Han Lee, MD

I had an appointment with Dr. Lee, but didn’t even get to see her due to a woman that worked up front. I called lost, having been new to the area at the time, and she was immediately rude and ended up hanging up on me without any directions. Basically she kept saying, «It’s not that difficult! We’re on Fair Oaks!» Well, it was difficult since I had been given the wrong address come to find out. Also it was difficult for someone with rheumatoid arthritis to fill out ten pages of paperwork already being late. I went to the desk and asked if there was a chance I should get some help or should I just leave because it was going to take me a very long time. This same woman said with attitude condescension, «Well, I imagine she wants to leave work at some point today. So yeah, you could leave.»
Nothing against the doctor because I hear she’s great, but having an in compassionate staff to the disabled or just the new to the area doesn’t speak highly of the office in general. I’d suggest they have some sensitivity training and realize it’s not our fault if they are having a bad day or life.

Like the other reviews suggest, Dr. Lee treats your visit as a business.
I called prior to visiting to have an idea of how much I should expect to pay. When I finished my visit, she said I went over the allotted time by 10 minutes and charged me an extra $ 75! I didn’t even know there was an allotted time and was never told so! Such crooks!
Go somewhere else. She does not come off as friendly and her replies to your questions are very short. I felt mugged after the visit.

Dr Lee– first has high integrity, well studied, and great skills/​empathetic, great communication, and a real human– as contrasted to the 3 Trillion Dollar medical
business in USA!
Cancer of any type is like Ambulance Chasing PI Lawyers or bottom feeders!
Enter a few as Dr Lee– the exception to these scam artists!
I had a basil cell skin on my face. Dr Lee, removed it using MOH– techniques!
There are a couple MOH doctor’s in Pasadena!.. HONG is another, I hear a great re-​constructive plastic doctor, and does MOH… My opinion is-​he is about money, as I have seen him before, for a blepho eye lid lift/​in whihc he tried to sell me on a multi $$$ thousand dollar surgery– above Medicare approved coverage.
If one has skin cancers, MOH technique is the correct procedure for removal.

Dr. Lee is an excellent dermatologist. She is extremely knowledgable and very friendly. Both my mother and I see her for mole-​related issues and we are always impressed by her work and expertise. The clinic is super clean and the entire office staff is friendly and efficient. I have also seen the aesthetician here and she is very nice as well.

Absolutely the best dermatologist! Had a surgery to remove a sebaceous cyst in my scalp, and she made it easy! Great personality, care and information! My only complaint is it took a long time to see her — scheduling with the office.

Listens well and great bedside manner! Best dermatologist that I know. Very professional and knowledgable.
I refer all my patients to her. I am oncologist.

Dr. Lee does not take the time to explain things to you — she’s in and out and just doesn’t make you feel at ease. She is not warm and she will make you wait as she is juggling all her patients because her office tends to overbook. Do not recommend at all.

It has taken me a while to find such a competent Dermatologist like Dr. Lee. She listens, does a complete and thorough exam, and so far, all the treatments (biopsy’s) have been painless.
I recommend her highly!

professional, honest, and friendly…
but not patient

I am writing this review because I was looking for Dr. Lee’s number to refer her to a friend. I was very surprised to see a negative review which is so far removed from my experience with her and her staff and I feel compelled to comment.
While I can understand being annoyed at having to wait, the office is very new, and perhaps the staff were new at the time as well. Dr. Lee has been punctual in my experience and her staff have been very friendly and accommodating.
I think it is fair to say that the reviewer’s experience was an exception, at least given my and other reviewers experiences with Dr. Lee.
I have found Dr. Lee to be very personable and approachable, yet she obviously has a vast knowledge of dermatology and is highly skilled. She explains everything and unlike some doctors, she is sensitive to your personal preferences and respects them. For example, I had some concerns about local anesthetics, so Dr. Lee simply said she could use a saline injection if I preferred. She was very matter of fact about it and didn’t make me feel like it was an unreasonable request, even though in some ways it certainly isn’t going to be a common request.
I really like her and recommend her. She is a great combination of high competence, intelligence and great bedside manner.

I have been seeing Dr. Lee for years. We have a family history of melanomas, so I always make annual visits. She’s thorough and proactive, and will explain her reasoning for any suggested procedure. She’s also got a great bedside manner. (I should know… I’ve had her remove 4 moles and a cyst.)

Dr. Lee made my visit very comfortable. She is very knowledgeable and provided me with all the information I needed to know about laser hair removal. I wasn’t too sure about my threshold of pain so she provided me with some numbing cream on my legs before proceeding. It worked like a charm! I barely felt anything. =) She is really easy to get along with and very down to earth.
The office is very spacious and doesn’t make you feel all tense like most doctors’ offices seem to do. The staff is all very friendly and professional.
The only downside I can think of is not being able to tan during the summer until my laser sessions are done. Totally worth the wait though! =D
