Dr Lee saved my life 12 years a ago. I had esophageal cancer, he removed my stomach and part of my esophagus, At that time he was practicing in New Jersey.
I now have a different cancer, he will remove these in Cornell. I totally trust him with my life, as far as I’m concerned he is a genius.
He explains everything in full so that you can understand him, he has a great bedside manner. I can’t say enough about this doctor.

Dr Lee and his staff set the bar for professionalism, knowledge, flexibility and the desire to treat their patients as they would treat their own family members.

From the initial appointment through the outpatient procedure following the thoracic surgery, post surgery care, including the hospital staying and discharge, to the recent office visit there was nothing less than the highest level of professionalism, sincere friendliness and the warmest humanitarian touch.

Although Dr. Lee is proficient in the narrow scope of lung tumor removal, my experience with him as my mother's surgeon shows that he is ill-prepared to orchestrate the associated needs of his patients during their post-op hospital stay. As a lung cancer specialist, with patients actively addicted to cigarettes and alcohol, Dr. Lee is surprisingly uninformed and uncomfortable regarding the psychosocial aspects of addiction and how lung cancer is part of a larger, more complex issue.
