Sarah S. Lee, MD

• Multiple Myeloma

Sarah Lee, M.D., long dreamed of being a physician, simply because she wanted to help people. She guides her patients in navigating the challenges of treatment, putting a priority on being an active listener. That way, she can understand patients’ goals and empower them to make informed decisions about their treatment.

Dr. Lee is an oncologist/hematologist specializing in plasma-cell disorders such as myeloma and amyloidosis. By the time she joined City of Hope in 2023, she had co-authored 12 peer-reviewed biomedical publications and was site principal investigator for seven active clinical trials. She was previously on the faculty at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. Before medical school, she served as a clinical research coordinator at a cancer center. Dr. Lee has earned such honors as the Merit Award from the American Society for Clinical Oncology's Conquer Cancer Foundation and an appointment as chief quality improvement fellow during her training at Cleveland Clinic.

Her pastimes include enjoying the outdoors with her two rescue pups, spending time with family and friends, and traveling.
