grateful for his vast knowledge, experience, and ability.

Dr Lee and Dr [last name] were kind courteous and professional. The level of care they provided was extraordinary. They addressed my concerns to my complete satisfaction and fully informed me of the process. Dr Lee was fully informed of my medical history having had a replacement Hip at HSS in 2015. It was a pleasure speaking with him. and learning about the process ahead of me. Dr [last name] was kind and caring in administering the injection in my knee and her attention to both the details and me the patient was exceptional. Priya spent time with me as well setting up the appointment and explaining the steps along the way. They were all superior and clearly demonstrate why HSS is the best in the USA.
