Meet Dr. Lee

Dr. Lee brings warmth, compassion, and a lifelong passion for healthcare to every patient she meets. Born and raised in South Korea, her journey toward becoming a dentist started early—shaped by a strong family legacy in both medicine and dentistry spanning three generations.

​

From a young age, Dr. Lee spent time volunteering at her father’s orthodontic office. These early experiences not only introduced her to the world of dentistry but also sparked a deep appreciation for the relationships built between patients and providers. Helping others smile—both through treatment and genuine connection—quickly became her dream.

Encouraged by her parents to explore the world with curiosity and independence, Dr. Lee made the bold move to the United States by herself at just 15 years old. She embraced her new environment with enthusiasm and determination, going on to earn her Bachelor of Science in Molecular and Cellular Biology from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She continued her education at Boston University and obtained Master of Science in Medical Science degree, and then Nova Southeastern University College of Dental Medicine in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where she earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree. It was there she met her future husband, Dr. Kim—her classmate and now dental partner in both life and practice.

​

Dr. Lee is passionate about providing personalized, gentle care to patients of all ages, with a special interest in pediatric and cosmetic dentistry. She completes numerous hours of continuing education each year to stay on the cutting edge of dental advancements, and is especially focused on creating positive experiences for both young and adult patients. Her calming presence and sincere approach help patients feel at ease, and many families request to see her specifically for her gentle touch and kind demeanor. Whether she’s caring for a child at their very first dental visit or helping an adult restore their confidence through a brighter smile, Dr. Lee approaches every appointment with honesty, empathy, and clinical excellence. She feels truly privileged to make a lasting impact on her patients’ oral health—especially when it means helping kids build a foundation for lifelong dental wellness.

​

Outside the office, Dr. Lee is a proud mom to her 2-year-old daughter, Doah. Her family enjoys exploring the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. She’s also become an avid baseball fan thanks to her husband—and fun fact: she attended a game the day before her daughter was born!

​

Dr. Lee looks forward to welcoming you and your family to the practice, and creating a dental experience that’s both comforting and empowering.
