He was fantastically prepared, he had studied my medical record and knew about everything that's happened to me medically in the last several years.

In our first appointment I had a lot to tell her-- she listened intently, asked follow up questions, seemed to genuinely care about my gastrointestinal issues. She ordered some tests that I hadn't even known existed because no other doctor had ever bothered to do their due diligence. Dr. Robinson bothered to do her due diligence and it turned out there was a big issue!! I had a minor surgical procedure shortly after with her. She knew I was nervous, so she came to visit me while I was being prepped. She sat down and discussed the procedure with me, asked if I had any questions, and was patient and kind about how nervous I was. The procedure went well and she made a life changing diagnosis. She then made sure to attend to all my questions-- she made the time for me between appointments to discuss my results, answer questions, give me information. She really seems to care. Also, each time she's prescribed something to me, she's discussed the medication with me and given me ample information about the medication so that I could make an informed decision and have true informed consent. Dr. Robinson is willing to endure a lot of talking and questions from patients in order to provide peace of mind, education about your condition, and do her due diligence. Especially as a female patient it is so difficult to find a doctor of any gender who treats a female patient like this. I can't recommend her enough.

I went in for what was supposed to be a routine diagnostic colonoscopy. Twenty centimeters into the…read moreprocedure, my colon was perforated. After the procedure, I was told a "tear" had been found (either due to cancer, diviculitis, or hereditary conditions) and that I was being sent to the ER "to err on the side of caution." At the hospital, imaging confirmed a full perforation that occurred during the colonoscopy. (Moreover, if a tear had been pre-existing I would have known and had all symptoms associated with it, including possible sepsis.) The ER confirmed here were no underlying conditions such as cancer or diverticulitis that would have explained a spontaneous rupture. I was taken into high-risk emergency surgery and am still recovering more than six weeks later. Since then, I have had multiple ER visits due to complications and am facing the possibility of additional surgery. Complications can happen in medicine. What has been deeply troubling is the way the Dr. Robinson lied. The initial explanation did not match what was later documented and confirmed in the ER. As a patient, when something serious happens, honesty is essential. This experience has had significant physical, emotional, and ongoing medical consequences. I share this so others can make informed decisions on whether to undertake care under Dr. Robinson.

He's there, supervising, but others are actually doing the procedure.

He spend just enough time with during the first visit to explain everything, in simple terms, and answer any questions. On the day of the procedure, everything was done perfect. I don't remember the actual procedure as I fell asleep after the doctor told me that he was going to start administering the medicine. At these words I woke up, and I was all done! My wife picked me up, and I was completely up and running within hours. Fully recommend Dr. Lee, and will see him again in 10 years!

First, I would like to say that Dr. Lee is an excellent physician. He is patient, attentive, and…read morenever makes you feel rushed during appointments. He truly listens and takes the time to address concerns, which is greatly appreciated. Unfortunately, my experience with the front desk receptionist, LYNN, has been extremely disappointing. Interacting with her has been frustrating and discouraging. She comes across as very unprofessional and lacks the patience and compassion that are especially important in a medical office -- particularly when working with elderly patients or individuals who may struggle with technology, such as online portals or email communication. Instead of feeling supported, I often felt as though getting assistance or scheduling an appointment was an inconvenience to her. A medical practice should be welcoming and helpful from the very first point of contact, and that has not been my experience. It is frustrating and painful to deal with this woman. Dr. Lee provides wonderful care, but the front office experience does not reflect the same level of professionalism and compassion. I hope this feedback is taken seriously, as the right front desk staff can make a significant difference in patients' overall experience.

I would get here early for your appt for easy parking choices. This office is located in the Eden Medical Building. Close walking distance to Starbucks/Denica's for coffee, drinks and food if you are the one waiting. Got here on time but was delayed due to missing a front staff person. The procedure went fast and smoothly. Each person was like an assembly line once one was done, the next patient was taken care of. Once you get that shot through the IV, you're out in 10 mins. It took about an hour and half from when he got inside. You will be spoken to the doctor if there was a big issue to be said but he was able to leave with paperwork of what happens next. Friendly, funny and helpful staff. They are caring as well. I would recommend this place for a Colonoscopy procedure. [6R,2025]
