How can this be?I have trained residents for 40 years and Carol was bright, hard working and a joy to make rounds with...she embodied the principles of Aequinamitas...the old fashioned premise that the patient comes first...her skill and compassion all too rare in the world of corporate medicine....surely a grave blow to all who knew her...i cannot see why the world has to suffer such loss

Words are difficult at a time like this. Dr. Lee was an amazing person and ER doctor. I was honored to work with her at two hospitals. She cared not only for her patients but also her nurses. She will be missed terribly, but never forgotten. May her family find comfort during this difficult time.

Carol was a beautiful person both on the inside and out, she had an infectious laugh that was contagious, I will always remember that about Carol. You could always hear her before you saw her by the click, click of her clogs! Rest in peace, within the Lords embrace Carol, we will miss you!

I always loved seeing your smiling face come through the ED doors. I will miss the pit pat your little shoes made on the floor as you rounded the halls. Your great sense of humor made the days better. We all miss you dearly. My prayers to the Lee family.

My dear sweet friend Carol I do not have enough words to say how I feel about you and our friendship. The day we met in the ER for the first time will forever be ingrained in my mind and also make everyone laugh when they hear it again and again. I will forever admire your skill and dedication as a fantastic ER doctor! I can never express how grateful I am for you introducing me to our gym family as well.This world and myself were much better with you here. To the Woman I know who made me a better person and loved me unconditionally,I will miss you forever. I love you with all my heart and hope that you are a peace. You will forever hold a special place in my heart and watch over me as my guardian angel!

Dr. Lee,
I am happy to have known you and I was so saddened when I was told of your passing. I always admired your medical judgement and your feisty personality! You made crazy days in the ER a little more tolerable. The ER wont be the same without the clicking of your shoes! Rest in peace. You will be dearly missed.
