Dr. Augustine J Lee

Dr Lee is the best doctor I’ve ever had. He’s honest. Tells it like it is. If he says it’s going to be a very painful surgery, he’s not lying. But he does everything he can to try to make you comfortable. I had diverticulitis in my colon. He had to take out approximately 16” to get to good blood flow so it would heal well. Before the surgery I had been hospitalized twice because of it. After he did my colon resection in 2012 I’ve never had another problem. A few years after my surgery my brother was diagnosed with rectal cancer. I referred him to Dr. Lee for the surgery. He also loved Dr. Lee and to this day is still doing well. I moved out of Texas to Oklahoma in Aug. of 2019, but if I ever need this type of surgery again you can bet I’ll be driving back down to Texas for Dr. Lee to do the surgery. Thank you Dr. Lee for removing my diverticulitis and giving me my quality of life back.

The guy bailed on his patients. Just 'closed' his office w/ 30 days notice, left one person to field calls. Oh, and my wife's hernia repair is failing after just 31 months and he has just bailed. BEWARE OF AUGUSTINE LEE

He is so great!!! The best Doctor and Surgeon!!

Dr. Lee was a great find! A co-worker highly recommended Dr. Lee and I couldn’t be more grateful. I feel sorry for him in the sense that many of us go and see him after our initial doctors messed something up or misdiagnosed us....if I would have initially known about him I would have saved a whole lot of time and pain. Dr Lee is very thorough and incredible at explaining things in terms and analogies that I can understand. I highly recommend Dr Lee!! Dr. Lee was a great find!

I want to give Dr. Lee and his staff all the stars because they truly are amazing. I am currently dealing with a fistula and I had surgery on 1/20 and Dr. Lee has been so kind, explained everything to me and did the surgery with such care so much so that I had no pain after surgery or bowel incontinence. His nurse Lupe has been amazing at answering all my questions along the way even though I’m sure I bug her with how many I have because I have such bad anxiety, she still responds nicely. I am still in recovery but I have all the faith that Dr. Lee did a great job and my healing will be good. If anything does happen in my recovery I will still go back to Dr. Lee because he has been so wonderful. Highly recommend!

There are not enough words to praise Dr Lee. In all my years I have never been more impressed with a Doctor as I am with him. Dr Lee has the absolute BEST bedside manner I have ever experienced. Dr Lee is kind, compassionate, professional, and makes you feel like you are the most important person in the world. I was referred to him and so very grateful that I was. I was in horrible pain and his office got me in to see him the very next day and I was in surgery two days later. His office staff are wonderful and compassionate. Dr Lee is a excellent Surgeon and as embarrassing as this was for me, he made sure my dignity was protected, he made me feel safe, and treated me with the utmost care and respect. I would highly recommend him to anyone in search of a Doctor that sets the Gold Standard in a Provider. I am grateful to him and truly Blessed to be a patient of his. Thank you so much Dr. Lee and staff, it would be near impossible to believe that any office could out shine you and yours. There are not enough words to praise Dr Lee.

Don’t let him near you , he needs a proctologist , as he is the biggest rear end I’ve ever met, very unclear and unsure what to do .

Great Doctor

This was hands down the worst experience I’ve ever had with a doctor. Dr.Lee was brash, and arrogant from the second he walked in the door. When speaking about my condition with me (which includes a VERY serious assault background) Dr.Lee seemed annoyed, and told me when I cried that I needed to “separate” my emotions from the physical. My rectal exam was the WORST and most painful exam I’ve ever gotten. The lube was pretty much empty and you could tell that Dr.Lee was attempting to use every last bit as possible. My bottom BLED and continues to bleed since this visit. Dr.Lee did NOT ask a female Nurse to come in during my rectal exam. He assumed who was with me was My husband and started the exam. I was so in shock and pain that I didn’t say anything. Please please please do NOT come to this Dr. I paid 200 to be ridiculed and told that my issues were “emotional” but that the situation down below was “really bad”. I will be looking for another Doctor. Females PLEASE be weary.

No surgery yet but have been scheduled. Really liked his personality, demeanor and professionalism. Explained procedure and expectations. Thank you Dr. Lee.

Great doctor! I had my gall bladder surgery with him in February, 2020. Very caring and professional.

His is a miracle worker I had a bad situational he worked on me with total great results. He is by far the best surgeon ever I would recommend the man to anyone. He will have a special place in my life forever ????????????????????????????????????????

I just wanted to say thank you to Dr Lee.. my father had a very complicated life threatening gastric problem to the point I was on the brink of losing my Dad.. through the hard work and steady hands of Dr Lee his life has been saved.. 5 stars will never amount to the debt and gratitude I owe this man!

Dr Lee is an excellent surgeon. He explained everything to me in detail and was very thorough in answering all my questions. His staff is the best. Awesome office and I would recommend them to my friends and family. Thank you, Dr Lee and team!

Dr. Lee and his staff were fantastic. He is a fantastic surgeon. I highly recommend him.

Best Dr ever. His bedside manner is impeccable. He took his time with me and made sure my husband and I fully understand. Totally recommend him

Amazing! He came highly recommended and it was all true! Intelligent, communicates with you very clearly and does amazing work. I am very thankful for Dr.Lee!!

Doctor Lee is one of most compassionate, patient, conscientious, caring doctor you'll ever find! He does his job and he does it extremely well!!!

Been a patient for a couple years. The staff is professional and friendly. They remember me by face and name. They clearly care for people and endeavor to provide high quality, empathetic care. I had a string of bad luck healthwise, just drew the big straw in the bad luck lottery. Dr. Lee fixed my problems. Dr. Lee explained the pros and cons plus the different possible complications in a clear and easy to understand fashion while exhibiting care. Before and after the procedures, yes I had to have multiple thanks to the bad luck lottery, he checked in and always had positive and encouraging words. The work was done with utmost focus and expertly executed. One of the possible complications was incontinence. Months later now, I have zero issues. I am still healing, so there are healing issues, but normal healing time is 6 months and Im about 1/3 complete. That said, to not be incontinent is a result of his expert abilities. Some words about insurance. In the healthcare industry, if there is a bad guy, its your insurance company. They do not exist to provide you care, they exist to make money. They construct their business to find ways to make it difficult to receive care, pay for care, and will do everything they can to refuse payment. There is nothing any provider is able to do to help. Remember this if you have problems. Ill go back if I have any other needs. To the staff, thank you for your care. This was a very difficult time, emotionally and physically, and you all made it so much more bearable. Been a patient for a couple years. The staff is professional and friendly.

Dr. Lee performed emergency appendectomy on husband Tuesday night. He has a great bedside manner. My husband is better and on his way to recovery.

Complicated communication process due to arrogance and temperamental. Keep looking as you can secure a better doctor.

Love, love Dr. Lee!! He has helped both my husband and I. Have done several routine procedures and surgeries! Highly recommend! Super nice!

I'm on Medicare/United Health. When I called to make an appointment with Dr. Lee, I made sure he took my insurance. The day of the surgery. Dr. Lee followed me into surgery. I heard him talk to the person wheeling me that he had a task to do with his child that A.M. Once asleep he must have turned my surgery over to a Fall Creek Surgeon who did not take my insurance. I rec'd a bill from Fall Creek Surgical for his services provided. I had no say who would do the surgery or costs involved.

Dr Lee is everything you could ask of a doctor. Thorough, kind, timely, a great listener, expert in his field. I would definitely recommend him if you are seeking a doctor in his specialty.

Dr. Lee is amazing. Had double hernia surgery 3 days ago and followed exact instructions and already get around pretty much like normal. Was very nervous before going in and he made me feel at ease! Great Doctor!

I had been having pain in my side for over a month. Two ct scans showed that I was normal, but Dr. Lee trusted that something was abnormal by the continued pain. He performed a diagnostic laparoscopy where he found the source of my pain with minimal incisions. The recovery was quick and he made me feel well taken care of, I would recommend him to anyone wanting a professional and kind surgeon.

I had laparoscopic umbilical hernia surgery preformed by Dr. Lee today and it ended up 100% AWESOME!!! I'am VERY particular about any placement of any thing on my body (scars and tattoos for example) and so I asked him to try and make the incisions to be uniform as possible. Dr. Lee did such a wonderful job that my stomach and belly button looks so great! I would highly recommend Dr. Lee to anyone for their surgery in his field of practice. Thank you Dr. Lee.

Dr Lee is a really fine Doctor. I had surgery a month ago and I can tell you he is a great surgeon. I was very worried and he was very kind to explain exactly what to expect. If you need hemorrhoid surgery he is the one to go to.

Dr. Lee performed a surgery for me that is not part of his normal speacialty but decided to help me with a device removal for me that was put in years ago and problematic that was no longer in use and not something he put in but removed all of it with care. I'm very impressed with doctor Lee and his will to help and would refer him to anyone in my family or my church thank you Dr. Lee for helping me with a 10 year problem that was a disaster for me in my life from the very beginning.

Dr. Lee is an amazing doctor. I have never had a doctor that gives you his undivided attention like Dr Lee has done. From my first (unscheduled/semi emgergency) visit to his office I was so impressed with his bedside manners. Took the time to fully explain the gallbladder and the removal of it. Then surgery which he again explained everything to me and post surgery to my family. His office staff at Texas Healthcare is amazing as well. Thank you to my family physician for sending me to him.

I have been seeing Dr Lee for over 4 years. Dr Lee is compassionate, professional and very easy to talk with. He takes the time that is needed to care for his patients. His staff is great! I am down to once a year visits, and look forward to my next one!!

Dr Lee speaks over you. His staff is miserable and rude, probably because Dr Lee noticibly treated them very disrespectfully. He seems to think he is better than everyone. The scary part is when he talked to me he seemed on edge, but i noticed he was able to hide most of it. I decided to go elsewhere and have had a great experience with a different doctor. Dont let yourself think this is ok. Not all doctors are like this. Dont just go to anybody, shop around. Surgery is a big deal.

Nothing but great things to say about Dr. Lee! His administrative staff, on the other hand is horrible. They are rude and respond to call backs at a snails pace if at all. They act like the patient owes them something and when you call them out about lying, they get more rude and brush you off. Getting through the maze of ineptness is frustrating, tiresome and unnecessary. He should terminate them all and replace them with staff that is eager to work and still have some passion for their job.

Dr. Lee not only repaired the hernia that showed up on the CT scan, but also found other hernias and adhesions which he fixed, and a weak place in my colon that he strengthened with stitches. I appreciate his thoroughness and concern and skill. He answers all my questions with patience and detail. My digestive health will be better than it has been in several years and I am thankful to Dr. Lee for that.
