Dr. Paul H. Lee is excited to return to North Carolina and provide compassionate, high-quality care to the Triangle community. Originally from South Korea, Dr. Lee moved to Greensboro, NC at the age of 10. His connection to the Triangle area deepened while attending high school at the NC School of Science and Mathematics in Durham, followed by UNC Chapel Hill, where he double majored in biology and economics with a minor in chemistry.
Dr. Lee’s passion for dentistry and medicine took root during his volunteer dental mission trips to Honduras. He later earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery from Columbia University, where he discovered his passion in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery while assisting in craniofacial and corrective jaw surgeries.
He pursued further professional training at New York University, earning his Doctor of Medicine (MD) and completing his Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Residency. Over the course of his six-year residency, Dr. Lee had the privilege of treating diverse patient populations at institutions including NYU Langone Medical Center, Bellevue Hospital, Manhattan Veteran Affairs Hospital, and the NYU College of Dentistry. His dedication and expertise led to his final year as the executive chief resident at NYU Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.

He has also lectured at national conferences and is committed to utilizing the latest proven technologies to improve patient outcomes. He is bilingual and proficient in Korean.
