Dr. Lee grew up in the East Bay and attended college in New York at Columbia University, where she studied biomedical engineering. She loved innovating novel technologies, but she was more drawn to the interactions with her patients. OB/GYN is a unique specialty where she could combine her engineering background with her passion for direct patient care.
Dr. Lee's clinic philosophy is that "we are a team”, and she is an adviser to you, so you can make the best choices for your life. In her clinic, she doesn’t just ask, "Is it manageable?" but, "Can we make it better?" and if so, "what are the costs and risks?" Imagine that - personal health where we don’t have to just manage our lives but can optimize them and feel confidently empowered to make those choices for ourselves. It can take time, patience and effort, but Dr. Lee finds it a privilege and pleasure to walk that journey with her patients.
Dr. Lee enjoys good food, the arts, and spending time with friends and family.
