Scoring in the top 99.8 percentile of her dental Admission Test, she was accepted by the University of Connecticut, School of Dental Medicine. Previously having completed her Ph.D. in the field of medical research at Albert Einstein School of Medicine (New York), she was well prepared for her dental studies.
Graduating with honors from dental school in 2002, she was immediately accepted into the endodontic (root canal therapy) residency program at the University of Connecticut, School of Dental Medicine. She chose the three year residency program instead of the more frequently chosen two year program. So that she would be trained and experienced not just the usual level of complexity of root canal diagnosis/therapy, but also for the extremely difficult complex cases that are encountered in the real world.
Recognized for her insight, ability, and accomplishments, the prestigious dental journal, Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Endodtology, published research work done by Dr. Lee. She was also recognized for her accomplishments by the American Association of Endodontology, an honor only granted to ten endodontic residents nationally each year.
Appreciated and loved by many, patients and referring dentist alike, she is known for her 'can do' and 'going the extra mile'. For those in need, availability and competence is seen daily in her practice.

Dr. Lee is extremely professional, caring and informative. She relieved me of my pain. I had a root canal completed and she went straight to work getting me fixed up. Her and her staff are very detailed. Their office is very clean and the window view from the room was relaxing.

Professional staff, friendly environment, thorough procedure. My pain level was 15 on a scale of 1 to 10. She got me in that night! Very satisfied with her service.

Clean and very nice office. Didn't have to wait long at all to get an appointment. Even though my face was swollen & in pain from the abscessed tooth, I was still TERRIFIED by the possibility of pain from getting a Root Canal, but didn't feel a thing. Dr. Amy Lee has definitely changed my view of the Dentist and helped me overcome my 30 years of fear.

I had a root canal doing last Thursday. Dr Lee is unbelievable, when woke up Friday morning, I had to remind myself that I had a root canal done on Thursday. By Saturday, I felt like a new person. If I could, I would get Dr Lee a ten star rating. You are the best

I've been here twice, Dr. Lee and staff do an excellent job. Their work involves people and their dental wellbeing. For example patients respond differently to novocaine and may require more time to treat. Dr. Lee and staff have the patience to properly handle this situation in the best manner for the patient in the chair. As stated by others on the subject of time, I will gladly wait for proper care which has on 2 occasions been provided to me. I will not take a vehicle to a place that does quick oil changes and repairs in a hurry and I certainly don't want any rush when I'm in the chair seeking dental care.

I was referred to this endodontist by my family dentist, I don't commonly leave reviews but I felt compelled to since I was so disappointed especially considering that this dentist has a majority of great reviews I expected much better care. Dr Lee tried removing my temporary crown, which was causing great pain, very roughly without warning and when I started to cry she just kept going and explaining what my options were in between my sobs. As a nurse myself, you don't try to relate important information while a patient is crying first of all, also trying to ask them questions like "does this hurt? Does this hurt?" My answer was, "Yes, it all hurts." She then said, "You have a fear of dentists." I said, "No, I don't". I have never had such an awful experience, I left the office crying in pain and had no action plan as she told me to not make an appointment for a root canal or any procedure until they spoke to my family dentist. Well my family dentist called me a couple hours later stating that I had told Dr. Lee's office that I wanted to be seen elsewhere, THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN. They completely passed the buck, but not before charging me an $85 exam fee that insurance doesn't cover. I was so disappointed by this visit, I absolutely would not recommend this dentist.

Every single thing about my experience with Dr. Lee and her staff was excellent! From the calming atmosphere to the tactics the assistants use to deter you from focusing on the pain from numbing shots. I'm terrified of dental work and it helped so much that I was spoken to throughout my procedures about what to expect and how much longer things would take. I will definitely recommend to everyone I know!!

This woman did not address my pain, I actually left the office in more pain than when I walked in. This endodontist charged me an $85 exam fee to send me out of the door with no cause to the problem and no solution. I was handed back to my family dentist with no further appointment, so disappointed.
