We began our journey in May 2024, went through two egg retrievals, and had our first embryo transfer in December of the same year. At the age of 44, I was blessed to give birth to a very healthy baby girl in mid-August this year. None of this would have been possible without Dr. Lee and the incredible staff. Their dedication, professionalism, and genuine care meant everything to us. They helped our family welcome a precious child who may have been our last chance, and for that, we are deeply and sincerely grateful.My husband and I had been trying to conceive for a year and a half before seeking fertility treatment.

Initially, we consulted another specialist for six months without success. We then decided to seek a second opinion and found Dr. Lee. Dr. Lee and his team took a thorough approach, carefully evaluating our family history and lifestyle. Based on their recommendations, we made specific changes and were subsequently scheduled for an IUI procedure. We were thrilled to become pregnant on our first attempt! Our baby is now 7 weeks old. Throughout our journey, Dr. Lee's staff were exceptionally friendly, responsive, and supportive, addressing all our questions and concerns. We're deeply grateful for their expertise and care. We highly recommend Dr. Lee and his team to family and friends struggling with fertility issues."Dr. Lee is God sent; we owe him the thankyou and all the gratitude.

By the grace of God we found Dr. Lee. He is knowledgeable, full of positivity and most importantly not pushing for IVF/IUI (like how other fertility clinics were treating us). He was our guide, doctor and mentor. He is not about money but all about helping his patients like us. I fall lack of vocabulary to thank him and say good about him. All the blessings to him and his team. Thanks, MadhuriI had a wonderful experience at the fertility clinic with Dr. Lee. He is extremely nice, and his nursing team is also very friendly and caring.

After having two spontaneous miscarriages, Dr. Lee performed an ultrasound and believed that I could still get pregnant naturally. Following his advice, I became pregnant. Even though I didn't go through IVF, Dr. Lee and his team were dedicated to monitoring my first trimester until I found a suitable OB. I am so grateful me and my husband met Dr. Lee and his team, the diet treatment he instructed us to do is really helpful.Highly recommend Dr. Lee and the entire nursing staff at Fertility Care of OC.

As a lesbian couple we were never treated differently than any other couple. Its very important to feel comfortable whomever you decide on as an IVF doctor, and from the moment we had our first consultation with Dr. Lee we felt completely at ease. His knowledge and ability to answer questions were very impressive. I cant say enough about the rest of his team of staff. With frequent visits and ease of scheduling appointments, they make you feel like a first priority. Its a beautiful challenging journey and were so thankful we chose Fertility Care in Brea to help us on our path.Best fertility doctor Orange county and maybe all of California.

We went to our consultation with our medical records and wanted to get Dr. Lee's opinion. He was optimistic with us, yet honest and truthful with our situation. We appreciated the fact that he encouraged us to get other opinions from other specialists and we didn't feel pressured to use his practice to conceive. We decided to go with Dr. Lee and loved the experience. His office is rather old (a nicer office would have been icing on the cake), but definitely not a deal breaker. Dr. Lee is an excellent and knowledgeable doctor and his staff (Julie, Mae, Wendy, Sheen and Rachel) is so friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend the practice to anyone who is need of fertility care!Dr Lee gets an honest history from you, and if you’re open with him, he respectfully offers his recommendations, the process of going through the procedure, what happens after and…Dr Lee gets an honest history from you, and if you’re open with him, he respectfully offers his recommendations, the process of going through the procedure, what happens after and what would need to occur once time comes to use the eggs...He said hello when I was waiting in the lobby, he will explain to you the best recommendation, his own experience/practice and possible options for the future.He [Dr. C.

I have PCOS and am also overweight, but he was never discouraging about my chances to get pregnant. He put together a plan that involved diet changes and started my treatment in the least aggressive way to determine my body’s starting point for becoming pregnant. In other words, he would gather information in each attempt and adjust treatment accordingly. And with each subsequent cycle, he would make careful consideration to the adjustments of my treatment.As a patient, I was treated with dignity, respect, and kindness.

I always felt taken care of and I could tell that he started our treatment with the least invasive procedure (IUI).
