Dr Jonathan K. Lee

Dr. Jonathan K. Lee grew up in Los Angeles and graduated from UCLA with a degree in Microbiology and Molecular Genetics in 1998. Subsequently, his interest in the microbial world led him to conduct research on the relationship between oral bacteria and systemic disease at the UCLA School of Dentistry with a National Institute of Health (NIH) grant. Motivated by his desire to apply his research focus clinically to help people suffering from dental disease, he went on to pursue his doctorate in dental surgery (DDS), which he received from UCLA in 2005. Upon obtaining his dental degree and license to practice in California, he embarked on a General Practice Residency in Bronx, NY at St. Barnabas Hospital, where he gained valuable practical skills in all facets of clinical dentistry and strengthened his belief in treating patients with integrity and respect. Dr. Lee has been practicing in L.A. for more than 15 years, most of them in the city of Montebello. Treating and caring for the hard working local community compelled him to recently acquire an existing office that has served Montebello for more than 30 years. Dr. Lee firmly believes in delivering quality care with a gentle touch, ethics, and transparency. And he greatly appreciates his patients for entrusting in him for their dental health needs. When he's not caring for his patients, he enjoys traveling with his wife and dog, Beany as well as attending music concerts and UCLA football games.
