About Dr. Lee:
Dr. Eric Lee is a Physical Therapist from the University of Southern California. Growing up in Sacramento, he participated in lacrosse, soccer, and cross country; but lacrosse was always his true passion. He competed at Stanford University while completing his B.S. in Human Biology with an emphasis in Human Performance and Sports Medicine.
Eric’s first exposure to physical therapy occurred at age 14 following a motor vehicle accident. He was determined to return to the lacrosse field, and he worked week in and week out with his PT to regain his function. He knows first hand how much of a journey a major injury can be and how rewarding it is to return to the activities you love.
Throughout his clinical experience, Eric has worked with NFL, MLB, and NBA players both recovering from injury and seeking out that extra competitive edge. In addition to his experience as a physical therapist, Eric has also worked as a personal trainer and strength & conditioning coach. He recently completed a strength & conditioning internship with the UCLA Football team, and he has extensive experience working with the athletes in the West LA College athletic training room. When he’s not nerding out over rehab and performance, you’ll find him at the beach, the golf course, or a concert. He loves taking advantage of all that Miami has to offer.
