Dr Lee is amazing.
Providence Patient
Dr. Lee is very good at listening to what I have to say and if I have a problem he always checks it out. I have rheumatoid arthritis, which is an ongoing problem. Dr. Lee is very attentive to my needs and is very good in treating my condition and willing to try new treatments.
Providence Patient
Dr. Li is a fantastic provider! I always feel heard and I feel he has my best interest at heart. I fee so fortunate to have found him (recommended by another of his patients randomly at a hair salon, what luck!) and his specialty. We've been working together for a while and when I had an R.A. Flare up he was able to get me a prescription to calm things down and that meant the world to me. Having a chronic illness is not fun, but Dr. Li has a great sense of humor and he makes me feel that together we can navigate the storms of auto-immune disease. Thanks for always caring Dr. Li, you make this world a better place.

Providence Patient
Acknowledges what is understood and latest evidence based findings
Providence Patient
I was with my previous rheumatologist for about 20 years, and he retired from seeing patients, which has worked out really well for me. I have seen Dr. Lee for only two appointments, and so far he has spent more time with me, listened to my concerns, offered advice and options for my care, without making me feel rushed, than I've had in the last number of years. I am so thankful to now have him treating my rheumatoid arthritis, and had I known about him before, I would've switched to him a long time ago. Also, I have brought my niece with me to both appointments and he has made her feel completely welcome and recognized, as well. Aside from that, he's quite funny, which I really appreciate!

Dr. Lee is the best Rheumatologist I've ever had. He has abundant knowledge of my niche condition, which many other rheumatologists would group into less appropriate categories.

He has helped make managing my chronic condition a much less stressful process.
