His journey through cancer and encounters with compassion-less care led him to severe depression and thoughts of suicide. It opened his eyes to the life-saving benefits of compassionate care. Fortunately, a deeply kind and caring physician renewed Lee’s will to live and inspired him to create “The C.A.R.E. Effect Movement.” Now a man on a mission, Lee has discovered his true life’s purpose: to inspire, motivate and challenge medical professionals to provide nothing less than their most compassionate care for their patients, colleagues, hospitals, and most importantly—themselves.
