About Me
Dr. Lee returned to New York after completing his fellowship training in Interventional Pain Medicine/Spine at Valley Pain Specialists, Bethlehem, PA. Prior to fellowship, Dr. Lee obtained his residency training in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at NYU Langone Medical Center, where he was elected Chief Resident in his second year. He has extensive training in the non-surgical management of spine and joint disorders, fluoroscopic-guided injections, and minimally invasive pain procedures. He is board certified by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and the American Board of Pain Medicine. He uses his expertise to accurately diagnose and create a multimodal treatment plan in order to help patients achieve their highest level of function and quality of life.
Outside of work, Dr. Lee enjoys watching baseball, traveling, and spending time with his family.

Patient Experience Star Ratings and Comments
The Patient Experience Star Rating reflects our patients’ perception of how well their Mount Sinai provider communicated with them during an office visit. The Star Rating is based on patient responses to three questions on a patient experience survey, a standardized questionnaire sent to verified patients and distributed by a third party vendor, Press Ganey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score.
Industry Relationships
Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device, biotechnology companies, and other outside entities to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their outside financial relationships.
Dr. Lee has not yet completed reporting of Industry relationships.
Mount Sinai’s faculty policies relating to faculty collaboration with industry are posted on our website. Patients may wish to ask their physician about the activities they perform for companies.
