About Joseph Lee, MD

I became a physician because I wanted to help people live their best lives in good health. Medicine is a team effort between patients and providers to better understand a patient's health and realistically identify steps for improvement. I believe preventive health care goes a long way, and lifestyle changes are preferred over medications when possible. When I’m not working, I enjoy reading novels and watching movies.

I had excellent care via a tele health appointment with Dr Lee. The genuine care was more then evident as he listened ,did not rush the appointment , asked questions as he also gave his medical and professional assessments, opinions and expertise. He did not hesitate to refer me to endocrinology as K am currently coking out of an adrenal crisis. His appointment brought me hope I have found someone locally that finally care enough to take me on as his patient while having a team effort with aSpecialist as well . I felt hope in an otherwise very dire situation which has played a significant role in feeling better the following days as well . This appointment was efficient and In many ways much better then other doctors appointment I have had at sharp recently with doctors who want to rush your care or lack thereof . I would refer Dr Lee to family and fiends with confidence they wil be cared for well
