We feel fortunate to have received reflections from our patients about how Dr. Arthur Lee has helped them. Here are some of our favorites:
“I’ve waited too long to thank you, but I was thinking of you while I was swimming freestyle this week, that I am able to swim pain-free thanks to you. I appreciate your care and professionalism in treating my shoulder.”
“Thank you so much for the great job you did on my knee. It’s so good to have two straight legs for the first time in my life. Now I can really get back to living and enjoying life. It feels great to be without pain also.”
“It’s very hard for me to remember why I put off having my knee surgery for so long. For over 7 years, I lived with the pain and frustration of arthritis in my left knee. I tried every option available before I finally decided to have the surgery. The thing that made me decide was being on vacation, on Siesta Key, and sitting on the deck watching everyone enjoy the beautiful sand and water. I realized that I wasn’t really the way I wanted to live. Three months ago I had the surgery and my life is so much better. Thanks to Dr. Lee and the wonderful physical therapists at Wellington, my next vacation will not be spent sitting and watching others have fun.”
"Quick note for Dr. Lee. I took a trip to Rocky Mountain National Park and took a hike on the Crater Trail up near the Continental Divide. We started at about 10,500 feet above sea level and walked a mile up through the subalpine forest across the alpine tundra to the lip of the crater (12,000 feet plus) where the view was magnificent including Bighorn sheep grazing. The climb ratio was about 1 foot up for every 4 or so feet walked. The hip replaced 5 months earlier did great and the knee from a couple years ago did fine too. Couldn’t have done this hike two years ago. Thanks.”
"I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my left hip and needed a total hip replacement. I wanted the first available appointment and was scheduled 2 weeks later. I am totally pain free! I really appreciated that all my meds (I) needed post-surgery were available for pickup prior to my surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Lee!
"Dr. Lee has cared for all my orthopedic issues for over 10 years. He and his whole team have made a difference with their skills, yes, but also with their empathy and trust as care providers who listen and adapt to changing needs as I get older. After two knee replacements and several hip injuries, I sincerely thank them and find security knowing they are always there for me."
"The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. Dr. Lee is very courteous and a good listener. I would never go to anyone else. He has replaced both of my knees, rebuilt my shoulder, and now we're working on my hip. He knows my body better than I do. Wouldn't go to anyone else."
"I have a lot of difficulty with my knees. I have been a patient of Dr. Lee's for over 20 years. He is a great listener and a very good surgeon. He goes to lengths to explain the situation and let you know what he can and what he can't do. He doesn't always recommend surgery. He will try other possibilities first. I've always trusted him, which is why I keep going back."
"Quick to get appointment and timely visit. (I) appreciate the attentive listening and clear explanations. (Dr. Lee) offered good treatment plans. Very kind demeanor. I highly recommend. He did my hip surgery 2 years ago and I have had such a great recovery and appreciate my improved quality of life."
"My visit went very well. I was happy about the care and treatment I received. Dr. Lee is one of the best orthopedic surgeons in the United States. I highly recommend him."
