I have vast amounts of experience with spine surgeons, unfortunately, as I have many serious spine problems. Dr. Lee is thee most uncaring, cold, hand-on-the-door-to-leave surgeon I have EVER met with. He did not smile when he met me, he did not ask how I am doing, he did not discuss my medical record except to look at a 3 year old out of date MRI and determine from that what he felt I needed. Dr. Lee gave me the impression that it was MY fault that my back is all screwed up, despite the undisputed and clear fact that I had a terrible accident at work and was hurt very badly. I was appalled. My life has become a living hell, and I get a condescending attitude from a medical doctor? This man is HORRIBLE. He has no soul. Look, I expect surgeons to have ego and great confidence in what they do. They can be snotty. They can have a God-complex. But Dr. Lee was far more than that — he was just plain MEAN. Uncaring, dismissive, not willing to go into detail about my very serious issues, on and on. What a colossal waste of my time. What an upsetting experience. If you are considering seeing Dr. Steven S. Lee at Muir Orthopedics, I recommend running away like you are on fire. Literally the worst medical professional I have ever seen in my life.

Steven Lee is the kind of doctor I like … focused, straight forward, extremely talented with great medical credentials, listens carefully to your concerns … and provides you with solutions… and options regarding those solutions. He seems to have a profound understanding of how painful and limiting back and neck(spinal) problems can be and how to address each differing situation. He doesn’t spend time chatting you up, he’s in it for the«fix» and surgery is spoken of as his last resort.(With my particular neck stenosis condition it’s physical therapy … then epidural injection … then if necessary, laprascopic surgery.) Steve took the time to review my x-rays and MRI with me, pointing out the problem area and explaining options we had to «get me up and running» again.
