I had a laproscopic hysterectomy w. dr lee at the end of January. Here
is what I found to be true of him....
He has an akward sense of humor that made me slightly uncomfortable.
He suspected adenomyosis in addition to endo which was cause for
hysterectomy
He failed to write me orders for pain meds after my surgery....I layed
crying in pain begging the nurses for help they paged him close to a
dozen times with no response. His excuse was that his pager accidently
got turned off by a nurse.
As for the surgery he did s great job, very little scars, recovery time
was very very quick. and 3 months later I feel like a new person. All
in all, it was a difficult road but I am glad I did it. He is very
skilled, just be sure that he has your post op pain meds worked out for
you before surgery!!!
