      I was very impressed with the amount of care showed for every thing I have been dealing with over the years with my back. Dr. Lee Is very easy to talk to. I was listened to, questions answered and he asked questions. The server was down and the doctor could not view my MRI performed in Bakersfield. He said he would keep checking and give me a call when the server was back up so we could further discuss via phone the surgery needed to correct my spinal condition. It is a rare thing for a physician to call a patient. I can tell he really cares about his patients. Even though Dr. Lee has been dismissed from AH, I will continue to see him and have him perform my spinal surgery because I know he cares about his patients and came highly recommended. It saddens me that Dr. Lee will no longer be part of AH. Dr. Lee represents the AH ministry with his care, kindness and experience in his field of practice.

      I think Dr. Lee excels in his explanations. I found the first visit more helpful than the follow-up as there was some inconsistency in a few of his remarks about the cause of my injury, but overall I think he does a good job of addressing questions and providing information

      I had recommended Dr Lee to friends because he is a wonderful and very knowledgeable physician. He operated my back 2 1/2 months ago during 8 plus hours, and now I am walking without my cane and with little pain.

      Mostly I saw Dr.Lee on this appointment;He was a patient listener and very apathetic.He showed me the problems with my cervical spine using the MRI, which was great.(visuals help). Dr. Lee explained both surgical options for me and we both agreed on which one was best. He also prepared me for what to expect which I really appreciated. Some doctors don't do that very much.
