Get to know Family Physician Dr. Samuel C. Lee, who serves patients in Texas.

A seasoned family physician, Dr. Lee has been in private practice since 2000, where he has had the opportunity to make a positive impact on the lives of his patients. His approach goes beyond diagnosing and treating illnesses; he actively encourages his patients to take control of their health and educates them on effective strategies to enhance their overall well-being. With a focus on preventive care, he empowers his patients with the knowledge and tools they need to improve their quality of life.

Originally from Fort Worth, he attended Eastern Hills High School and Texas Wesleyan University, before pursuing his medical education at the University of Osteopathic Medicine and Health Sciences, graduating in 1994. His passion for family practice led him to complete his residency in Fort Worth in 1997, solidifying his commitment to the local community.

Passionate about his profession, the doctor is board-certified in family medicine by the American Osteopathic Board of Family Physicians (AOBFP). The AOBFP is an organization that provides board certification to qualified osteopathic physicians (D.O.) who specialize in delivering comprehensive primary care for patients of all ages, genders, and addressing all parts of the body (family physicians).

Actively involved in the Hispanic community for over two decades, Dr. Lee has taken mission trips to Mexico and Central America, providing much-needed medical assistance to underserved populations.

Family medicine is a medical specialty devoted to comprehensive health care for people of all ages. The specialist is called a family physician or family doctor. A family physician is often the first person a patient sees when seeking healthcare services. They examine and treat patients with a wide range of conditions and refer those with serious ailments to a specialist or appropriate facility.

When he is not in the office, Dr. Lee cherishes spending quality time with his family, creating cherished memories and strengthening their bond. He is also an avid traveler, embracing the opportunity to explore different cultures and broaden his horizons.
