Dr. Joung Lee was born in South Korea and came over to the States when he was 22 after finishing his military service as a Marine. He attended Georgia Tech and earned his Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry degree with the highest honor. While in college, Dr. Lee worked as a local dental assistant and found his passion in dentistry. He obtained his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree at Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, FL with oral surgery honor and won the Senior Dental Student Award from the Academy of General Dentistry. Following his move to San Antonio in 2015, he has been practicing general dentistry with significant experience in implant and cosmetic dentistry. As a leading local Dentist in San Antonio, Dr. Lee has been taking thousands of hours of continuing education courses to learn the state of the art techniques and is always looking for opportunities to advance his skills and better serve his patients. That’s one of the reasons why other dentists and their family members come to Dr. Lee’s office as patients.
