Patient Reviews
Jan 20, 2024
I was dx with colon cancer III back in 2017 so I was sent to see Dr. Lee @ keck usc as a 2nd. opinion and believe me when I tell you that the was the best thing my 'standard procedure' hospital did for me. Where do I even begin to praise this miraculous surgeon. The empathy he showed me and listened without rushing me and the level of confidence he had while explaining the entire procedure was just astounding. Dr. Lee is so skillful that I was able to avoid radiation, a colostomy bag and a 2nd surgery. My surgery went extremely well with no complications and I truly believe that I am still here because of my surgeon. All my nurses were like angels and amazing as well, his entire staff/team was just amazing. Thank you Dr. Lee!
