Dr. James Lee provides his skill, experience and the complete range of diagnostic and therapeutic GI services to patients in Orange, Tustin, Anaheim, Irvine, Newport Beach, CA and close-by locations. Services include:
Colonoscopy – Colonoscopy is the “gold standard” procedure for detecting colorectal cancer and other diseases of the colon and rectum and for removing precancerous colon polyps. Dr. Lee has performed over 10,000 colonoscopies. He is also adept at finding colorectal cancer in the terminal ileum – beyond the scope of the typical colonoscopy. And his colonoscopy prep is more comfortable for patients.
ERCP, or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography – A diagnostic technique using an advanced guide wire that is less invasive. ERCP decreases risk of pancreatitis, as proven by many clinical research studies. Unlike other specialists who do ERCP in a more invasive manner, Dr. Lee’s technique offers minimal scarring or no scarring at all.
Capsule endoscopy – An amazing pill-sized camera is small enough to be swallowed to help your gastroenterologist zero in on the cause of unexplained gastrointestinal bleeding. It aids in the evaluation of Crohn’s disease and celiac (sprue) disease, particularly in areas that are difficult to visualize with standard endoscopy.
Hemorrhoid treatment – Dr. Lee uses an advanced, nonsurgical banding technique to eliminate hemorrhoids without surgery or pain.
Stents (colonic or esophageal) – These help patients with blockages avoid surgery. Thanks to Dr. Lee’s skill, his patients can typically return to normal function and eating habits very quickly.
BRAVO™ – This procedure measures the amount of acid reflux and is particularly helpful for accurately diagnosing GERD in patients with esophageal reflux or acid reflux.
Management of Liver Diseases – Dr. Lee helps patients suffering from liver diseases including fatty liver disease, autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, hemochromatosis, Wilson’s disease as well as drug-induced liver injury.
