January 13, 2026
I felt he carefully reviewed my records, and asked more detailed questions than usual, which I appreciated, and offered a change in medications that perhaps other doctors would not do, since the change is to address a minor non health-threatening issue, but one that will, I hope, make me feel better about my body and feelings about my health.

I have been experiencing some abnormal issues in recent days that caused me to call for help. It became clear Dr Lee had read my history as we talked. Dr Lee spoke to me about testing needed to find out the "whys" of my current situation. Left the doctor's office feeling better because Dr Lee handles his patients with respect and concern. By the way--the LPN was very kind to me. I was a bit rattled and she was very caring.
