About me
Hello, my name is Dr. Arthur Lee. I’m glad to have the opportunity to present my credentials to you and share other information about myself. It’s very important that you feel comfortable with your personal physician, and I hope this page will help you to start to get to know me.
Biography
I was raised in San Marino, California. I went to Pasadena Polytechnic High School and then went to Stanford University for my undergraduate studies. Northern California was fantastic, and I stayed at Stanford for medical school and orthopaedic surgery residency. I then moved to Manhattan, New York, to complete a fellowship in hand and upper extremity surgery at Hospital for Special Surgery.
About my practice
For me, a career in medicine is a very special opportunity to connect with and help people in a meaningful way, not only by utilizing my medical skills and knowledge, but also by listening and responding to what my patients need. I consider it an honor and privilege to serve others in this capacity.
How I thrive
I believe in the Kaiser Permanente model of total health in mind, body, and spirit. I try to keep in shape by swimming, playing golf and tennis, and surfing.
