Just completed my first exam with Dr. Lee and his team and was extremely pleased. Shout out to my Hygienist, Kelsey who did a great job and was professional and extremely informative. I am very happy to have found them and to be a patient. Highly recommend this dental care team!!
Excellent care!! I was thrilled with Kakani's thorough exam and Dr. Lee was patient and thorough. I had a bad experience at another dental office and this group, including Sam, their receptionist and Brenda could not have been more thorough. They deserve a 10 star rating.
This was my first time visit and everything was great. The Hygienist was very professional and friendly. I was surprised that the Dr himself came and helped with the initial evaluation. I would definitely recommend Dr Lee to anyone looking for a dentist.
