My left knee has been bothering me for some time now and my doctor referred me to Dr. John Lee for a consultation. I was a bit skeptical at first because this is a new office and the doctor looked straight up like one from a Korean drama but boy was I blown away by Dr. Lee’s knowledge and experience in dealing with chronic pain! After some discussion, we both agreed on a more conservative approach to treatment involving the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). I thought it is pretty crazy my own blood would cure my ailments but I was shocked a day after my procedure I actually felt a lot better! It’s been a few weeks now and ALL MY PAIN IS GONE.
Went to a few pain clinics for my neck due to a basketball injury. This was the only place that actually helped me with my pain right away. Spoke to John and David Lee and both were very easy to talk to and attentive with my care, nothing felt rushed like other places.
Dr. Lee is a lifesaver! I sustained 3 herniated disc's about 18 years ago from an auto accident where I was rear-ended by a drunk driver. Since that time, my pain level began to increase to an 8 or 9 (out of 10) on a daily basis. Living with pain is no joke and affected me physically and mentally. I tried physical therapy, over the counter meds, and holistic approaches that provided minimal relief for brief periods of time. After visiting 3 different doctors, all recommended surgery. A family member found Dr. Lee and in my first visit, he suggested epidural shots to help relieve my pain. He was thorough in his explanations, allowed me to watch the procedure, and educated me throughout the whole process. After my first shot, I felt a level 10 pain for about 3 days, and then it was gone! I was/have been pain free for over 6 months. I can exercise, concentrate, sleep, and feel happy again! He has helped me so much and I appreciate that we found an alternative that has been lifesaving compared to having invasive surgery. Thank you Dr. Lee. No words can capture the relief that you have provided me with!!
I had one treatment with Dr. Lee and it was absolutely amazing. My knee feels so much better, but what amazes me the most is that they not trying to do more treatments and get more money out of you. They are Honest and very professional they care for the patients not their wallets. Thank you Dr. Lee
