Testimonials from patients of Dr. Lee

Dr. Lee
from Christy in CA February 13, 2024 for Richard D. Lee, MD

My husband and I both see Dr. Lee. He is widely informed in new trends in health which complements a solid grounding of long experience in the field. He’s charismatic and caring and very funny. Add on to that perspicacious and sharp in intellect and not sure what more you could ask for in a doctor. Oh, thorough! Yep, he’s that too.

Dr. Richard D. Lee, a blessing!
from Cheryl in CA January 18, 2024 for Richard D. Lee, MD

Daily I am enormously grateful to have Dr. Richard D. Lee managing my healthcare. Dr. Lee's keen knowledge, confidence, responsiveness and nonpareil inspiration have greatly improved my health and vitality, both physical and emotional.

Three cheers to the caring and brilliant Dr. Lee
from Arlene in CA March 17, 2020 for Richard D. Lee, MD

Several years ago I was confined to a boot to heel a stress fracture in my foot. I was also told to stay off my foot as much as possible – not easy for someone who is constantly on the move. After a few months in the boot, I started to experience horrendous groin pain, which persisted for several months after my foot healed.

First, I saw Dr. Lee who diagnosed the groin pain as a result… See more

Can-do Brilliant Doc
from Janel in CA March 11, 2020 for Richard D. Lee, MD

Doctor Richard Lee first fixed “a bolder” he called it of wax in my ear, sparing me an unnecessary MRI. No other doctor I have met knows genetics and nutrition like Dr. Lee. I am so lucky to have him as my PCP.

About Dr. Lee
from Payman in CA March 2, 2020 for Richard D. Lee, MD

I think it is more than 10 years now that Dr. Lee has been my doctor. He is very caring and he is very Knowledgeable. If you are lucky you can find a doctor who is caring. If you are luckier you can find a doctor who is knowledgeable. If you are very lucky you can find a doctor who is both caring and knowledgeable like Dr. Lee. Thank you doctor Lee for being the person that you are!

Dr. Lee is Awesome!
from Payman in CA March 17, 2018 for Richard D. Lee, MD

Dr. Lee is Awesome! It is great that I have had a chance to have him as my doctor for 6 years now. I live in Fremont California and with traffic that has gotten progressively worse during the years it takes me usually around an hour to get to Palo Alto but I would gladly drive much longer than that to see a great doctor like him. I hope he and his family always stay healthy and he can help… See more

Many Thanks Dr. Lee, have a great day!
from David in CA March 1, 2018 for Richard D. Lee, MD
