Patient Reviews
Nov 21, 2017
I have much gratitude to this doctor. I was diagnosed with breast cancer, and at that time I felt lost and helpless because as a patient you have very little control over the process. But, Dr. Lee Char personally answered my concerns and questions by phone. She made me feel connected to the process that was unfamiliar and scary. She is completely caring and dedicated to her patients, and she did a beautiful job on my mastectomy, leaving my skin alive and ready for an implant. The best.
