Services Offered

Dr. Lee’s cardiology practice at her Flushing, New York office provides comprehensive cardiovascular diagnostic and management services for adult patients. Her practice combines the precision of evidence-based cardiology with the holistic values of osteopathic medicine, ensuring patients receive thorough, whole-body cardiovascular care.

Cardiovascular disease evaluation and diagnosis is the foundation of Dr. Lee’s practice. She conducts comprehensive cardiac assessments for patients presenting with chest pain, palpitations, shortness of breath, high blood pressure, and other symptoms suggestive of heart or vascular disease. Her diagnostic workup includes electrocardiograms, echocardiography, arterial Doppler studies, and stress testing, providing a thorough picture of each patient’s cardiovascular status.

Coronary artery disease management is a primary clinical focus for Dr. Lee, with real-world data confirming it as one of her most frequently treated conditions. She evaluates patients with known or suspected CAD, interprets coronary angiography results, manages medical therapy, and coordinates interventional or surgical referrals when appropriate. Her management approach emphasizes cardiovascular risk reduction through medication optimization, lifestyle modification counseling, and close follow-up monitoring.

Cardiac arrhythmia evaluation and management is another core service. Dr. Lee evaluates patients with irregular heart rhythms including atrial fibrillation and other arrhythmias, initiates appropriate rhythm or rate control strategies, and manages anticoagulation therapy to reduce stroke risk in at-risk patients. Ambulatory cardiac monitoring including Holter monitors is used to capture arrhythmia patterns in patients with intermittent symptoms.

Structural heart disease and valvular cardiology services include the evaluation and management of aortic stenosis, valvular heart disease, and congenital heart conditions. Dr. Lee performs and interprets echocardiographic studies to assess valve function and structural abnormalities, and coordinates with surgical colleagues for patients requiring valve repair or replacement procedures.

Pre-procedure cardiac evaluations and surgical clearance services are offered for patients requiring cardiovascular assessment before undergoing elective or urgent surgical procedures. Dr. Lee provides comprehensive pre-operative cardiac risk stratification to ensure patient safety and optimize outcomes.

Bilingual cardiology services in English and Chinese are a unique and valuable feature of Dr. Lee’s practice.
