We moved to the area in 2017. My boys have weight concerns, so I was rather excited to read that Dr. Lee has special interests in childhood obesity. We were given outdated pamphlets and ended up having to track down a dietician on our own.
I've had mixed results making a sick appointment. Once (in 2018, I think), I was able to get my son in with no issue. In March (2020), I was told they couldn't fit him in and that if his throat was hurting too bad, to take him to urgent care.
Most recently, the CPNP requested additional testing before signing off on a sports physical for something that was not deemed concerning last year or the year before. We had no change in family history and he had a normal BP. I wasn't overly concerned and thought it was being requested out of an abundance of caution. The additional testing, however, has caused my son significant stress (he is a worrier) and now he has elevated BP.
The communication between the recommended specialist and the office could be described as shoddy, at best. My husband had to track down the specialist to find out he had a recommendation addendum that hadn't been submitted, wasting precious time and creating even more stress.
We have asked to speak with Dr. Lee and have been denied the request being told that my son is now under the care of the CPNP. We should have a choice in who provides his care. Because of that, and in conjunction with the fact that they are refusing to listen to our concerns, we are leaving the practice. I no longer recognize any of the staff and since we are refused to be seen by our preferred doctor, Dr. Lee, there really is no sense in remaining. read more
