Dr. Augustine Junseog Lee, MD

Dr. Lee is a great surgeon. Not only that but he’s kind, patient and caring. With any problems after surgery he doesn’t make you feel like a bother and is very understanding! Thank you!!

Dr Lee without doubt is a great Surgeon. He is kind, compassionate, professional and treats you with the utmost care and respect. His office staff are absolutely wonderful. I am so very grateful for his expert skills and above board bedside manner. He truly cares for his patients and shows the utmost respect in a very difficult time in your life. In my opinion it would be difficult to find anyone that could hold a candle to Dr Lee and his staff. So grateful I was Blessed to be his patient.

Dr. Lee was very nice. His office management isn't. My insurance company documents all calls from providers. Office manager, Donna, claimed she called the insurance company. I was already charged $41 for the first pre-op visit. Donna, then told me an additional $50 copay was due prior to the surgery citing that the insurance company stated that would be my responsibility. There isn't even a fee of $50 listed on the cost schedule. The insurance company said she never called. They also added, that since I had already met my individual and family deductible requirements, she would have been told no copay was due. Donna stated that if I wanted the money refunded, I would be taken off the schedule for surgery. I obliged and cancelled all services with Dr. Lee and the surgical center. Donna did refund my money. It's a shame that a moment of Donna's laziness and then rudeness, thereafter; led to thousands of dollars lost for the surgeon and facility.

I went to Dr. Lee as a referral for a Inguinal Hernia. What I appreciate is he was very thorough in his exam and explained things very well. He gave me options and had good beside manners. His staff can be a little short and staff communication could be better, is the reason for four stars.

I’d been sick for a couple of months and was told I needed surgery. I was terrified. I met Dr Lee, who was referrrd to me. Dr Lee explained my condition so well, in layman’s terms, so that I understood more about my condition. He performed the surgery, after I did more research to determine if he was the surgeon who should do it. I’m fortunate to know several physicians and executives in the medical field who gave me their unbiased opinion. I received high marks in his abilities and outcomes. I’m very happy that Dr Lee performed the surgery. The post op meetings and appointments were fantastic. His office staff was helpful and informed. Whatever he said would happen, did. I’m healed and in much better shape than I was before surgery.

Dr.Lee is really good at what he does and he is very intelligent. I would recommend him to anyone in my family and my friends. He is informative before the surgery and he talks to you like a normal person. I could not ask for anything to have gone any better!

Dr Lee performed my ileostomy surgery and 2 yrs later I had a hernia and blockage he took care of. From the 1st time I met him until 3 yrs later he had always been kind and passionate not just to me but to my sons, he saved my life twice! He is an excellent dr who did an amazing job! Thank you Dr Lee!

I was diagnosed with colon cancer. Both Dr. Lee and his nurse Barbara were excellent. I would not go anywhere but his office. He also repaired my husband's hernia as well and treated him with respect and compassion.

Worst office staff ever. Dont return phone calls, rude. I have surgery scheduled in less than a week. I cant get his office staff to give me a time to be at the hospital. If the surgery wasn't somewhat urgent I would cancel and find another doctor.

Office staff are rude and Lee is arrogant, hard to understand.

Dr .Lee circumvented N Hills Hosp. discharge planner and wanted to discharge my 85 yo father into an unsafe and unsanitary environment. Lee has one particular office staff member with extremely poor and questionable boundaries. Found a "business card" of Lee's office and one of his staff gave my dad her daughters cell number. Keep looking around for surgeon options.

Staff does not give messages tio doc, or he don't respond to them.

Staff all kind and friendly. It's about 2 years since I saw him last,going back next week for my yearly check up.bed side manor,when I was in the hospital,was wonderful

Highly Recommend.. He has one of the best bed side manners & the most detailed MD!

I have seen Dr. Lee several times I am about to go through my third surgery with him he is a very polite concerned doctor I feel totally comfortable with with him. He does have a receptionist that's a little rude sometimes but since she didn't do my surgery I think I did alright. I just hope the third surgery goes is well as the first two.

Great office.... Very helpful...

I love Dr. Lee. Great bedside manner, very thorough, great surgeon. A very nice person, but his surgery scheduler needs a better attitude. She is rude, very non-caring, and lacks social and office skills needed for her to be the face of his office. I just had surgery with Dr. Lee and I need another procedure, but sadly I will be changing doctors because of having to deal with her on each visit.

I would highly recommend Dr. Lee to any of my relatives, and family. Very professional in all aspects, and at the same time a very nice person to talk to and deal with, Clearly explained the surgery, and all possible side effects, of which I had none. surgery went so smooth, I didn't even have to fill the prescription for pain pills following surgery. Cut and trimmed my lawns the day after surgery with no problems at all, although I do not recommend this for everyone.

After undergoing an unsuccessful pilonidal cyst excision, Dr. Lee diagnosed my reoccurrence and scheduled surgery immediately. He and Lupe, his assistant, were always kind and great about explaining things. Pilonidal cysts can be a common problem, but Dr. Lee made me feel like an important part of his day. I am so grateful that he gave me my life back.

Dr Lee was the only doctor that took time to listen about my concerns. I had been sick for weeks while working with another physician. He urged an updated CT scan which confirmed what he suspected. Within hours he performed what I call a "life saving" operation.
