" He made me feel comfortable from the very first day. I'm so glad I chose this office to help me. "

“Dr. Lee is a fantastic doctor and surgeon. I had a more difficult, non-routine wisdom tooth extracted today and he did a beautiful job. He explained all my surgical options before this point- went over the x-rays and CT scan, and made sure I had all the information necessary to make the best decision.

He made me feel comfortable from the very first day. I'm so glad I chose this office to help me. I highly recommend Dr. Lee and his staff.”
