Since joining the staff at MGH, Dr. Lee has been engaged in translational studies of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from peripheral blood, using a new technology developed at MGH. Our hope is that this "CTC-Chip" may have clinical usefulness for cancer patients. In addition to seeing patients, Dr. Lee is also interested in clinical trials of new drugs to treat genitourinary cancers.
Dr. Lee is an amazing doctor. I think he's a role model doctor. So he's a great... he has a great personality and I always love being seen by him. Thank you. Bye bye.
Keep up the good work
Dr. Lee is an excellent and caring physician who has successfully treated me for a number of years.
I've been a patient of Dr. Richard M. Lee's for a few years now, and he, as far as I'm concerned, he's been taking excellent care of me. He's one of the best doctors I think you have in your system. And he always listens. He's polite. He's professional. And he cares about the patients. And he gives me great care. And I just want to tell you that. ... Read More
Very good doctor, thank you very much for your care and blessings to all of you, amen, amen
Dr Lee was informative, empathetic and patient. He answered all my questions. I never felt rushed.
Professional. Good listener. Feel well cared for.
I was very impressed with Dr. Lee's focus not only on the particular issue as to which I consulted with him, but also more generally my access to healthcare because Mass General's, the practitioner that I was seeing at Mass, and my PCP dropped me like a stone, and Dr. Lee was very helpful and sympathetic in efforts to help me find another.
This was a virtual meeting. Doctor Lee has been treating me for my condition for many years This was a followup we have periodacly to review my monitoring tests Great meeting
I chose to go to mass general because the dr at st. V's wasn't explaining things well and was t listening. The dr's we met with at mass general were amazing! They listened to my concerns and gave me accurate information on treatment. This made me feel very confident in their abilities
