Dr. Austin Lee specialized in urology for the unique opportunity to serve patients with both medical and surgical treatments. He values the ever-evolving nature of the field and the ability to make a significant difference for patients navigating conditions that range from quality-of-life concerns to life-threatening diagnoses.
Dr. Lee is trained in the latest innovations, techniques, and procedures across the wide breadth of urology. This allows him to provide individualized treatment options for patients to best suit their disease characteristics and their personal goals. Dr. Lee finds it immensely gratifying to see the progression in his patients from first hearing about their concerns and developing a treatment plan to seeing improvements in their quality of life after treatment.
Outside of work, Dr. Lee likes to spend his time enjoying outdoor activities such as rock climbing, camping, and bicycling. He also enjoys exploring local music shows or discovering a new cafe. Dr. Lee appreciates Portland’s livability, its strong sense of community, and close access to the outdoors.
